Our Story

In the beginning..

Apex Branding & Design started in January of 2014 under the name Cedar Rapids Web Design.

Founder James was brand new to business ownership and had no idea what he was doing (some would argue he still has no idea what he’s doing).

James spent the next several years fumbling his way through marketing, sales and client management, gaining valuable experience along the way.

Eventually James realized he needed to make some changes. First, a rebrand was in order. Cedar Rapids Web Design worked well for local SEO purposes, but implied that he only did website design, and he only did it in his home town of Cedar Rapids.

Today

Fast forward to today (Jan 2022 as I write this) and the business has changed quite a bit. Apex Branding & Design is a full service branding and design agency, made up of a team of professionals who have each mastered their particular craft.

Apex is much more than a web design company, and we’ve expanded beyond our hometown. 

Tomorrow

As we look towards the future, we’re excited to see what new and exciting branding adventures await.
