Mike Kotler is the founder and creative director of 1Brand Design. With more than 20 years of experience in web design and development, brand strategy, SEO, copywriting, and creative direction, he works directly with clients to create thoughtful, polished work that helps their businesses grow.
One of Mike’s biggest strengths is his ability to look at a project from multiple angles. Because his background spans both creative and strategic work, clients do not have to piece things together between separate people handling design, messaging, SEO, and overall direction. He is able to work hand-in-hand with clients throughout the process, helping connect the brand, the website, the content, and the bigger-picture goals in a way that feels more clear, efficient, and collaborative.
Over the years, Mike has worked with a wide range of clients and industries, helping businesses sharpen their branding, improve their websites, strengthen their messaging, and present themselves more professionally. His experience as a creative director also brings a strong sense of cohesion to the work, making sure the final result feels aligned, intentional, and built to support the business as a whole.
Mike takes a hands-on approach to every project and values direct communication, attention to detail, and work that feels both strategic and well crafted. Whether the need is a new website, stronger branding, clearer messaging, or ongoing creative support, his goal is always the same: to create work that looks sharp, makes sense, and helps move the business forward.
