Kristen Hodges of Ahoy Graphics
Here's the story behind her shop name:
"Why a Design Shop went Nautical"
I chose the name Ahoy! Graphics for its double meaning. On one hand, the good ol’ sailor speak reflects my new lifestyle as a Navy wife. On the other hand, “Ahoy!” is my constant reminder that graphic design is essentially a visual conversation between two people. In my line of work, it's between a business and its customers—a great way to build connection with your buyers! The very definition of "ahoy" is to hail a ship, a boat or a person, or to attract attention.
I also keep it as my overall goal, because "Ahoy!" is more than a greeting, it's meant to get your sole attention—a key ingredient for good communication. Think about it, when you first meet a potential client, you don't say, "Hello!" without the intention of starting a conversation, right? Shouldn't your branding do the same? It's the welcome mat and greeting party to encourage potential customers to come take a look around.
