Your brand is not what you think it is, it’s what other people say it is. You can accept what they’re saying, or shape the narrative and steer the conversation.
Instead of just pitching
Brandad’s services, this page
provides information and insights
The fundamental building blocks that define the brand determine what it is, what it does, and where it’s headed.
The reason, the mission, and the driving principles
What the brand is known as relative to the competition
What the brand offers and the benefit it provides
A clear foundation provides context, sets the tone, and aligns expectations.
Lack of commitment to the fundamentals or inconsistency in execution lead to indifference, attrition, and churn. Conversely, an intentional, consistent, and outstanding experience spurs conversion, dedication, reputation, and admiration.
1. Interviewing the stakeholders to uncover the first principles that drive the brand
2. Analyzing the competition, and interviewing customers
3. Synthesizing the essence into an authentic narrative that communicates meaning, substance, and sentiment
4. Testing and iterating
A brand is not in the store, a brand is in the mind.
―Rory Sutherland

Every word, action, and detail can be molded to shape the intended perception and drive meaningful action.

Just like a people’s, a brand’s personality is a combination of its story and identity.

Shapes, colors, and details that make the brand recognizable wherever it is
The rules and principles that drive design and communication consistency
The brand is the visible island at the tip of an underwater mountain
