BRANDING.

Presenting a consistent visual style to everything that represents your business

Do I need branding?

Whatever stage you’re at, even a brand-spanking new business, you need to consider branding. Starting with a great logo, it’s the process of keeping everything that represents your business consistent – corporate colours, fonts, layout and design – ultimately, this ensures you’re putting across a professional image and building trust.

Where to start

After the logo is in place it’s important to implement a set of guidelines outlining correct use the logo. These guidelines can and should be developed to include corporate colours, fonts and layout styles.

Elements of branding

Let’s break it down 

  • Brand strategy (an in-depth plan outlining your purpose, and how you aspire for your organisation to be perceived. The actual “brand” is the response from the marketplace, how your organisation is perceived in the mind of anyone who has any level of awareness of your organisation)
  • Logo (and any variants of the logo)
  • Typography (typefaces/fonts and their guidelines)
  • Colours (colour palette, combinations, usage)
  • Graphic Design (design themes, templates, guidelines)
  • Illustration styles
  • Photography styles

These are the aspects of visual branding. The full “persona” of a brand encapsulates all and every single point of contact with a brand – products, messaging (tv, radio, print), quality, word-of-mouth referrals. An endless list.

The point being, try to control all aspects of your visual branding, with consistency.
