High heels in wet grass is an analogy used to stress the importance of narrowing a brand's focus to create greater impact. This blog explains the importance of taking the time to be intentional with messaging and customer service.
Brand building is different from marketing. Messaging and visuals are steered by brand strategy and implemented through marketing efforts to capture a sale. What happens in addition to the sale or service in terms of customer experience is guided by the brand strategy. Things like product guarantees or loyalty programs are done by organizations who want their customers to stand behind the product or service as much as they do.
Taking the time to find and enhance your brand can have a massive impact on your business. Our clients have seen everything from increased web traffic to massive influxes in sales after they went through a re-brand with us.
Creating a slew of items to represent your brand can become an inconsistent mess if the brand isn’t defined on the front end. Even if a visual identity is beautifully created and looks really great, there still needs to be a foundational structure that holds everything together when it comes to messaging and the reason that a brand’s identity looks the way it does.
It’s inevitable. You’re creating a new brand in a well known industry and you have lots of competition. It seems that everything design wise has been done already and you’re not sure which way to go when creating your brand. We dive into the foundation of the organization and build the brand upwards from there.
With any brand, in any industry, you need to build a thoughtful relationship with your customer. This relationship starts the first moment they see your brand elements such as a logo or webpage. How do you tailor your brand to make it feel a certain way?
Any time you wander into the beer section of a liquor store, grocery store or convenience store you are sure to be overwhelmed with the amount of choices.

Quill Definition: Brand Identity is, in its most basic form, the soul of an organization. The brand identity acts as a north star so that all representatives for the brand can confidently align their actions to best represent the values and personality of the company and maintain the path to fulfill the mission and chase the vision.
Many people may think of design as a purely creative process that relies on artistic inspiration. In actuality, design should be a marriage of logic and creativity and Creative Problem Solving (CPS) is the essential process that powers that marriage.
A brand is more than the face of a company-- it's the personality, values and mission behind the visual represented for both consumers and company staff. Creating a solid foundation of research and core values is essential before building the brand.
