Do your brand identity and brand guidelines need reviewing?

Your brand guidelines are a statement of who you are as a company and what distinguishes you from others. As a result, these guidelines serve as the compass that directs every aspect of your brand, compelling customers to choose you. Consequently, with these guidelines, your uniqueness shines through and resonates with your target audience, ensuring a powerful and lasting impact.

Remember, your logo is not your whole brand; it acts as a symbol that guides customers to the brand experience. Additionally, together with your brand identity components – name, colour, strapline, and typeface – your logo serves to identify and legitimise your brand.

Today’s successful and thriving brands leave permanent impressions in our consciousness for a variety of reasons:

• Firstly, to launch an organisation, product or service.
• Secondly, re-launch an existing organisation, product or service.
• Thirdly, promote new ownership or positioning.
• Finally, attract investors, staff or customers.

Brand guidelines can vary significantly among organisations, but they typically encompass various essential elements. These guidelines serve as a foundational reference to ensure brand consistency and coherence. They begin by providing clear and precise rules for logo usage, which cover essential aspects like logo size, positioning, and contextual application.

Additionally, brand guidelines establish a specific and cohesive colour palette, comprising primary, secondary, and accent hues that encapsulate the brand’s identity. Typography guidelines dictate the use of fonts, type sizes, and styles to ensure uniformity and enhance brand recognition. Visual elements are outlined, encompassing details on imagery, photography styles, and graphic elements that align with the brand’s visual identity.

Messaging guidelines specify the brand’s tone of voice, and messaging strategies, and offer practical examples for effective communication with the target audience. Lastly, these guidelines also include practical instructions for implementing and applying brand consistency across various media, including both print materials and digital platforms.
