GREAT FOR
- Making your business communications more cohesive
- Kick-starting a new business venture
- Updating current branding that feels tired
It may not always appear obvious as to why branding a company is important. However it can offer you more than you might expect. Giving a company a clear brand means it is instantly recognisable to your customers. This in turn creates a level of trust from your clients, when they see your branded products they re-call the positive experiences they had when working with you. It also creates a level of professionalism, from the first e-mail with its branded signature to the invoice they receive at the end of the interaction.
TOP TIPS
Consider what you want your company to be known for. How do you want your customers to feel when they interact with you? Do you want to create a very professional experience or a bright, colourful, youthful experience? Look at other companies and compile a folder of branding you reacted well to. This will help set the tone of what you want to achieve.
