Hear from Associate Creative Director Berenice Mendez about her experience leading brand design at HelloSign as it grew from a small 25-person company, to being acquired by Dropbox.
Following on from our look inside marketing design at Dropbox, in this episode we zoom in on HelloSign and learn how it functions as part of Brand Studio after being acquired, as well as the things Berenice has learned from the acquisition. Plus, we learn about how the HelloSign team uses our season sponsor Webflow for their marketing site, and why the switch to Webflow is one of the projects Berenice is most proud of.
