Branding Process

Research & Discovery

Research highlights the opportunities and challenges that shape your brand strategy.
Market Research
We analyze markets to find opportunities, risks, and trends. These insights define how your brand can compete and grow.
Competitor Analysis
We review competitor strategies to identify gaps and points of difference. This positions your business for long-term success.
Customer Interviews
When needed, we speak directly with your customers. Their feedback reveals needs and motivations that guide messaging and design.
Stakeholder Interviews
We also talk with founders and team leads. Their perspectives ensure the strategy supports business goals and customer expectations.

Brand Strategy

Define the strategic foundations including positioning, messaging, and audience clarity that guide every brand decision.
Brand Positioning
We help define your place in the market. Positioning highlights what makes you different, communicates your value, and shows customers why your brand matters.
Audience Profiles
We create profiles that capture behaviors and needs, not generic personas. These guide messaging, design, and engagement across digital channels and touchpoints.
Messaging Framework
We build a framework that keeps communication consistent. Every element aligns with your values, positioning, and tone of voice.
Brand Naming
For early-stage startups, we also support brand naming. We explore creative directions and test options to ensure the final name is distinctive, memorable, and scalable.

Brand Identity

We translate strategy into a creative identity that builds the visual and verbal systems representing your brand.
Visual Territories
Before creating identity concepts, we explore visual territories to align on mood, tone, and style. These moodboard collages show potential directions and help set the look and feel.
Brand Concepts
We present early concepts that align with the chosen territory before refining. These combine storytelling and design, giving a preview of how your brand could show up and be experienced.
Visual Identity
We design a distinctive logo, select typography, and define a color palette. Together, these elements create a consistent brand identity that reflects your strategy.
Brand Guidelines
We create a comprehensive guideline that explains how to use your logo, fonts, imagery, and tone. This ensures consistency across brand and marketing applications.

Marketing Collateral

We extend your brand into practical applications that build recognition and support growth across all channels.
Marketing Websites
After a branding project, we help bring your identity to life with a clear, conversion-focused website. The site communicates value, builds trust, and delivers strong user experience.
Pitch Decks
We design pitch decks and presentation templates that tell your brand story. These tools engage investors, support fundraising, and demonstrate credibility.
Merchandise
With a strong brand, merchandise can amplify recognition. Staff wear it proudly, and you stand out at industry events.
Marketing Materials
Where needed, we also create supporting materials such as email signatures, business cards, and event signage. These keep every touchpoint consistent.
