Hager Excavating:
A Total Brand Transformation

A family-owned excavator that’s moved Chicagoland’s ground since 1946 — re-introduced to the community with a new logo, a premium ad, a custom website, and rebuilt brand photography. Here’s the before & after.

When Hager Excavating became a Bulldog Audience Builder, they had decades of credibility but a brand that didn’t show it — a clip-art ad, a dated website, and snapshots from the yard. We rebuilt the whole presentation from the ground up. Same family, same iron — a brand that finally matches the work.

01 — Identity

The Logo

We refined their existing badge into a crisp, vector-perfect mark — same heritage, deeper color and razor-sharp at any size, ready for the web, a truck door, or a hard hat.

The Story of the Season Ad

The standard ad does the job. The Audience Builder ad sells — a cinematic hero, a real headline, a clean offer, and a QR code that bridges print to web.

The Website

From a sparse four-photo page to a complete, modern landing page — hero, services, story, service area and an estimate form. A site that out-classes most businesses’ own websites.
