Establishing Your Brand

Companies like Coca-Cola, Starbucks, Nike, and many other high-caliber organizations have created very strict and established rules for how others receive, see, and hear their brands. When you see a Coca-Cola logo, image, picture, print ad, TV commercial, or social media post you always see the appropriate color, style, size, font, and acceptable uses of their logo. If any of Coca-Cola’s vendors or partners were to change their branding or publish any form of media that is not compliant with Coca-Cola’s style and branding guidelines, that vendor could be subject to legal action by Coca-Cola for violating their brand guidelines. The potential negative impact that could have on their company could be enormous. This is why you would NEVER see a blue Coca-Cola logo, with different colors, different sizes, with different styles of writing(font), and for many great reasons some of which I have previously stated. What each of us sees each time we see any type of media from Coca-Cola is their brand. The company takes its brand development very seriously and Coca-Cola wants to ensure that the message it sends to its audience is one of consistency, and integrity, and ensures the audience is taken on the journey that Coca-Cola wants each of us to partake in.
Think about that each time you decide to post via social media. Is that post positively impacting your brand? Each time you post images, videos, and content or create flyers for your company, does the messaging, images, font, and words follow a consistent theme, or is the message you are sending to your customers all over the place?  This conceptually is the program that we offer to ensure your brand communication is exceptional!
Before you even consider selling to customers or working with clients, you should develop your brand.  To begin to establish your brand, all you need to do is essentially raise your hand to let your audience know “Hello I am here and excited to work with you!” You are also raising your hand and stating “Hello, I have a great product, service, offering and I think you should take notice of our company’s difference” “We think what we have to offer will better support what you are looking for!” 
Let us help you define a clear and consistent message that will resonate with your targeted audience.

Let’s think about Branding in your terms.  Of course, you are not close in size to McDonalds, so not everyone is going to recognize your logo as they would the Golden Arches ( At least not today ).  But, you can and should begin the process of creating and sticking to a brand to build your brand identity with your audience.  Once you have designed a logo you love, it is critically important that your vendors, retailers, customers, and partners use the correct font, color, size, and acceptable use best practices for your logo or company insignia.  Remember, this is your brand!  Every time a customer notices your logo or insignia in a public setting they are going to identify with your company as you would hope they should.   The more your brand is identified in their memory, it will become second nature that they should conduct business with you.  Think of it this way we open up our web browser to search for a good or service online, most of us say we are going to “Google that store” instead of saying “I am going to open a search engine to search for a local business”.  Isn’t that incredibly powerful for Google?  Over 90 million people per day use Google’s search engine.  Wouldn’t it be fantastic if over 90 million people per day chose your brand?
In addition to establishing acceptable use policies and best practices for your logo, many other elements are prescribed in developing your company’s “Style and Branding Guide”.  Your Style and Branding Guide is a key element or white paper concerning your company’s branding.   We will support your efforts in establishing your brand through the effective development of your very own Style and Branding guide.  These helpful white papers can be shared with your vendors, partners, and business contacts for compliance and consistency.
