Swink
Swink is a strategic design and branding company founded right here in Madison, Wisconsin in 2004. Swink was founded with the belief that an efficient, focused team of creatives can deliver a more powerful and targeted brand experience than a large firm. It’s an idea that starts with fewer, better-cared-for clients, and is centered in the strength of direct contact, where we strip away the agency pretense and get down to work, one-on-one. You always have access to the people actually doing the work. No room for miscommunication. No losing the message. We stay on brand and on point because we never lose sight of your vision. Swink works with a diverse portfolio of regional, national, and international companies, in both consumer and business-to-business environments. We have achieved success in crafting engaging, focused brand and marketing materials for companies including Papyrus-Recycled Greetings for American Greetings Company, MasterCraft Boat Company, Wilson Sporting Goods, MachineryLink, Design Concepts, and Aprilaire (Research Products).
