Brand messaging is a vehicle to help customers understand what an organization can offer and what values the organization lives and breathes. Shaping your brand messaging is paramount to a company’s success as it articulates your brand’s promise and encourages interest in a company’s products and services. Focused Image can help your business shape a powerful brand message that clearly identifies why customers should buy from you and not the next door down.
Integrated Branding Campaigns
The prime directive of most branding campaigns is to convert prospects into customers. An integrated marketing campaign combines multiple channels such as content, email, display advertising, and social media to promote a clear and consistent message to a specific audience. We run integrated branding campaigns to build on the rational and emotional levers of your customers and can teach you how to leverage that pull to your benefit.
Brand Guidelines
A primary objective of brand guidelines is to ensure that an organization uses the same brand elements across the board, regardless of division or department. Focused Image produces brand guidelines that provide accurate and reliable information about the business, the tools and standards for using brand names, logos, typefaces, and other design elements in advertisements, brochures, newsletters, packaging, and online communications. These guidelines ensure that brand consistency and discipline are followed to the letter.
