Independent Medicare brokers help millions of Americans navigate one of the most complex insurance systems in the country. Spark Advisors was built to give them the tools to operate and grow at scale. We evolved the brand as the company expanded.

Problem Spark’s existing brand was oriented around the beneficiary, not the broker, creating friction in go-to-market. A brand designed for the end consumer says ’tool.’ A brand designed for the broker says ’partner.’ That distinction matters when you're asking someone to restructure their business around your platform.

Solution One clear strategic call: center the broker, not the beneficiary. The refreshed identity, website, and messaging were built to speak broker-to-broker. The rebrand supported growth to 3,400+ broker partners and $43.6M in total funding.

BRAND STRATEGY  Independent Medicare brokers are the unsung heroes of healthcare. They tirelessly help people everyday find in-network providers, apply for loans and certifications and take care of surprise bills. Spark recognizes the dreams of these brokers to create something bigger and better by partnering with them to expand their network and grow their business through digital tools. Spark’s brand strategy put the brokers front and center elevating their stories and acting as a support system for them to reach the impossible.

IDENTITY  We evolved the Spark identity refreshing it’s typographic word mark to be clean, modern and unique and combined it with a redrawn Spark “north star” icon, The identity acts as a beacon for business owners, representing the lofty ambitions they have as business owners and Spark’s ability to help them achieve their goals.

APPLICATION  Building a brokerage business is complex and challenging. Spark puts brokers at the center giving them access to tools and services to grow their business. To visualize this we built a modular grid system built from the curves of the identity to create a system that could house photography, product UI, data, and testimonials to complete the picture of what running a brokerage business on Spark looks like.
