BEginS WITH A
BRAND INTENSIVE BRIEF
Our Website Design and Branding Process begins with the Discovery Phase and a Brand Intensive Brief. The Brand Intensive Brief is a comprehensive review we facilitate to gather essential information about your business, industry and competitors. This preliminary work is crucial for developing and refining your brand effectively.
WHY THE BRAND BRIEF MATTERS
Focusing on media design before establishing your Brand Market Strategy is like putting the cart before the horse and can lead to brand management inefficiencies and less impactful messaging. Our Brand Intensive Brief ensures that we build a strong foundation for your brand identity and website design, aligning all elements with your strategic goals.
KEY COMPONENTS BRAND INTENSIVE BRIEF
Before diving into Brand Identity and Website Design, we focus on the first 4 key components of the Brand Intensive Brief:
-
Brand Vision Purpose Mission Values
-
SWOT Analysis
-
Brand Placement
-
Target Audience
-
Brand Tone
-
Brand Story
-
Brand Micro-Messaging
-
Brand Design Aesthetic | Persona
-

Website Development
The insights from the Brand Intensive Brief will shape a cohesive Brand Market Strategy that clearly defines WHY your business exists, WHAT you do, and HOW you do it. This framework helps articulate your brand beliefs, future goals, commitments and philosophies, enhancing internal and external communication. It ensures your brand resonates with and attracts ideal customers, and improves consistent communication with employees, leadership, suppliers, and other stakeholders.
Once your Brand Market Strategy is in place, sales, marketing and social media initiatives can be driven with strategic purpose, rather than arbitrary preferences that change over time. The Brand Intensive Brief starts the website design and branding by focusing on these areas prior to building your Brand Identity and designing your Website.
