Looking for branding in Barrie? Better Businesses is a Canadian agency helping Barrie companies grow through branding that is measured on results, not activity. Barrie is one of Canada's fastest-growing metro areas, and its manufacturing and healthcare businesses compete in one of Ontario's most active markets. We help you win that competition.

Barrie is Simcoe County's gateway to cottage country, and its customers have plenty of choice. A clear, distinctive brand is how Barrie businesses in manufacturing, healthcare and construction stop competing on price and start being chosen on trust.

We research your Barrie competitors, define positioning that owns a specific space in the Ontario market and design a logo and identity system that works on a storefront in Downtown Barrie, a vehicle on the highway and a phone screen.

Deliverables cover everything a growing Barrie business needs: logo files in every format, colour and typography systems, business cards, signage, social templates, ad creative and a guidelines document your whole team can follow.

What is branding?

Branding is the strategic process of defining how a business is perceived: its positioning, name, messaging, logo, colours, typography and visual style. Graphic design turns that identity into marketing materials, digital assets and print collateral.

Barrie had 147,829 residents in the 2021 Census, up 4.5% from 141,434 in 2016, living in 55,316 occupied private dwellings on 99.01 square kilometres. The median age is 39.2 and the median household income in 2020 was $93,000, so households here have more to spend than in many Ontario cities of similar size.
