Upswing Fitness

Originally unnamed, Upswing Fitness came to D2 with freshly formed idea that needed a mark with personality and a lot of purpose. Upswing provides a platform that connects fitness professionals with the tools they need to grow their business virtually — free of physical and logistical boundaries. In a competitive fitness industry, Upswing needed to make a lasting first impression to fitness trainers and members. Their identity embodies a commitment to growth and rising to meet individual goals. The mark also forms a pledge hand – both Upswing’s pledge and promise to support the fitness professional and a pledge to ourselves to commit to crushing our goals. Mainly shown in black and white, the bright pops of color match the Upswing inspiring, confident, and inclusive personality.

As a startup, having solid branding legitimizes my business, creates a lasting first impression and allows my logo to tell the Upswing story. The team at D2 is incredible. They created a brand strategy, brought purpose to the message, and crafted a powerful brand story. — Chris Putsch, Founder of Upswing
