IDENTITY/LOGO DESIGN
Your identity/logo is the visual face of your business so it is vital that you get it right, and maintain future integrity and professionalism.
It should impress the audience, emotionally engage the right market and professionally communicate who you are. Successful logos are memorable, generate the right response and connect for the long term.
The makeup of a logo can take a few different forms. Quite often the simplest is created with predominantly text only, where the corporate name is designed in a suitable and engaging style from either a hand crafted or commercial font. Alternatively a symbol or icon is developed along with the corporate name to visually represent the brand. It may be flat, illustrated or image based, or a combination.
Your logo is the most visible and tangible part of your brand, but a logo is not a brand.
So what is a brand?…
Your brand is who you are, who you want to be and who people perceive you to be.
People often think a logo is a brand because it’s tangible and visible, however a logo is like a suit on a man or a dress on a woman, it’s only a part of that whole person. A brand is the whole character and personality of a product or business and contains elements that can’t readily be touched or seen, such as your culture and how you communicate with customers.
Your brand strategy is how, what, where, when and to whom you communicate.
Consistent, strategic branding leads to a strong brand equity, which means the added value brought to your company’s products or services that allows you to charge more for your brand than what identical, unbranded products command. And the added value intrinsic to brand equity frequently comes in the form of perceived quality or emotional attachment. (Nike comes to mind)
Defining your brand is like a journey of business self-discovery. It can be difficult, time-consuming and uncomfortable. It requires that you answer these questions:
- What is your company’s mission?
- What are the benefits and features of your products or services?
- What do your customers and prospects already think of your company?
- What qualities do you want them to associate with your company?
