My passion for graphic design and photography started at a young age, around 12 or 13 years old. Both Chris and I were raised by strong, entrepreneurial, single mothers who taught us to carve out our own paths and find independence.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">&#8220;Unsure about college, I ended up participating in one of the first charter programs for high school in Northern Nevada at Truckee Meadows Community College, which had a strong design program. At the time, I worked two jobs, volunteered at a local TV station, and did high school and college credits. I spent a lot of time on campus before earning my degree and meeting Chris during my final semester of graphic design.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><strong>Chris:<\/strong> &#8220;I grew up in a small town called Truckee, California, about 45 miles outside of Reno, Nevada. I spent much time outdoors, snowboarding and swimming, which led to summer jobs as a snowboard instructor and lifeguard.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">&#8220;I took a graphics class in high school, sparking my passion for design. After moving to Reno and attending community college, I fell in love with graphic design. Post-graduation, I worked at a local casino and later at a national clothing brand, handling their e-commerce design, photography, and catalog design.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"text-xl font-bold text-text-200 mt-1 -mb-0.5\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_did_you_start_Design_on_Edge\"><\/span>How did you start Design on Edge?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-15861 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DOE-6.jpeg\" alt=\"Design on Edge office\" width=\"1440\" height=\"1485\" srcset=\"https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DOE-6.jpeg 1440w, https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DOE-6-291x300.jpeg 291w, https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DOE-6-993x1024.jpeg 993w, https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DOE-6-768x792.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><strong>Courtney:<\/strong> &#8220;Our paths came together when we both started working in the casino industry, which was a fast-paced and demanding environment. As the recession hit, marketing departments were disbanding or merging, and my casino closed. I had to freelance and find design work wherever I could. When the casino reopened under new ownership, I had the opportunity to consult and called Chris to join me. With only $40 in the bank and a business license from college, we started Design on Edge at the peak of the recession.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><strong>Chris:<\/strong> &#8220;The name actually came from a college project where I had to design a logo for a company. I chose Design on Edge, and after the class, I took it seriously. It ultimately became the name of our company.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">&#8220;Over the years, we&#8217;ve faced challenges, from unreliable cars to credit card debt and even a brief period of homelessness. Today, 17 years later, we&#8217;re married with a beautiful son and a thriving business. We&#8217;ve contributed to the economic development of our community, supported numerous nonprofits, and received over 100 recognitions for community service, marketing, mentoring, and national awards for graphic design and communications.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"text-xl font-bold text-text-200 mt-1 -mb-0.5\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_does_your_agency_specialize_in\"><\/span>What does your agency specialize in?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-15862 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Design-on-Edge-office.jpeg\" alt=\"Design on Edge office\" width=\"1440\" height=\"1172\" srcset=\"https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Design-on-Edge-office.jpeg 1440w, https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Design-on-Edge-office-300x244.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Design-on-Edge-office-1024x833.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Design-on-Edge-office-768x625.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">&#8220;Design on Edge is a boutique-style agency based in Reno, Nevada that specializes in creating brand identities through graphic design, illustration, web design, and strategic marketing.

Our firm works with diverse clients, including nonprofits, medical and wellness industries, arts and culture, and food and beverage. Our goal is to tell the story of your business through the creative arts, helping you build a strong brand identity.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">Courtney: &#8220;We always knew we wanted to focus on graphic design and collaborated well. Chris was passionate about digital design, technology trends, and understanding the psychology behind user experiences. Meanwhile, I wanted to do more than just production work and was focused on understanding what people want from a design.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"text-xl font-bold text-text-200 mt-1 -mb-0.5\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_challenges_did_you_face_along_the_way\"><\/span>What challenges did you face along the way?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-15863 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DOE-8.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1440\" height=\"1800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DOE-8.jpeg 1440w, https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DOE-8-240x300.jpeg 240w, https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DOE-8-819x1024.jpeg 819w, https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DOE-8-768x960.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DOE-8-1229x1536.jpeg 1229w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">&#8220;As business founders, we&#8217;ve faced our fair share of challenges and failures. One of the most significant issues we encountered in our early days as a small agency was the lack of an efficient workflow system. When we first started, it was just the two of us, and we struggled with project management and client communication. Our inability to catch errors, printing mistakes, and typos was costly and put our reputation on the line. For a small agency or freelancer, one mistake can have long-lasting consequences.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">&#8220;Of course, we haven&#8217;t completely figured everything out, but we&#8217;re doing our best to learn and grow from our mistakes. Owning up to our errors and finding solutions has been crucial in keeping clients and preventing staff losses. One key lesson we&#8217;ve learned is the importance of understanding our worth and avoiding the trap of endless proof due to miscommunication or inefficiencies.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"text-xl font-bold text-text-200 mt-1 -mb-0.5\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Company_overview_Design_on_Edge_today\"><\/span>Company overview: Design on Edge today<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">The firm has evolved into a boutique-style agency specializing in:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"[&amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc space-y-1.5 pl-7\">\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Brand identity creation<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Graphic design<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Illustration<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Web design<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Strategic marketing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">Their client portfolio spans:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"[&amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc space-y-1.5 pl-7\">\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Nonprofit organizations<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Medical and wellness industries<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Arts and culture sectors<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Food and beverage companies<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">Their impact extends beyond client work, having earned:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"[&amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc space-y-1.5 pl-7\">\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Over 100 recognitions for community service<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">National awards for graphic design<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Marketing excellence acknowledgments<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Mentoring commendations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"GoVisually_Design_on_Edge\"><\/span>GoVisually &amp; Design on Edge<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3 class=\"text-xl font-bold text-text-200 mt-1 -mb-0.5\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_did_GoVisually_help_transform_your_workflow\"><\/span>How did GoVisually help transform your workflow?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">&#8220;We found GoVisually when we were in desperate need of proofing software.

Overall, GoVisually has allowed us to grow our business and team more efficiently, thanks to its improved communication and streamlined processes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">The transformation wasn&#8217;t just about adopting new software\u2014it was about transforming how they worked with clients and managed projects.<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">\ud83d\udca1 <strong>Impact Metrics:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"[&amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc space-y-1.5 pl-7\">\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Streamlined approval processes<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Enhanced team collaboration<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Improved client satisfaction<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Reduced operational costs<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Faster project completion<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Design_on_Edge_building_a_legacy_Founder_advices_future_plans_goals\"><\/span>Design on Edge building a legacy: Founder advices, future plans, &amp; goals!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-15865 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DOE-4-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1572\" srcset=\"https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DOE-4-1.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DOE-4-1-300x230.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DOE-4-1-1024x786.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DOE-4-1-768x590.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/DOE-4-1-1536x1179.jpeg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"text-xl font-bold text-text-200 mt-1 -mb-0.5\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Whats_next_for_Design_on_Edge\"><\/span>What&#8217;s next for Design on Edge?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">&#8220;While the importance of community has always been at the heart of what we do, it hasn&#8217;t been more apparent than in the past few years.

Businesses and people change over time, but building a solid network early in your career is crucial. Collaborate with vendors, friends, family, and people in different industries. At Design on Edge, we believe collaboration over competition is essential for growth.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><strong>Chris:<\/strong> &#8220;I&#8217;d say it&#8217;s okay not to know everything or have all the answers. Keep moving forward, learn the software, learn the job, and don&#8217;t give up on your goals and dreams.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><strong>Courtney:<\/strong> &#8220;Adapting to change is also crucial. When we started, many tools and software like GoVisually weren&#8217;t available. Be prepared to adapt to new technologies and changing circumstances. Our business started in a recession and faced challenges during the pandemic. But we pivoted, kept our employees and clients going, and rebuilt our business. Be flexible, trust you can find a solution, and lean on your network in tough times. Be bold in the face of adversity and inclusive in your decisions \u2013 that&#8217;s the best advice we can give now.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">So the key takeaways are:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"text-lg font-bold text-text-200 mt-1 -mb-1.5\"><strong>Building Strong Foundations<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"[&amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc space-y-1.5 pl-7\">\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Remember initial dreams and goals<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Stay true to core values<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Build solid networks early<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Maintain authenticity<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Focus on sustainable growth<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"text-lg font-bold text-text-200 mt-1 -mb-1.5\"><strong>Professional Development<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"[&amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc space-y-1.5 pl-7\">\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Embrace continuous learning<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Stay adaptable with technology<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Keep moving forward<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Accept not knowing everything<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Maintain persistence toward goals<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"text-lg font-bold text-text-200 mt-1 -mb-1.5\"><strong>Business Relationships<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">&#8220;Collaboration over competition is essential for growth&#8221;<\/p>\n<ul class=\"[&amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc space-y-1.5 pl-7\">\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Network across industries<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Maintain vendor relationships<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Nurture client connections<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Build industry partnerships<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Value every professional contact<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"text-lg font-bold text-text-200 mt-1 -mb-1.5\"><strong>Adaptation Strategies<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"[&amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc space-y-1.5 pl-7\">\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Embrace technological changes<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Pivot during challenging times<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Stay flexible in approach<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Trust in problem-solving abilities<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Lean on professional networks<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 class=\"text-xl font-bold text-text-200 mt-1 -mb-0.5\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Looking_Forward\"><\/span>Looking Forward<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">Today, Design on Edge focuses on:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"[&amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc space-y-1.5 pl-7\">\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Creating a thriving workspace for creatives<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Expanding their national presence<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Developing innovative brand strategies<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Building stronger community connections<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Supporting the next generation of designers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Founders_recommendations_resources\"><\/span>Founder&#8217;s recommendations &amp;
