Origin Story
In 2008, Tom was working on a denim brand and an infrastructure management business in Edmonton, Canada. Juggling two very different types of businesses he quickly realized the value of having a strong brand. Beyond the aesthetics, once a company knows who they are and why they exist, then they can start to prioritize their actions to achieve their goals.
JaxonLabs started from a meeting with a local construction company whose owner purchased some jeans from Tom’s website and wanted help developing their brand. What started simply as one entrepreneur helping another quickly grew into more and more business owners looking to Tom for guidance as they navigated building a brand in the digital eco-system.
Today, we operate within Canada and the United States. Having worked with 70+ businesses and entrepreneurs over the past 7 years – from startups to businesses with 100+ million in annual revenue. Our projects have covered a wide scope of strategy and development – one thing is always consistent – the desire to help people/organizations unlock the best versions of themselves and bring value to their customers.
