BRANDING

Branding is the five-sensory manifestation of a brand; its promises, personality, beliefs and attitudes.

Building a brand is not about a logo, a catchy color palette or a tagline. Building a brand is about understanding its DNA, how the intangibles translate to multisensory experiences, and ultimately how to manage, nurture and grow the brand to its fullest potential.

Brand Platform

Through knowledge and understanding, defining the critically fundamental framework and parameters to facilitate conversation

 

  • Persona - developing a human-centered brand personality
  • Positioning - what makes the brand stand out and unique against its competitors
  • Culture - values and beliefs

  • Brand Narrative - content and communication strategy, built upon brand’s messaging architecture, to deliver core promises and values through various channels; communication points, taglines, slogans, advertising copy.
