FAQ
What we do
What does KissTheFrog do?
KissTheFrog is a branding, web design, and brand refresh studio for micro and small businesses. We build brand identities, design and develop websites, and rework brands that have outgrown their current look – strategy, design, and development all handled by one senior team.
What’s the difference between Branding, Digital, and Brand Refresh?
Branding builds a visual identity from the ground up – logo, typography, color system, and brand guidelines. Digital covers website design and development – UX, visual design, and build. Brand Refresh combines both: we audit what already exists, keep what works, and rebuild the rest so your look finally matches your business.
Do you only work with businesses that already have a brand, or can you build one from scratch?
Both. If you’re launching and need an identity built from zero, that’s Branding. If you already have a business – and a brand that hasn’t kept up with it – that’s Brand Refresh.
Who is KissTheFrog for?
We work with micro and small-sized businesses that have already proven themselves – a loyal customer base, a working product, real revenue – but whose branding or website doesn’t reflect it. If the business is solid and the brand isn’t, that’s exactly who we built this for.
Process & timeline
What does your process look like?
Every project runs in three stages: Kiss, Transform, Launch. Kiss is discovery – we audit your business, customers, and competitors. Transform is where we design and build. Launch is handover – you get every file, documented and ready to use.
How long does a project take?
Most projects run 4 – 6 weeks from kickoff to launch. Timeline depends on scope: a Brand Refresh with a full website sits at the longer end, while a logo and identity on its own can move faster.
What if I don’t like the direction, logo, or design?
You approve each stage before we move to the next, so nothing lands as a surprise at the final reveal. Feedback rounds are built into the process, not bolted on afterward.
Do you offer support after launch?
Yes. We stay involved after launch and remain a point of contact if questions come up – we work as a partner, not a vendor who disappears after delivery.
Pricing
How much does branding or a website cost?
It depends on scope, so we don’t quote a number until we understand the business. After a free 30-minute call, we give a single fixed price for the full project – not a range, not an estimate.
Do you charge by the hour or a fixed price?
Fixed price, agreed before work starts. No hourly billing and no surprise invoices partway through the project.
What happens during the free 30-minute brand audit?
We look at where your brand and website stand today, talk through where you want the business to go, and give you an honest read on whether we’re the right fit – no pitch, no pressure, no obligation to continue.
Why KissTheFrog
How is KissTheFrog different from other branding and design agencies?
One senior team owns the project end to end – no account managers, no junior handoffs, no layers between you and the people doing the work. Strategy, branding, and website all come from the same team, so nothing gets lost in translation between departments.
Why do I need a branding agency if I can just use AI tools?
AI is genuinely useful for execution, and we use it ourselves to speed up production. But strategy, taste, and consistency across an entire brand – knowing what to keep, what to cut, and why – still take human judgment built over years, not prompts.
Is KissTheFrog the same company as Lepshey Studio?
Yes. KissTheFrog is the next chapter of Lepshey Studio – same team, same standards, sharper focus, built on 19+ years of experience and 400+ completed projects.
Do you work with clients outside Latvia?
Yes. KissTheFrog is based in Latvia and works with clients across Europe and beyond – all communication and delivery happen remotely, so location isn’t a barrier.
Who will actually work on my project?
A small, focused team handles the project directly, from kickoff to launch. You’re talking to the people designing and building – not a rotating cast of account managers.
What do I get to keep at the end of the project?
Everything. Source files, brand guidelines, website code, and documentation are all handed over at launch, fully yours to use, edit, or hand to another team later.
