Project Brand Aid Returns to Help Knoxville Small Business Thrive
It’s back! We’re thrilled to announce we’re officially relaunching Project Brand Aid, a program designed to help the Knoxville community by giving back in a big way…
Bringin’ PBA Back to Support Local Business
For those new to Project Brand Aid, the original idea for this exclusive program was sparked in 2015 by the creative team at Asen. Today, we’re excited to be bringing it back by providing one lucky small business in Knox County with $25k in branding services!
These branding services range from a new logo design and branded style guides to custom photography and collateral pieces—basically all the essentials an evolving small business needs to thrive long-term.
Why Knoxville Small Business?
As a small business ourselves, we understand the challenges that come with trying to get ahead in a crowded market. Post-pandemic, it’s these businesses in our community that need our support more than ever…
By partnering with winning small businesses like Planet Xchange and Frussies Deli (now Frussies Food Truck), Project Brand Aid was able to help local business owners and their teams access the marketing support they needed at the time. This year, we’ve decided to reintroduce the transformative program to our community with a sole focus on building a strong brand—something that sets a business up for years of success when done right!
“We appreciate the opportunity to support small business in our area. Project Brand Aid is our way of giving back by coming together to create a powerhouse brand for a deserving, reputable business.” – Amanda M., Head Copywriter & Content Manager
