From Small to Big, Since Day One

“Serious Business helped us to formalize and structure our brand and strategy into a unique new brand. The iterative process let us give feedback early and frequently and their moderation of the process was key to distill multiple views into one.”

01. Naming

Less Talk. More Value.

We were tasked with renaming the company from Paua Ventures to SquareOne, a name that better reflects its purpose. The name SquareOne highlights the importance of having a solid start for founders venturing into business.

02. Concept

From Small to Big, Since Day One.

SquareOne’s tagline, “From Day One—We Are SquareOne,” reflects its commitment to providing hands-on support, industry expertise, and long-term partnerships from the start, helping founders solve complex problems in vast markets.

The old brand

New Brand

03. Visual Identity

From Day One, We’re SquareOne.

The logo, “The Growth Square,” features two moving squares that convey a sense of movement and creation. The visual identity is built around a unique color palette and dynamic design that highlights the brand’s collaborative nature.

04. Visual Identity

We hustle. We cold call. We Chase

We prioritized real and approachable imagery over stock photos. To achieve this, we conducted a two-day photoshoot, capturing professional yet genuine images that align with SquareOne’s authentic and hands-on approach.

05. concept

Bringing the Brand to Life

We developed various brand applications, including a website, presentation decks, and social media templates. These elements emphasize SquareOne’s mission and dedication to supporting startups from day one.
