So glad you made it!

You know what everyone says about Canadians. They’re the nicest people on earth, they say the word “about” funny, and they provide the best print production and graphic design services. Let Maple + Birch prove it to you.

How Can We Help?

Graphic Design

You need eye-catching design for your brand. Maple + Birch can create it for you or take your existing branding and modify it for new campaigns such as magazine ads, packaging, point of sale, and business materials.. Maple + Birch specializes in file building so that your brand maintains consistency and recognizability in online media such as Instagram ads and in large-format projects such as vehicle wraps and billboards.

Print Production

Good design is just part of what makes a project successful—print production is what brings your project to life. It’s the little things that make a print job perfect. Whether it’s working with complex finishing techniques such as spot varnishes, embosses, and foil stamping, or simply ensuring your files are built exactly to specification, Maple + Birch provides the expert level production skills to get the job done right.

Project Management

Media campaigns require focus, organizational skills, and the ability to keep track of multiple moving parts. Hiring freelancers such as writers and photographers, communicating inside and outside of your business, ensuring payment benchmarks are being met, and sourcing vendors for your campaign can stretch your staff thin and get in the way of you running your business efficiently. Maple + Birch’s project management ensures no tasks are forgotten, all purchasing and hiring is done in a timely manner, and bridges communication between your in-house staff and contractors so that your campaign goes off without a hitch.

Strategy Consultation

The goal of your campaign defines what advertising products you need as well as how your marketing materials should be distributed. Maple + Birch’s strategy consultation employs over twenty years of advertising expertise to determine the physical print materials and online tactics you need to stay inside of your budget and spread your message the farthest.

Hear From Our Clients

As a candidate running for local office, I needed fabulous literature. Something to share who I am with voters in a form that was easy to transport and that would make door-knocking fun. I emailed Dusty my platform, some quotes, and some pictures. She took what I gave her and created a masterpiece! Knocking 20,000 doors doesn’t seem so daunting with her lit in hand!

Dusty is not a one-sided designer, but rather, multi-faceted. This versatility stems from Dusty’s varied experience and has served her and us, as her clients, quite well. From the start, Dusty was able to glean what our end goals were and brought our vision and our messaging to fruition.
