We're the Team Behind the Businesses You Recognize
Design Thumbprint is a marketing and branding agency based in Edmond, Oklahoma. We build brands, websites, and campaigns for businesses across Oklahoma and the country, from the plumber two neighborhoods over to national nonprofits like Feed the Children and Folds of Honor. Same standard either way. Here's who we are and why we do this.
Why We Started Design Thumbprint
Design Thumbprint started in 2015, founded by Nick Goodlin after more than a decade as an executive at UPS. That background left him with one conviction that still runs the whole agency: results are the only thing that counts. Not activity, not a nice report, just whether the number moved.
He kept noticing the same pattern in Oklahoma businesses, good companies losing to competitors who simply marketed better. The talent was never the problem. The visibility was. So he built an agency to close that gap, one that treats a small business's budget like it matters and measures its work by whether it actually worked. That's still the standard today, from local startups to national names like Dallas Golf, Anderson Alexander and Folds of Honor.
Our Values
Values are easy to list and hard to live. These four are the ones we actually make decisions by, especially the uncomfortable decisions, the ones where doing right by a client costs us something. If we ever stop meeting these, we'd want you to hold us to them.
What Working With Us Actually Looks Like
Plenty of agencies say the right things. Here's what's actually different about working with us.
You Own Everything
When we build your site, it's yours, 100%. The files, the domain, the logins, all of it. We don't keep a piece to lock you in, and you'll never have to buy back your own business to leave. Most of our clients stay anyway, which is the point.
You Get Us, Not a Handoff
We're small on purpose. The people you meet are the people doing the work, not a sales team that disappears once the contract's signed. That's a real limit on how much we take on, and it's a deliberate one.
We Tell You The Truth
If a platform's wrong for you, if a service won't move your numbers, if the timing's off, we say so. Even when the honest answer means less work for us. You can't build a long relationship on anything else.
Local Budgets Get Real Work
A small business gets the same thinking as a national account. We don't save the good ideas for the big logos, and we don't treat a modest budget like it deserves modest effort.
Meet Your Team Design Thumbprint is a small, senior team by design. When you hire us, these are the people you're actually working with, not names on a website you'll never hear from again.
What sets Design Thumbprint apart is our ability to blend creativity with strategic thinking. Our team of experienced professionals brings a wealth of knowledge in design, marketing, and technology, ensuring that every project we undertake is executed with precision and passion. We take the time to understand your business, your goals, and your challenges, so we can deliver solutions that truly make an impact.
