Hi Everyone! I recently wrote an article about the importance of branding. My goal in writing this is to give early founders who are thinking about doing branding a starting point. Thought I can share it here in case anyone finds it useful!
In the sea of savvy digital companies nowadays, it is more important than ever to stand out. You might be thinking, "well, if I have a super awesome product, do I even need a brand?"
While having a great product that meets the customer's needs is the most crucial aspect of your business, branding doesn't hurt. If done well, branding can help to add trust and build relationships between you and your customers.
Branding is not about you. It's about your customers: how they feel and what they say about your product.
Answers from these two questions can be the guiding light for you to visualize your brand. You can answer the first question by researching your customers. The second question you can answer by using what you know about your customers and communicating your product's unique values.
Creative collaterals like logos, brand color, brand typeface are known as brand identity systems. The brand identity system is one of the essential parts of the branding process. It helps you think creatively and intentionally about communicating your brand visually to your customers while setting up a visual system for your brand message to stay consistent, trustworthy, and memorable.
