This network approach keeps our budgets efficient, while providing the international-quality work our clients expect.
Joshua Berman has over 17 years of experience in design, branding and marketing. After working as everything from a project manager at a midsize digital agency, to art director at a boutique brand studio, to concepting brands at McCann Erickson, he decided to start his own agency.
Today, Josh leads a talented network of designers, writers, marketing professionals and production artists working with forward-thinking client partners. He is a hands-on team leader and network developer with great instincts about brand development, and enjoys working directly with clients to help identify and craft solutions to their business challenges.

BBG guided us expertly through the entire process (at times it felt like they knew more about what we needed than we did, which I am grateful for!), and I appreciated the helpful structure they provided to help our group articulate our vision along the way - that felt above and beyond what I would ordinarily expect from a creative process.

I plan to use their services going forward and encourage my colleagues to do the same. They are a true gem of the Tulsa marketing scene.

We are so happy with his work and contributions.

“We’ve worked with Josh Berman of Berman Brand Group for a number of years, on a wide range of projects and products. What’s unique about Josh is his ability to think strategically - and to funnel that strategy into creative, clean deliverables.
It’s rare for an agency to seamlessly connect strategy, story, and product. Punch does this effortlessly. It’s why we keep coming back to Josh and his team for projects big and small. Bonus: he’s fun to work with and super nice! ”
The Nakta Designs team absolutely loved working with BBG. Their insightful initial questions helped guide us to the right concepts to share, the process was very open and communicative, and their ability to iterate was so impressive. We walked away from our engagement with a beautiful logo that fits our brand perfectly, and we still get compliments about it years later! ”
- Mailande Moran, Owner & Founder
My search for someone who could really comprehend our creative requirement wouldn’t have come to an end without the help of Joshua Berman. From the very first introductory interaction to final stage, the whole methodology was very friendly and transparent which proved Joshua to be a tremendous help in order to achieve a remarkable imagery for our brand. Collaborating with him was so convenient and hassle free because of his extreme professional approach and being accommodating at the same time.
- Josh Goraya, Founder and Director of NEOMORAL
Josh made the process of choosing a logo for my business fun and easy. I was a little nervous about the process but through his good communication, it was enjoyable. He responded quickly to emails and set up phone calls and zoom calls to work through things that we needed to look at together. He developed an amazing website for my business that looks great and is easy-to-navigate for any clients or potential customers. It is also easy for me to update myself which I was also nervous about since I'm not tech savvy.
Along the way, Josh was patient and helpful during every phone call. Josh also helped me design business cards that look awesome and he created files that enable me to order other promotional materials in the future. I was very pleased with the services, and would recommend BBG to any business owners!

- John Kelly, Partner
BBG helped us design our brand for a new product launch. The brand and company feel like my baby, and I am very protective over it; but working with Joshua Berman put me at ease. I knew we were in good hands because he took the time to understand every little detail about our product.
He asked questions that I hadn’t even thought of before! And he made me understand my brand so much more. That’s the kind of partner I was looking for: someone who cared about getting it right, and would think through every little detail like the product was his own. He brought incredible strategy, thinking, and vision to our launch, and it’s not easy to find a designer who will do that! I highly recommend his services.
- Alex Klein, Co-Founder
It’s easy for me to pen a few words of praise to BBG for their work on King’s Mobile... because our patrons and passers-by tell us - very frequently - how amazing we look. What began as a brand ID and logo re-design quickly morphed into a retail storefront design challenge and merchandising project that has taken off like gangbusters.
BBG was exactly the right fit for us, not just because Josh is an extremely talented creative. His consultative planning, ability to help us prioritize key needs, and marshaling urgent agency resources led us to impactful and highly effective solutions (typically under breakneck deadlines). I’m also grateful for Josh’s calm, thoughtful style and outstanding sense of humor, which collectively made for an invaluable partnership.
Josh is a killer creative with a keen business mind to boot, and I hope that he and I collaborate well into the future.
- T.J. McDermott, King's Sandwich Shop
We engaged Joshua Berman and the Punch Design team for our product re-launch. They completed thorough market research and re-branded our product to better appeal to both investors, at the capital raising stage, and to our consumers, who love the new packaging design and artwork that they created.
Terrific work they’ve done for us - you can just hear our cans on the shelves singing over the mediocre competition!
- Bradley Tuyn, President
Working with BBG was fantastic. I highly recommend them as a creative partner and look forward to our next engagement together.
