Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Catchword led our team through a comprehensive rebranding exercise, beginning with the establishment of parameters for both name and identity development. Once we had agreed on messaging, tone, and style for the new brand, they developed a ton of creative names for our consideration, each one supported by a meaningful rationale and explanation for how it tied back to our target positioning and brand personality. 
Honestly, the quality of the creative work was tremendous. They presented scores of names we otherwise would've never imagined ourselves. The identity development work was similarly impressive, making it difficult to choose just one logo to refine and ultimately adopt. 
It's worth mentioning that their team was extremely thoughtful and strategic in thinking about the nature of our business, our unique value proposition (and focus on tail spend payments), and how best to distinguish our company in the market.
They were respectful of our expertise and years in the business, but had strong and compelling creative ideas for how to position the business vis-a-vis competitive offerings. I hate to use this language, they really did push the envelope and help us to see thing in new and different ways. 

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

We've not yet announced our new name and identity, but I can attest to the enormous success of this project. We are in love with our new company name and identity and thankful to Catchword for the outstanding work they did to rebrand our company. We're also thrilled that, while it was outside the scope of this project, we landed on a name for our consumer-facing platform, which will receive a separate brand rollout in 2026. 

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

They did a great job of meeting a tight timeline.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

The creative work itself was impressive. Not only were the names they recommended unexpected and highly creative, but they were so clearly developed with our company and business model in mind. Catchword works with many companies, and it'd be easy for them to probably recycle ideas, but the names they came up with and presented were just so uniquely us, so clearly developed based on who we are what they understood about us. 

The design work was similarly thoughtful, intentional, and creative, each concept more impressive than the last. As I mentioned previously, we had a hard time choosing just one logo!

Are there any areas for improvement or something Catchword could have done differently?

They could be cheaper. :-) But, you get what you pay for, and their work is worth the expense.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Scope of Work – Catchword (February 2025)

Catchword was engaged to support the naming of three new solutions for the Connected Services business unit. For each solution, the process included:

1. A materials review and a briefing meeting to define naming parameters
2. A summary document outlining strategic naming directions
3. One round of name development, generating approximately 500 name options

Key Deliverables:

• An Excel spreadsheet listing all proposed names for each solution
• A curated shortlist of recommended names with rationale for each

The first solution name was required by mid-March, so the project was executed with an accelerated timeline.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Completion of Naming Strategy and Creative Development

Catchword successfully delivered:

1. A portfolio naming strategy for Connected Services, including a creative brief and naming
2. Hundreds of name options for three distinct solutions, with curated shortlists and rationale for each
3. A structured naming convention

These deliverables were aligned with the original scope and timeline, including the urgent need for the first solution name by mid-March.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Catchword consistently delivered on time and also met requests that we submitted on short notice, adapting to changes we had to make along the way.

They always responded with a positive attitude and showed sensitivity to the changes and range of opinions that came up, understandably so, given that these were three completely new solutions for the organization, within a newly formed business unit.

What was your primary form of communication with Catchword?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Their creativity stood out. They generated a wide range of well-supported name options, showing a quick grasp of both the solutions and the company’s brand strategy.

On several occasions, they helped us think beyond our initial boundaries and offered thoughtful recommendations on what would work best for our product portfolio, taking into account the broader product categories and the organization’s overall brand strategy.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Catchword could have done differently?

I don’t think so. They’ve truly been a huge support, and without their help—and their willingness to go above and beyond what was asked, while adapting to changes—we wouldn’t have been able to move the project forward.

• We have worked with Catchword since 2000 as our primary US naming partner.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

In the past year alone, we have hired Catchword to create names for two F&B products and to evaluate the US linguistic and cultural appropriateness of names for a number of other projects, including luxury hospitality, F&B, and furnishings. 

The two products were in the pasta and flour space, both to be sold internationally, with a large market in the US. For name creation engagements, the Catchword team develops names based on a brief that we provide. The Catchword names supplement the names that our team creates and provide range and a US perspective to the name candidates we show our international clients. Deliverable: 100-300+ names with rationales.

We frequently turn to Catchword for name evaluations. Catchword assesses the viability, in terms of spelling, pronunciation, cultural associations, and other factors, of 10-25 names that our team has shortlisted for a project. Deliverable: Evaluation of each name, with explanation of any concerns, from 1 or 2 people.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Catchword’s insights are extremely valuable to ensure that our clients’ companies and products make the desired impression on audiences around the world. Over the years, we have avoided potential missteps because of their input. Our team members are fluent in English, but that is not the same as being a native speaker. Plus, it would be impossible to stay informed about all the cultural trends and memes that are relevant for US customers. The US market is critical for many of our clients, and American English has become the lingua franca for the world markets. Having a partner who can add fresh, creative candidates with an American perspective to our name lists and flag possible problems for the US with the names we have developed gives us peace of mind and greater confidence in our recommendations to international clients. 

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Catchword is very responsive to our needs, which often involve quick turnaround times. They let us know right away if they have questions and deliver everything we ask for on time and on budget.

Our company has worked with Catchword for 25 years. I have come to think of the Catchword creatives we work with as friends, not just colleagues. They are smart, responsive, and generous with their time. Their knowledge of branding and naming makes their insights especially thoughtful and actionable and the names they create both very creative and strategic. It’s fun to work with people who love naming and language as much as I do.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Catchword could have done differently?

I can’t think of any.

Catchword was tasked with rebranding and renaming our firm to reflect our evolving vision and expanded scope of services. The project involved thorough discovery sessions, competitive analysis, creative brainstorming, and iterative feedback cycles. They presented us with a wide range of name options, each supported by strategic rationale and analysis. Key deliverables included a shortlist of vetted name candidates, a final report explaining the decision-making process and recommendations, and additional guidance on preliminary trademark analysis and how the new name could align with our branding goals

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Although we initially aimed to rush the naming process, we ultimately decided to pause and take more time to reflect on this critical decision. Catchword’s work was invaluable in laying the groundwork for when we choose to proceed, and we fully intend to continue working with them. They delivered a strong shortlist of thoughtfully crafted name options. Their thorough process helped us gain clarity on our brand identity and ensured we’re well-prepared to finalize a name when the timing is right.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Catchword’s project management was outstanding. They adhered to the timeline we established and delivered all key items on schedule, even as we pushed for a quick turnaround. Their team was highly responsive to our needs, always available to answer questions, provide updates, or make adjustments based on our feedback. They maintained clear and open communication throughout the process, ensuring we felt supported every step of the way. Their professionalism and flexibility made the entire experience seamless and enjoyable.

Their enthusiasm for our project and their ability to balance big ideas with practical details really made them unique.

Honestly, we had a great experience working with Catchword, and there’s very little we’d suggest improving. They were incredibly responsive to our needs and adapted seamlessly to our timeline. Overall, we’re very happy with their work and look forward to continuing the collaboration!

At this point, we’re quite familiar with Catchword’s process, having worked together several times. Generally speaking, their process involves a lot of discovery work, the creation of naming parameters for the project, multiple rounds of name development and review, and various degrees of name screening. In this case, the process was on an accelerated timeline, and so the Catchword team conducted just one round of name development. But they went all out when they presented their recommended names, presenting them in a very impressive graphical context, including name stories and taglines for each of the names. It really helped our shared client to see just how impactful each of the names could and would be. 

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Both the client and our team were super impressed by Catchword’s name recommendations! The client even had a hard time narrowing down the list for trademark evaluations. It’s really amazing the range of name styles, conceptual thinking, and creativity they demonstrated during this process. And I know that, ultimately, several names cleared the client’s trademark review, providing them with multiple name options to choose from!

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Especially given how fast this project moved, it was critically important that it be managed efficiently, and Catchword was super effective, making sure everyone involved was always up to date, clear on next steps and responsibilities, and confident that we were all going to make the deadline! They made sure to get meetings on the calendar right from the outset, and every deliverable was provided on time and as expected.

Project summary
Catchword was hired as a third party to develop a creative company's brand name and visual identity. They have also collaborated with the internal team on various brand identity projects. 

Feedback summary
Catchword’s name ideas and their process are remarkably honed, resulting in several successful collaborations. Their team is full of attentive professionals who never hesitate to go above and beyond to exceed client expectations. They're also strategic, creative, and highly responsive.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I’m the founder and President of GreyBox, an award-winning creative and design agency based in New York.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Catchword, and what were your goals?

GreyBox and Catchword have collaborated on several company brand development projects in the last few years. Our first collaboration, and the primary focus of this review, involved the creation of a brand name and identity for a biotech company focused on cancer detection. Catchword developed the name and GreyBox developed the identity, though we worked hand-in-hand, very collaboratively, throughout the process. It was during this first collaboration that we got to really know each other, discover both a professional and personal synergy, and and establish a foundation for an ongoing agency partnership.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

A few years ago, Catchword reached out to our team to discuss possible collaborations. They had discovered GreyBox online, appreciated our design work, and were looking to strike up a relationship with an agency like ours. We’re thrilled they did because the partnership has been incredible. There’s a genuine and mutual respect for each other’s process and deliverables, and a really strong cultural fit. We’re like-minded agencies placing an emphasis on doing outstanding work and everything we can to exceed client expectations. Even though the relationship is just a few years old, it feels like our teams have been working together forever.

Describe the scope of their work in detail, including any steps and the final deliverables.

Our combined agencies were responsible for developing a company brand name and visual identity for a shared biotech client. Catchword carried out a full brand naming program, including discovery work, multiple rounds of name development, and trademark vetting of client-preferred names. Our team participated in the naming process, providing input from a design perspective, and reciprocally, Catchword participated in and provided input during the design phase of the process.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

Catchword had a full team working on the name ideation, but our contact was most directly with Mark Skoultchi, one of the agency’s partners.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Now having completed several collaborations with Catchword, I can really understand why they’re the leader in brand name development. Their process is remarkably well honed and their name ideas really inspired, but more than that, they’re just super smart branding professionals and incredible people who place a real importance on doing amazing work and exceeding client expectations. We absolutely love working with them and we look forward to many more collaborations in the future.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

Catchword is an incredibly well-oiled machine. Their team has been through the process of company name development literally hundreds of times, so, project management is, as you would expect, extremely smooth and effective and most of our collaboration took place on Zoom.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Just about everything impresses us about Catchword. They’re very strategic thinkers and incredibly creative wordsmiths, highly responsive and client-oriented, extremely personable, fun people to work with, and true experts in their field. You won’t find a more impressive naming agency anywhere.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Nope.

We engaged Catchword to develop a brand name for a new pet diagnostic platform. Their team also assisted with trademark evaluations and linguistic research to validate the names they developed. In addition, they generously assisted with some out of scope work including follow-up creative ideations and the creation of category descriptors to contextualize the selected brand name. We sincerely appreciated this additional, unbudgeted work.

I would point to the extensive list of fantastic names that cleared not just a trademark prescreen but a linguistic evaluation as well!

We absolutely enjoyed every minute we spent with Catchword team (Mark and Katy). They are very nice, very professional, and very knowledgeable. Perfect combination of what's needed to make a reliable professional partner for our company. 

Are there any areas for improvement or something Catchword could have done differently?

We could have benefited from more education on the importance of trademark screening early on. It was somehow intimidating at the end to receive trademark screening reports from our lawyers on the shortlisted list of names and to see how widely used almost all names could be around the world. Not sure if this is something that can be done better/differently by Catchword, but I can think of this as the only hard part of the effort for us.
