Messaging and positioning
DG+ is a marketing, communications, and creative agency for innovative brands across clean energy and climate tech.
Value-focused storytelling that scales across teams, audiences, and channels.
Clean energy and climate tech companies need language that makes their value clear in every conversation. DG+ helps you shape messaging that lands with investors, customers, policymakers, and communities — and turns complex technology, data, and impact into a narrative people can actually repeat.
We start by listening (and reading) — across teams, stakeholders, and existing materials. When multiple people represent a brand, the story naturally gets told a few different ways. We synthesize what we learn through our research and discovery process — including what truly sets you apart — into a single source of truth: a message hierarchy that reflects your value from your core brand narrative down to product-level proof points. From there, every team can pull from the same foundation, creating a consistent experience across marketing, sales, and communications.
Whether you’re launching a new brand, entering a new market, or refreshing your existing materials, DG+ ensures your story is strategic, cohesive, and ready to scale.
Core capabilities include:
- Messaging frameworks and hierarchy development
- Value proposition definition and refinement
- Audience segmentation and tailored key messages
- Tone of voice and storytelling guidance
- Competitive and category positioning
- Internal alignment workshops

Why invest in messaging and positioning?
Simplify complexity without flattening your story.
Clean energy and climate solutions are technical and nuanced. Strong messaging makes your value clear and believable, without losing what makes you you.
Ground your story in evidence (not assumptions).
Great positioning starts with listening and research. We draw from stakeholder input, policy and market context, and competitive framing, to build messages that reflect the realities your audiences care about.
Build credibility with investors and partners.
When your messaging shows you understand the landscape — and the tradeoffs — decision-makers trust you faster.
Identify new opportunities early.
Strategic positioning clarifies where you fit today and where you can lead next, helping you claim a sharper role in the market.

“Working with DG+ has been seamless, in design, transparency, and timing. We are very pleased with their work as it elevated our branding to the next level.”
"Our re-brand was successful and David was instrumental in getting us moving forward. David is very patient and he worked well with our company being very challenging to work with at times."
"We chose DG+ because they had the right design experience as well as an understanding of the EV space."
"I cannot recommend David enough, his technical knowledge and professional approach made him a joy to work with. He had creative ideas and was constantly guiding and advising us throughout the engagement. We will certainly work with him again."
DG+ refined our brand and catalyzed so much growth for us within our industry. With their renewable energy and technology fluency, they were easily able to understand our novel platform and articulate its value to our customers. Working with DG+ has allowed us to accelerate our online brand presence with a small internal team. That would not have been possible without them.
