OUR BRAND
STRATEGY SERVICES

When employed as a brand strategy agency, our services typically fall into three categories:

Creating a brand:

Typically requested by start-ups, creating a brand is the process of defining its unique identity, values, and positioning in the market. It includes elements like name, logo, messaging, visual identity and brand guidelines. A well-crafted brand can drive customer loyalty and business growth.

Rebranding:

Rebranding is the process of creating a new image or identity for a brand. It can be done to reflect changes in the company, improve reputation, or target new markets. It involves updating elements such as the logo, messaging, and visual identity. A successful rebranding can help a business stay relevant and competitive in today’s market.

Elevating a brand:

For existing brands in need of a refresh, elevating your brand is the process of improving its reputation, standing, and value in the market. This can be achieved through better positioning, messaging, and visual identity, improving customer experience, and consistently delivering on the brand promise (we call this ‘the thread’).

Elevating your brand can help increase customer loyalty, drive sales, and attract new customers.

A brand strategy is a plan that outlines how a brand will be developed, managed, and positioned in the market. It includes defining the brand’s purpose, values, personality, and messaging.

It includes defining the target market for particular campaigns, pricing, and promotional activities such as advertising, PR, and social media.
