CASE STUDY

A Shift in Services, A Strategic Rebrand

Sapon Immigration

INTRODUCTION

Expanded Expertise

Sapon Immigration, a U.S. legal immigration and recruiting firm in Louisville, Kentucky, helps foreign nationals secure visas. Their experienced team tackles immigration law, talent acquisition, job placement, and compliance. When Sapon decided to shift its focus from family law to the specialized world of employment immigration and recruitment, it called on Mix Creative Group.

This client needed a complete brand transformation to really show off their expanded expertise and strategically position themselves as leaders in the fields of immigration law and foreign talent recruitment.


THE PROBLEM

Communicating at a Critical Juncture

Sapon Immigration was making a big internal move, pivoting its main focus from family law to employment immigration and recruitment. This meant their existing brand just wasn't cutting it anymore; it didn't accurately reflect their specialized expertise or their new service offerings. To nail this pivot and become leaders in a competitive market, they needed much more than just a visual refresh. They needed a comprehensive rebrand that would clearly communicate their new direction, resonate with their target audience of foreign nationals and employers, and genuinely set them apart in employment-based immigration.


OUR STRATEGY

Guiding a Complete Brand Transformation

Our strategy for Sapon Immigration was pretty clear: guide them through a complete brand transformation so their external perception perfectly matched their new strategic focus. Here’s what we aimed to do:

  1. Redefine and Clarify Brand Identity

  3. Enhance Online Visibility + Communication

    We planned to leverage smart digital marketing tactics to expand their reach and effectively communicate their expanded services to a very specific new audience.

  4. Position Sapon as Industry Leaders

    Crafting a strong brand narrative and presence that built trust and authority in their specialized field was paramount.

EXECUTION

Bringing the New Brand to Life

Brand Transformation

We kicked things off by rethinking the firm’s entire identity, renaming it from “Sapon Law” to “Sapon Immigration” to clearly reflect its new direction. Then, we designed a modern, professional logo that perfectly captured this evolution and expanded focus. Next, we built a comprehensive brand guidelines document. This essential guide ensures every digital and print element aligns seamlessly with the firm’s new approach, guaranteeing consistency across all client touchpoints.

Visual Content Creation

We understand the importance of authentic visuals, so we coordinated a dedicated photo and video shoot. This gave Sapon Immigration high-quality, professional imagery and video content that beautifully enhanced the brand's new look and feel, providing awesome assets for both the website and social media.

Digital + Print Collateral Development

To support the rebrand rollout, we designed a beautiful new SEO-optimized website. It not only highlighted their expanded services but also offered a seamless, intuitive user experience. We also created essential digital and print collateral, including social media design templates, a sharp PowerPoint presentation template, and company stationery like business cards, letterhead, and email signatures.

Digital Visibility + Engagement

Understanding that digital visibility is non-negotiable, we developed a strategic SEO and content marketing campaign to really emphasize their new focus on employment immigration and recruitment. By leveraging keyword-driven content, we helped Sapon Immigration significantly increase its online reach and effectively communicate its expanded services to their target clients.

THE RESULT

A Client Empowered for Success

Our collaboration with Sapon Immigration wrapped up with a cohesive, modern brand refresh that perfectly reflects their current identity and strategically positions them for continuous growth and success in the specialized field of employment immigration. This rebrand was more than just a visual makeover—it was a strategic pivot that truly empowered Sapon Immigration to clearly communicate their expertise, expand their reach, and absolutely thrive in a competitive market.
