Do you believe your work has value?

Unfortunately, people don’t always buy the best products.

They buy the ones they understand the best. If your marketing doesn’t begin with a clear message that weaves into a cohesive plan, you risk:

  • Unmet potential
  • Being misunderstood
  • Wasted time + money

What our clients say:

We have been working with 14Forty for about a year now and have been extremely pleased at the level of work being produced by the team on behalf of Klüber Lubrication. 14Forty is an extension of our resources and has enabled us to continue and even expand a number of activities that would have been difficult to continue or pursue on our own. The level of service provided is thorough, professional and timely. They understand our brand, our industry, our customer pain points and are able to address and translate these into authentic, useful marketing materials to drive our message.

Christine KeyesOnline Marketing Manager
We loved working with 14Forty. They led us through a messaging workshop and helped our company clarify our message, develop a brand message script, and craft some great email campaigns and lead generator. Just an incredible team of people who truly care about their clients.
Mark Zweigenthal
Mark ZweigenthalDirector of Marketing & Technology
When we contacted 1440, no marketing solutions had worked for us. Every attempt to put marketing campaigns together had resulted in no leads and wasted money. This was a very defeating situation to be in. Since partnering with 1440 and redesigning our website with their methodologies, our leads and subsequent sales have been parabolic. We didn’t think it was possible to have this much success with digital advertising until now. We highly recommend 1440!

This group has been great to work with! 14Forty became VME’s marketing team this year. They did an excellent job working with us to improve our strategy, our messaging, and delivered a fresh website! Looking forward to what we do in 2022!

14FORTY Cares About Your Success

You deserve to be a business owner who’s recognized for your valuable product, service or mission. To do that in today’s distraction-filled culture, you have to have a smart marketing plan that begins with a clear message. Unfortunately, marketing means different things to different people and it’s hard to know what works. It’s easy to feel frustrated.

We’re frustrated too because we believe that good companies deserve to thrive and be known. We know from experience that it’s difficult to find effective marketing help at a good value, which is why we stepped away from corporate roles to focus on giving good companies the strong voice they deserve. Here’s how we do it:

  • Choose one of our proposed plans
  • Relax - because your marketing is taken care of

The 5 Pillars of Visual Branding

What are they and why do they matter?

What are they?

The 5 pillars of Visual Branding are Logos, Typography, Colors, Visuals, and Elements. Each of the 5 pillars are needed for a brand to be fully utilized, recognized, and distinct.

Why do they matter?

These 5 pillars all work in tandem to strengthen and complement one other.

The pillars establish a consistent look and feel that your client (and employees) will instantly be able to recognize and relate to. A brand with 5 strong brand pillars outshines the competition.
