From Blueprints to Brochures
With a solid brand identity in place, we collaborated with Soulé to develop a custom 12-page brochure highlighting the company’s unique offerings. Appleton also designed an engaging promotional video brochure to provide an overview of Soulé’s innovative solutions. Both pieces were used in a promotional direct mail campaign, complete with custom-designed box packaging, to increase brand awareness.
Four generations of history and ownership of a steel mill, fabrication shops and field placing branches positions Soule Software with a unique understanding of the steel industry.

This user-centric approach ensures the website attracts users and effectively communicates Soulé’s capabilities and services in a simple and engaging way.
With a value of $270 billion, the rebar market is growing at an annual rate of 4.9%.

Our team of design experts crafted a fully branded UX/UI dashboard suite tailored for Soulé’s internal operations. These user-centric dashboards enhance the user experience and streamline project management processes. By focusing on intuitive navigation and clear visuals we ensured Soulé’s team can manage projects more efficiently and effectively.
Steel the Show
To showcase Soulé’s fresh rebranding, we designed a cohesive, one-of-a-kind design tradeshow booth for the World of Concrete conference. Our design incorporated intricate patterns seen in Soulé’s new branding materials, celebrating the unification of software and rebar project management. We also filmed and produced a series of company overview videos to introduce Soulé’s target audience to its offerings, which were showcased at the tradeshow.
