FAQs
Where is Hanna Creative Co. located and what areas do you serve?

We are based in Providence, Rhode Island, and work with clients across the United States.

What should a design-focused business look for in a creative studio?
2
The strongest brand experiences are built holistically. Identity, storytelling, digital presence, content, and visibility should reinforce one another rather than operate as separate efforts. For businesses in the design industry, that also requires an understanding of how reputation, relationships, editorial recognition, digital discovery, and visual storytelling work together over time.
What is Hanna Creative Co.'s process and how collaborative is it?
3
No two engagements look exactly the same. We begin by understanding where your brand is today, what you’re building toward, and which disciplines will create the greatest impact. From there, we assemble the right combination of strategy, design, storytelling, digital, and discovery.
We believe the strongest work comes from direct collaboration with the people shaping the business. We ask that key stakeholders and decision-makers remain involved throughout the process, particularly during discovery, strategy, and major creative reviews. Marketing teams, publicists, and other advisors can be valuable collaborators, but they shouldn’t replace direct access to the people ultimately responsible for the brand.
This keeps communication clear, reduces layers of interpretation, and allows decisions to be made with the full context behind them.
What makes Hanna Creative Co. approach different from other agencies?
4
Our work sits at the intersection of creative instinct, strategic thinking, and technology. We understand the nuance of the design industry, from how highly considered services are chosen to how reputation and visibility are built over time. Technology informs how we work and how we measure what is resonating, but we believe the most meaningful brands are still built through human judgment, curiosity, collaboration, and a distinct point of view.

What types of clients does Hanna Creative Co. work with?
6
We work primarily within the design industry, collaborating with interior design firms, architecture firms, luxury residential builders, makers, design brands, trade showrooms, and high-end retailers.
Our specialization gives us a deep understanding of how businesses in this industry grow and build lasting reputations. The path from awareness to engagement is often long and highly considered, shaped by relationships, referrals, editorial recognition, digital presence, and trust built over time. We understand that ecosystem and create brands, experiences, and strategies designed to work within it.While our clients vary in size and discipline, they share an appreciation for thoughtful design, strong storytelling, and a distinct point of view.
How long does a typical project take with Hanna Creative Co.?

Timelines vary by scope, but our strongest work comes from full-scale engagements built thoughtfully from the ground up. Branding projects typically take 8 to 12 weeks, while bespoke website projects run 12 to 16 weeks. For ongoing content or social support, we establish a monthly cadence aligned with your goals. For comprehensive engagements that include brand, website, and campaigns, we recommend planning for approximately six months. We do not accommodate rush timelines, as our process is intentionally considered.
Does Hanna Creative Co. offer à la carte services?

We offer both focused engagements and comprehensive brand experiences. Some clients come to us for a specific need, while others engage us across identity, storytelling, digital, and discovery. When services are combined, we structure them intentionally so each discipline builds on the last.
Does hanna creative co. offer ongoing support?
9
Yes. Many of our relationships continue well beyond an initial project engagement. Depending on a client’s needs, ongoing support may include creative direction, website maintenance, digital strategy, content and social media, campaigns, email marketing, search optimization, and brand discovery.
We see this work as stewardship rather than simply maintenance: helping a brand remain relevant, consistent, and responsive as the business evolves.
Does Hanna Creative Co. offer social media strategy and management?
10
Yes. We provide ongoing social media strategy, content development, publishing, and community management for select clients across Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, and Pinterest.
Our approach is rooted in the larger brand rather than treating social media as a separate marketing channel. We consider voice, visual identity, editorial storytelling, audience behavior, and business goals to create a presence that feels cohesive and intentional over time.
We recommend platforms based on the brand, audience, and objectives rather than assuming every business needs to be active everywhere.
Does Hanna Creative Co. create content for social media?
11
Yes. Our social media clients are supported by a multidisciplinary team that includes digital content strategists, content coordinators, brand designers, and video editors, bringing strategy, storytelling, design, and execution together as part of a cohesive creative process.
Content development may include creative direction, copywriting, graphic design, photography, filmmaking, video editing, animation, and other visual assets depending on the engagement. When a project calls for additional expertise, we also collaborate with our trusted network of photographers, filmmakers, writers, stylists, artists, and other specialists.
This team-based approach allows us to see social media as part of the larger brand experience, rather than simply a publishing channel.
How does hanna creative co. approach content strategy?
12
We believe content should do more than keep a brand visible. It should reveal something about the people, thinking, process, and point of view behind the work.
Our content strategies are developed around the larger brand and may span social media, editorial storytelling, email, websites, campaigns, photography, and film. Rather than creating content simply to meet a publishing cadence, we focus on building a thoughtful body of work that strengthens recognition and relevance over time.
how does hanna creative co. approach ai search and brand discovery?
13
The way people discover and evaluate businesses is changing. Traditional search, social media, editorial coverage, digital authority, and emerging AI platforms increasingly work together to shape how a brand is found and understood.
Through Studio Halo, developed by Hanna Creative Co., we help design businesses better understand and strengthen their digital visibility. Our work can include SEO, Answer Engine Optimization (AEO), structured content, AI search optimization, and ongoing brand intelligence designed to reveal how a brand is being seen, found, and understood across an evolving digital landscape.
Technology gives us new ways to understand visibility, but our approach remains grounded in the same principles that have always built meaningful brands: clarity, authority, relevance, and a distinct point of view.
How to branding, storytelling, digital and discovery work together?
14
We see them as interconnected parts of the same brand experience.
Identity establishes how a brand looks, feels, and expresses itself. Storytelling gives it a voice and creates reasons for people to pay attention. Digital brings the brand to life through websites, content, campaigns, and other experiences. Discovery helps ensure the right people can actually find and understand it.
Not every client needs every discipline, but when they work together, each strengthens the others. Our role is to determine the right combination based on where a brand is today and where it wants to go.
Does Hanna Creative Co. produce photography and video?
15
Yes. We approach photography and film as an extension of the brand, with creative direction, editorial thinking, and narrative development shaping the work from the beginning. Depending on the engagement, our role may include concept development, story development, creative direction, production planning, interviews, photography, filmmaking, editing, and post-production.
We collaborate with photographers, filmmakers, stylists, artists, and other specialists selected for the particular perspective and expertise they bring to the project. For larger campaigns and signature brand productions, founder and Chief Creative Officer Roxanne Hanna can provide creative direction throughout the engagement, from initial concept and narrative development through production and final edit.
Our goal is to create a cohesive body of visual storytelling with a distinct point of view, developed to strengthen the larger brand and extend across its digital, editorial, and social presence.
Does Hanna Creative Co. offer logo design only?
16
We generally don’t approach identity as a logo alone. A strong visual identity is a system: typography, color, imagery, graphic language, and other elements working together to create a recognizable and cohesive brand.
For that reason, our identity engagements are designed to establish the broader visual foundation a business needs to communicate consistently across digital and physical touch points.
Can Hanna creative co. work with an existing visual and brand identity?
17
Absolutely. Not every business needs to start over.
We often work with established brands that have strong foundations but need greater clarity, consistency, or evolution. Depending on what already exists, we may refine an identity, expand its visual language, develop messaging, rethink digital experiences, or create new storytelling and content systems around it.
Does Hanna Creative Co. update
or refresh websites they didn’t design and build?
18
Our website maintenance and ongoing support are designed for websites created by Hanna Creative Co., allowing our team to work from a deep understanding of the strategy, structure, design system, and technology behind each site. This continuity helps us protect the integrity of the original work while thoughtfully evolving the digital experience as the brand grows.
For businesses with an existing website, we’re always happy to explore a new website engagement and consider how the next iteration can better support the brand and where it’s headed.
