From the moment clients, customers and employees step through your door, their experience should live up to the one your brand and its products portray to the outside world.

If you’ve been reading here often or perusing our site, you’ve probably noticed that we care a lot about defining, building and projecting brands to be absorbed, spotted or considered by chosen audiences. That leads to initial sales, repeat purchases and having a strong presence in market. And that’s great for the big picture. But there’s another particularly important brand element that has a giant impact on business: the work environment.

Like individual members of a boy band, brands should have their own unique personalities. Is your brand the cool one? The funny one? Or maybe it’s the rugged one that’s surprisingly sensitive? When brands create a defined personality that sets them apart, we’re drawn to the ones we find most appealing or match our own personality. But instead of hanging their posters on our walls, we surround ourselves with their products.

Strong brands are more than just an identifiable logo or memorable tagline. Looking deeper, their positioning sets the foundation in developing their own perspective and becoming a meaningful part of culture embraced by a brand’s employees and their target audience.

Like a diesel-powered mind probe, surveys are an incredibly powerful tool that give you insight into the mind of your audience, offering a wealth of information to help you optimize your brand.

If your brand is growing in leaps and bounds, or not growing at all, a rebrand can help move it in the right direction.

Rebranding is part of the natural cycle for brands, but how do you know when it’s time? Sometimes, you don’t have to look any further than within your business for a sign.

Factors beyond your organization’s control can change the world your brand operates in. Successful businesses know when to change with it.

Don’t overlook the need for consumers to understand what your brand stands for.

Assessing your logo system needs starts with marketing needs.
