Who we are
We love helping businesses look their best and showcase their products and services.
Having great partners helps too.
Although BIGGIE Brands is relatively young, our founder Kat Kotrla has many years of experience in marketing.
In 2002, after studying at the Art Institute of Dallas, Kat returned to Austin and founded his first design firm, Project Neko which specialized in a funky stylistic design voice and worked for clients in the iconic Austin music scene like Stubb’s BBQ and C3 Presents (Austin City Limits Festival / Lollapalooza).
Not long after that, he co-founded a successful SaaS (software as a service) company, which is still in business today, 17 years later.
At BIGGIE Brands we are both designers and marketers, which makes us a unique partner. As creatives, we understand the importance of making things functional, effective, and beautiful.

Automated Marketing for Cartridge World
"We know the marketing landscape has changed in terms of digital marketing, but we had no idea how or where to get started. BIGGIE Brands has helped us stay in touch with relevant marketing messages to our existing customers, while simultaneously reaching out to cold leads in our targeted area. All of this marketing is automated which is great, because unfortunately I don’t have a lot of time to devote to continuous follow up. Once I approve the campaign, I sit back and wait for the responses."

Our business cards and company shirts all display our logo that they created ! The font, colors, design...all his and all fit my company to "the T". I honestly give BIGGIE Brands credit for our progression!"
