About Kyle Ernst

Starting and running a successful technology company is hard.Build, learn, iterate, monetize, scale, compete – the list goes on and on.With all of those balls in the air every day, it’s easy to lose sight of a critical one: your brand.Your brand isn’t just a logo or a tagline, it’s the foundation that keeps you strategically aligned both within your team and with your customers. It’s the extent to which people believe that there is no substitute for you. It’s a promise.We live in a noisy world with endless choice, so why should someone choose you?I started a strategic creative agency dedicated to answering that question. Zone was born from a passion to amplify the voices of tech companies that are shaping the future; to partner with innovators who are solving problems that can’t wait. While we specialize in brand strategy, positioning, brand identity, and digital experience creation, the driving force behind everything we do is making sure that the most important messages are heard by the people that need to hear them most.Partner & Creative Director | Over 13 years of experience in strategy, design, art direction, and creative direction.
