What the exploration established

The foundation does not change between concepts.

Garrett’s site is the broad discovery and authority hub. Multiplier remains the focused conversion experience for qualified business owners.

01

Invite the entire media audience

New viewers, readers, W-2 employees, entrepreneurs, and longtime fans should all feel welcome. Program qualification happens later.

02

Build a recognizable Garrett

The orange jacket, long hair, lived experience, humor, scars, and contrarian belief-flips make him unlike the standard finance personality.

03

Share DNA with Multiplier

Warm light surfaces, charcoal, orange, strong typography, proof, and clear conversion hierarchy create the family resemblance.

04

Keep Garrett human

Editorial breathing room, stage and cabin photography, books, YouTube, story, and a clear route to Multiplier keep the personal brand broader than a sales site.

05

Use the name—not a forced symbol

The full Garrett Gunderson name is the clearest brand asset. Each concept explores typography rather than relying on an ambiguous GG monogram.

The edge is back.
The space stays.

The original palette and bold all-caps typography return, with V2’s cleaner layouts and better-composed photography. Black and orange sections stay part of the identity; lighter stretches give them more impact. V2 and the Original are preserved below.

GARRETT.GUNDERSON

Not less personality. Just a little less black.

The exact Prosperity Refined cream, orange, charcoal, and green return. Heavy all-caps headlines meet orange serif accents. A black video chapter and dark Multiplier feature bring the contrast back, while the orange newsletter section finishes with energy. V2’s improved photography, open layouts, and mobile reading order remain.

V2 is unchanged. Compare its softer palette and light sections with V3’s original colors, bolder typography, and restored dark and orange sections.

The identity Garrett chose, with greater care in every section.

Warm paper, sand, and soft sage carry the page. Orange remains the signature. Larger, better-composed photography brings Garrett forward; calmer typography gives the copy room to breathe. Open editorial layouts bring variety to the video, framework, testimonials, and speaking sections.

Finalists preserved for comparison

These are the two directions Dean and Ryan ranked highest. They remain untouched so the team can compare the original Editorial Prosperity, the more energetic Editorial Edge, and all three versions of Prosperity Refined above.

Editorial Prosperity

GARRETT.GUNDERSON

Sophisticated, credible, optimistic—and still unmistakably Garrett.

Warm editorial surfaces meet charcoal proof and video sections. This is the clearest bridge between Garrett’s personal authority and the polish of Multiplier Family Office.

Strength: Broad appeal and trust. Watch-out: Some headline styling can feel more traditional than Garrett’s personality.

Editorial Edge

GARRETT.GUNDERSON

Editorial authority with enough edge to own a modern financial media lane.

Warm light surfaces and refined spacing preserve trust, while bolder headlines, sharper lines, high-contrast media sections, and more visible contrarian statements add the energy of Garrett Unfiltered.

Keep: Its contrasting headline style. Do not carry forward: the dark hero, dense wrapping, or oversized horizontal list.

Archive · Not moving forward

Useful explorations, not the chosen path.

Garrett Unfiltered and The Rich Life remain available below as visual references. Dean and Ryan like these the least.

Garrett Unfiltered

GARRETT GUNDERSON

A sharper platform for the financial voice willing to challenge the industry.

Dark broadcast energy, bold condensed type, orange interventions, video-first storytelling, and oversized contrarian statements move Garrett closer to an unmistakable media personality.

Why it stopped: The dark hero and overall intensity felt too bold for the audience and too close to Multiplier in some areas while incongruent in others.

The Rich Life

GarrettGunderson

Wealth, quality of life, family, and legacy—made warm, personal, and aspirational.

Sunlit neutrals, forest ink, rust orange, spacious typography, and story-led imagery express the deeper outcome behind Garrett’s financial philosophy: a life you do not want to retire from.

Why it stopped: Garrett liked the image and attitude, but the serif and green treatment moved too far toward traditional finance and may not connect as strongly with the core audience.
