More than just
a makeover
this is
Brand Therapy™
Ground-Up
Auditing
We audit brands layer by layer, from the ground up
Strategy first, then positioning, then identity, then comms, assets & collateral
Each layer is built upon the previous, so by suggesting changes to the foundations we can envision an entirely new structure
Inherent
Value
We’re a hands-on agency, so we don’t just describe problems, we describe solutions
We can also execute those solutions if needed
Our audits can also be taken to another agency, or brought in-house to be acted upon, so no expense is wasted
It’s like hiring an architect to draw up a blueprint - you can always go to another architect or builder to actually build the building - the blueprint has inherent value
Actual
Deliverables
Deliverables vary widely between projects, depending on what's required to solve the problem
But our deliverables are always highly functional
They can include workshops, brand books, templates, guidelines & ongoing support
Not just another consultancy
Go beyond an audit with Brand Therapy
Attention Is
The Only Currency
Like it or not, the world's attention span is about 1 second, if you're lucky
This is how long brands have to make a unique, valuable & motivating impression
So we design brands that are ultra-bold, ultra-clear & ultra-accessible
We're Gardeners
Not Carpenters
We believe brands are living organisms, not pieces of furniture
So we don't build fixed items that will never change
We create identity systems that have room to grow, blossom & bloom, in ways unimaginable at the outset
So when your focus changes, or your team expands, or more partners become involved, our systems will grow with you
Your Story is Your Unique Power
