Branding starts with black & white, the core.
This is where your Business & Visuals meet.
I help your business to discover its core and align it to the messaging and visuals, so that you can stand out and gain trust with your audience.
This is branding from start to finish. I start by doing a Brand Audit that identifies the problem. Then it follows with an interactive Brand Workshop to find solutions for the problems. The next part is where my hands get dirty. I apply the solution visually with a creative direction or design. I do not leave you in the dark and also offer to create a Brandbook to assist with Brand consistency and have a regular Brand Check-Up, to see if everything is on Brand.
The success of your brand is my happy place, together with the ocean and a glass of wine.

Brand Audit
This is a comprehensive evaluation of your company's brand to assess its current position and identify areas for improvement. The process typically involves several key steps. First, the audit examines the company's brand identity, including its visual elements, messaging, and values. This involves reviewing the logo, tagline, website, marketing materials, and any other brand assets. Next, the audit assesses the brand's perception among its target audience and compares it to competitors' brands. This may involve conducting surveys, interviews, or analyzing social media sentiment.
The audit also analyzes the brand's consistency across different touchpoints and evaluates its overall brand equity and relevance. Based on the findings, the audit concludes by providing recommendations and strategies to enhance the brand's positioning, messaging, and overall impact in the market.

Brand Strategy
Brand strategy is the process that defines the long-term vision and direction of your brand. It begins by thoroughly understanding the target audience, market dynamics, and competitive landscape.

Regular monitoring and evaluation of the brand strategy allow for necessary adjustments and adaptations to stay relevant in an ever-evolving marketplace. Ultimately, brand strategy empowers a brand to forge strong connections, foster loyalty, and drive sustainable growth.
Brand Design
Brand design encompasses much more than just a logo.

This includes the logo, color palette, typography, imagery style, packaging design, website layout, and overall visual aesthetics.

It goes beyond aesthetics and considers the strategic use of design elements to communicate your brand's values, differentiate it from your competitors, and establish a strong brand recall.
Consistency in brand design across various touchpoints helps in building recognition, credibility, and a memorable brand experience for customers. In essence, brand design is the art and science of translating your brand's essence into a visually compelling and meaningful representation that connects with people on a deeper level.
