Bringing a logical process to the creative world does not create an oxymoron. It’s two worlds that meet in an essential manner for any brand that wants to create impact in a cluttered-up world. Giving structure to everything about your creativity is necessary. We know that it gets to you when someone uses your logo the wrong way. Or even worse, someone prints your logo in a different colour. The deadline’s gone, and it’s out there in the world, almost taunting you. We feel your pain. But what instructions were there in the brief? What materials could be consulted as the deadline approached?
We’re fond of saying that the brand is more than the logo. So imagine inconsistencies like a wrongly-coloured logo being rolled out across image selections, video or even error-strewn copy in a magazine ad? In the modern age, as we scroll through our news feeds consuming content at a ferocious rate, all of your brand’s marketing materials must be recognisable and consistent. There’s so much out there to say – and so much out there that can go wrong. So it’s essential that your target audience can attach true meaning to what you have to say and what you have to show them so you can build trust and a strong brand identity that holds you in good stead for the future.
At Fifteen, we work with you to create digital brand guidelines that reflect your values, brand personality and marketing objectives. Designs, brand voice, target markets, competitor analysis and SEO research are just the beginning. This in-depth service helps you create an anchor point to inform every aspect of your brand and keep your messaging consistent and reliable.
Digital Brand Identity
Creating a sharp digital brand identity and logo is second nature to us. We’ve years of experience in elevating a brand’s digital identity new and old in this way. But we believe brands today need to consider not only a logo, a font, or a brand image in isolation. It’s essential to think how all of your communications work together. Because of a photo on Facebook and a headline in a print advert all matter in our multi-channel world. It all needs to work together to create meaning and recognition in your audience’s mind. With our digital brand identity services, we don’t just develop a “logo” – even though that itself would work differently on different channels. We’ll rock your world with a visual system, where typography, brand colours and imagery combine to show off you and your communications. To engage. To delight. To make people smile.
Digital Brand Guidelines
In the multi-channel galaxy, you’ll want your communications to be recognised as your own. You’ll want the way your brand is presented to be consistent so that there is order in the chaos. We have years of experience in creating digital brand guidelines – a document that explains how your brand’s visual system works. Taking into account the digital brand identity, colour codes, typography, layouts and graphic systems, images and examples of uses. Whether online as a brand portal to aid global clients or as a printed edition to have on your desk, this is a digital brand guidelines rulebook you can issue to anyone who’s ever going to work with or on your brand. It means that all of your materials are produced consistently. And you’ll never be a rogue logo again.
Brand Portfolio Architecture
Not every brand is, well… a brand. A single brand. There’s every chance you’ll have sub-brands, different product ranges, and multiple personalities in a complex world. You may well have different brand identities now or plan to add to your brand portfolio in the future. We’re skilled at bringing order to the chaos – making sure that we don’t just give structure, but that each of the identities works well in isolation and among all of your brands. We bring logic and reason to the creativity. That means we will build your brand equity with a clear strategy of how to grow your brand portfolio
The Process of Brand Refinement
Brands are always in a state of flux – and you’ll likely be thinking years ahead for your own business. You’ll have future aims. Passions. Goals. So we’ll work with you, one-on-one, with your teams or as part of your team, in a collaborative process to help refine your brand. That means we listen and create meaningful dialogue in developing the creative look and feel to ensure your vision is future-proofed. It’s a two-way thing – it’s you and us. And we’ll give you a crystal-clear project process as the project detonates into something fresh, collaborative and concise.
