Behind the Brand: Local Founders of South Florida

Welcome to Behind the Brand, a visual blog spotlighting the incredible founders and creators shaping South Florida’s culture.

As a creative working with local entrepreneurs and brands, I get a behind-the-scenes look at the people turning their ideas into reality. This space celebrates them — the founders who hustle, create, and inspire.

Each post shares a glimpse into their world — what drives them, how they built their brands, and what it means to grow something real in the 305 and beyond.

This Isn’t Just Branding. It’s Alignment.

Hi, I'm Chade'

I’m Chadé Lopez, the founder of LaunchIt Agency and your creative partner in building brands that actually mean something—and make money doing it.

This is where we begin.

Over the years, I’ve helped entrepreneurs, founders, and visionaries go from stuck and scattered to booked and confident. Whether you’re launching something new, evolving your business, or finally investing in the brand you deserve, I’m here to help you get clear, aligned, and ready to show up like the CEO you are.

LaunchIt is the engine—but this is the driver’s seat. My one-on-one consulting offers you personal access to my brain, my strategy, and my signature approach to brand clarity, creative direction, and premium positioning.

Because when your brand looks good and feels right—everything else starts to click.
