Raise Kit™ is a complete brand identity, a custom pitch deck and a live landing page, made by our senior team in less than four weeks from the date of your raise.
Everything is built on one system, so you can make the next deck from it. You walk into the room looking like the company you're describing.
Brand Strategy. Who you are, who you're for and what you say, written down before anything is designed. We appraise your name, mission, values and references, then turn them into a clear brief for the brand. Trademark checks are included where the name needs them.
Full Visual Identity. Logo, icon, colours and type, built as one system that works everywhere. Guidelines live on your own domain, so your team and any designer you hire can build from it.
Custom Pitch Deck. Your story, designed for the room on the new identity. Built as a system, so your own designer can make the next one from it.
Live Website. Your new identity, live online the week after delivery. Somewhere credible to send investors after the meeting.
6 Months of Studio. Six months of access to Longson Studio for creative guidance, helping keep the brand sharp as the company scales.
We've helped dozens of companies maximise their value through their visual communication.
For companies with a proven model + no round to raise.
From £9600 + VAT. Spread payment available.

A few meetings of an hour to an hour and a half. Week one is the strategist's, the design team works from the written brief, and the success manager handles everything in between. Your days stay with the round. The identity also goes to work on the next hire, who sees it before they see anything else.
The logo is the last thing we make. Before it there is the strategy work and the written brief. After it there is the system your own designer builds the next deck from.
Agreed. A weak story inside a strong brand still fails, which is why we take founders who already have a meeting booked. At that point the identity is what stands between your story and the room. A founder who arrives looking smaller than the business gives away more of the company for less money.
It does while the model is unfinished, and the investors who say so are right. Once the meeting is booked it reads as diligence: the founder who arrives looking like the company they are describing has clearly done the work.
After the raise you are rebranding a company people have already met. The round is where the identity does its work. Founders who wait come to us with one day left, pay a premium, and get something that will never be as good as the version made with time.
It gets you about seventy percent. What is missing is the part that understood what the company is, and that is what reads as real in the room.
You will end up managing a freelancer instead of running the company. Founders come to us after this route when the work has come back and they know it is wrong without being able to say why, and by then the date is closer and the fix costs more.
At the level you want, good brand designers come with waitlists and fees a multiple of ours, and the team on your account is rarely their best one. We are built around the weeks before a raise: four weeks, one capped fee, senior attention from the first call to the last.
The deck is built on the identity, so identity first and the deck on top. Done this way the deck still works when the website has to exist a month later.
