little b – small is good

About the Company

little b is a full-service design and communications firm in Baltimore, Maryland. We are well equipped to serve both local companies and organizations located around the United States (and even abroad!).

Incorporated in March 2002, we did business under the name Karin Tracy Design for many years. Our founder, Karin Tracy, began freelancing as she transitioned from the world of employee to that of employer. Many happy clients later, little b finally has its own identity.

While we started small by default, we have found numerous advantages to this more fluid style of company. Namely, we keep our overhead low by maintaining a small office, a small staff and few expenses. Profitable from day one, we are thrilled to be able to pass on savings and value to our clients with competitive project prices.

We are able to quickly form the right team for each project—whether it is a one-time print advertisement or a full-scale rebranding effort or a dynamic, interactive Web site. We are the team that a larger design agency would compose internally, but we omit the layer of account executive. This means that when you call, you will be speaking to the designer of your logo, to the developer of your Flash application, and to the programmer who wrote your content management system.

little b has chosen to partner with two small firms that help us to offer our clients the full spectrum of Web development—Modern Signal (based in Washington, DC) and Strategux (with offices in Baltimore, Maryland, and Knoxville, Tennessee).
