trevor brown design was founded in September 2000 soon after principal, Trevor Brown was laid off from a well-paid dot com job. The first few years of tbd were spent building up a personal portfolio, clientele and a network of other displaced ad professionals.

trevor brown design creates brands and is looking for like minded clientele who understand the importance of branding and want to build businesses that will last, flourish and grow.

In 2004 tbd is shifting from project based work to retainer based clients. trevor brown design will also be reevaluating current clients to see if they stand up to the current mission and goals of tbd which are: branding, cultivating and growing clients' businesses.

tbd sees brand as a valuable marketing tool. To end-users, investors and partners 'brand' gives a company recognizable personality--with a high-level of professionalism-- distinguishing a company from its competitors.

Principal Trevor Brown's experience in theatre (working national and international tours) and subsequent experience in web development and traditional advertising (working with teams at remote locations such as Viet Nam, Washington DC, Switzerland, Germany and San Francisco) makes working with all clients--where ever they are--a streamlined process.

tbd has created a methodology and development process that works and is proven by the long term relationship held with most clients. Clients trust trevor brown design's advice and common sense approach to marketing and brand problems. Don't let the smooth taste fool you: principal Trevor Brown may look like a teddy bear but is a corporate shark. He uses wit, personality, intelligence and pure will power to achieve success in a homogenous corporate world that is not used to having a dark skinned, intelligent and articulate man of African descent in a position of authority.
