WOLFPACK
ADVISING
The definitive guide to our visual identity, voice, and brand expression.
Brand Story
WolfPack Advising was founded in 2019 by Aaron Shishilla and Austin Hintze, who grew up in the home inspection industry and built the agency out of frustration with underperforming marketing firms.
Today, WolfPack serves 400+ companies across the U.S. with a "Pack Mentality" — SEO, ads, content, CRM, and reporting work together as one system, not in silos.
Empower businesses with measurable, driven, and calculated results.
Logo Guidelines
The WolfPack Advising logo is a combination mark featuring a geometric wolf icon — constructed from angular chevron forms that evoke strength, precision, and pack unity — paired with the "WOLFPACK ADVISING" wordmark. The icon uses a navy-to-cyan gradient that reflects our tech-forward identity.
