Our signature process is proven to help your brand get noticed by everyone

Our visual branding process is structured to not only create a beautiful visual identity system, but also to help you clarify your brand purpose and strengthen your brand’s core foundation, for a more heart-centered approach to branding. All of our branding packages will provide you with the perfect foundation to make your mark, while providing you with the right tools and resources to support you as your brand continues to grow.

Discovery & Proposal

The first phase of every project is the Discovery Call to get to know you and learn about your goals, where you might be stuck, and how we can help you succeed!

If we find that we're a good fit, we'll prepare a Project Proposal for your branding package. Our proposals detail how we would approach the task at hand and the specifics for your project. We curate each brand identity project with precisely the right deliverables that your brand needs —because there's usually no 'one-size-fits-all' package.

If you decide to go ahead, the contract is signed, the deposit is paid, and your project is scheduled into our calendar. We'll then move to the next phase to kick off your project!

Pre-work & Strategy

A successful brand has a complete visual branding system in place to build trust and loyalty. We'll help develop and refine your core foundation by providing our custom DIY Brand Blueprint Kit. With this, you can plan your brand strategy and styling that everyone will love. This is a practical step-by-step guidebook and workbook that's overflowing with helpful guidance for crafting a brand with heart. It also features several exercises, templates, and resources to take the guesswork out of the entire branding process.

With the brand's foundation and some style preferences submitted, we'll review it thoroughly to make sure we understand your answers, and conduct research of our own. With both, we can start to create a strong strategy to get your brand noticed. Other questions may arise that can be discussed, so we will hop on a Clarity Call. At the end of this phase, your brand strategy will be all sewn up, and we'll have a solid base to work from moving forward.

Moodboard & Styling

Here's where the fun starts! Armed with all we gathered from the previous phases, things can start getting more visual! We'll jump into things by creating your second set of deliverables, starting with a moodboard based on your brand inspiration.

As we develop the moodboard, we also take time to prepare our custom color palette and font suite recommendations. These are based on your preferences, as well as the psychology of colors and the personality of fonts. Then we will send it off to you for your review.

Once we've agreed on a theme that resonates with you, we'll prepare a Design Brief to show your brand's core essence and where we plan on taking it in the design phase.

Concepts & Refinement

Now is where it all starts to come together — the design phase!

We will begin drafting your brand identity, starting with your logo. With some brainstorming, we'll dump all of our ideas for a logo, and present our choice for your primary logo in greyscale, along with some secondary options for feedback.

Once we decide on the best approach, we will refine the design until we get a solid primary logo. Then, it's time to expand the design further and develop your identity kit.

Identity Kit & Add-Ons

Now that we have a logo established, it's time to expand the design further and develop the rest of your identity kit. We'll apply the design to the remaining pieces of your identity kit and create mock-ups for the final presentation.

Beyond your identity kit, your package can include several other services to help you grow and be expanded upon as your brand's needs evolve. This can include:

WordPress Website Design & Development
Social Media Strategy & Styling
Workshops & Consultations

Feedback & Revisions

It's time to review the full package!

We will mock up and present the full identity kit to get your feedback. Although several phases require input, this step is essential to make sure that you are happy with all of the pieces.

Based on the feedback and discussion, we will refine and tweak a chosen concept. Mostly these may mean minor changes to the color theme, different layouts, or alternative typefaces.

Finalization & Delivery

Once we are sure that you're happy with your design, and the logo is perfect, we can put the finishing touches on everything!

All the appropriate formats and layouts are included, along with monotone black and white versions for varied usage backgrounds. Any collateral files will also be packaged in these formats, where applicable, along with the necessary formats for images, colors, and fonts. The digital files for the materials we've created for you will be neatly arranged in an online folder so you can use it for all future projects.

To make sure you know how to use everything going forward, you'll be getting an Alignment Guide along with your Brand Guidelines. Together they will help you succeed using your new brand identity, with less room for error!

Launch & Celebrate

Now it's time to celebrate — there's a big day ahead!

Starting with planning the launch date and roll-out (i.e., how and when your brand will be launched on various channels). Since there are various steps involved with launching a brand, we created a Launch Planner to help you plan for and execute your official launch. It includes planning both the launch date and communication strategies, and make sure you haven't missed anything. Once that's completed, it's finally time to launch your brand!

With your brand launched to the public, we'll help drive traffic by debuting it on our website and social media platforms. We will link to your website or social media so that you can gain some exposure. After that, it's time to break out the bubbly!
