Case study · HCT Consulting Group

How does a new consulting firm look established from the first meeting?

HCT Consulting Group helps healthcare organizations through transformation. We built its brand toolkit, fact sheets, overview deck and information graphics.

The problem

Deep expertise, and nothing to hand a prospect

An emerging firm wins work in meetings. HCT needed materials that explained what it does, looked as experienced as its consultants, and could be updated by the team for each new prospect.

What we did

Three decisions behind the toolkit

HCT logo lockups with layout grid

1. Refine the logo, don't replace it

We balanced the icon and type, and set vertical and horizontal lockups in color, black and white.

Key takeaway: Small fixes to a logo you already use can look new without losing recognition.

2. Turn the method into a picture

A healthcare transformation lifecycle graphic shows each stage of HCT's work on one page.

Key takeaway: If you can draw your process, prospects can repeat it to their boss.

3. A fact sheet the team can fill

A two-page template with set places for expertise, results, differentiators and contact details, plus a pattern built from the logo's shapes.

Key takeaway: Templates keep sales materials consistent after the designer leaves.

Also in this project: an executive overview deck.

Inside the project

Color and black logo versions.

What changed

Before and after, in plain terms

HCT has one logo system, a deck, a lifecycle graphic and a fact sheet template it can reuse for every pitch.
