Why do you need Branding?
ABOUT BRANDING
Branding is how your business sets itself apart from your competitors and how it connects with your audience to tell your story. When businesses are crafting their mission, vision, values, brand personality, aesthetic and voice, it is essential to never lose sight of the customers. Crafting unique and meaningful branding concepts which achieve the KPI’s envisioned, resonate with the target audience and have the longevity to withstand ever changing future developments is exciting and a process on its own.
Branding directly influences your target audiences’ perception of a product, service, experience, or organisation and reinforces the emotional connection they feel throughout these interactions. Your branding strategy must therefore be integrated and consistent across all of your platforms to assure a so called ‘multi-dimensional brand experience’
The steps we take
OUR PROCESS
STEP 01
Diving into the market
After our initial meetings, our team has received the complete project brief to get started. We research the market environment and developments, analysing the target audience, conduct competitor research, identify trends and industry practice locally and in foreign markets to get a holistic picture of it all. Your businesses’ unique value proposition is crucial to us and triggers the initial brainstorm phase in the expert circle to get going on names, appearance and tone of voice.
STEP 02
Getting to the nitty gritty
After isolating winning ideas, a sincere connection needs to be drawn to the key qualities of your business and your mission statement. We formulate the ‘brand voice’ and look at design elements, which will reinforce this at best, assuring your branding concept communicates your brand values and story to your stakeholders successfully.
STEP 03
We get creative
Once we have consolidated our research and brainstorming process, our team likes to discuss ideas and directions to assure we all move into the right direction. Then, we get started with the fun part of the process, letting creativity and ingenuity come to play. Creating brand designs, we typically craft a number of unique and original options for our clients to review at initial stage and develop further as per preference.
STEP 04
Compiling your brand guideline
After finalizing the core ingredients for your brand we create your branding guideline book, ensuring that the vision we crafted together is translated into the real world with precision and consistency across all the media you choose to be present on. Our team compiles a comprehensive brand guideline book to help you stay on track and assure effective brand positioning from day one.
