Hello, I’m Jim Glover, That Branding Guy, for Once
a Day Marketing™. Today we are discussing
how important it is that customer encounters with your brand are visually
appealing, send the message you want to convey and provide instant recognition
of the brand.
Visual cues about your company and brand are essential
for customers to understand your message.
The design process begins with the graphic artist understanding what the
client’s brand is all about and translating that into great visuals that have an
emotional impact.
A company’s logo has generally been thought of as an
extension of the brand. Extensive use in
the current digital environment, in apps and on small devices, has now made it a
key identifier of the brand. Now more
than ever it is essential to remember that less is more and focus on creating
designs that will draw in the customer.
Common errors businesses make when they are working on
design elements is not aligning to what the business does and desiring a
graphic that does not tell the appropriate story. Another mistake is that logo doesn't scale
well when downsized to fit into the space allocated for displaying an app on a
smart phone.
Establishing visual prompts for customers reaches beyond
logo or advertising designs. The appearance
of a store front, signage, etc. should be clear, inviting and informative as
well as convey what your business is about.
Leverage the 7Ps of marketing to review where visual cues may require
enhancement.
