Our solution
APT retained Truss to rebrand CheckRun and kickstart a new phase of the platform’s growth. After extensive competitive and customer research, we identified the opportunity to develop a brand story that was differentiated by being proudly check positive. The marketing assets we developed gave CheckRun a clear message, new rally cry, and modern, tech-forward feel.

Upgrade your check payments with Checkrun, the cloud-based application for QuickBooks® Online users that provides businesses a secure, anytime-anywhere payment workflow for the most modern way to cut checks.

Competitive audit and personas
As part of our strategic discovery for Checkrun, we conducted a comprehensive competitive audit to assess how the product stacks up in a crowded payments landscape. We also developed six detailed buyer personas—defining their goals, challenges, values, and use cases—to better understand user needs. Together, these insights shaped the foundation of Checkrun’s messaging and brand strategy.
Whatever the life stage of your brand, our full-service strategic, creative, and marketing services can lift you higher.
