Your Logo & Visual Identity
Your logo identifies your business or product in its simplest form. It does this via the use of a mark, symbol or signature. What a logo means is so much more important than what it actually looks like.
Your logo is only the first step in creating your company’s identity.
In most cases, identity design is based around the visual devices used within a company and assembled within a set of guidelines. The guidelines that make up an identity usually administer how the identity is applied throughout a variety of mediums, using approved colour palettes, fonts, layouts, measurements and so forth. These guidelines ensure that the identity of the company is kept coherent, which in turn, allows the brand as a whole, to be recognisable.
IdeaZone’s visual identity package includes a complete set of tools to launch and solidify your company’s complete branding.
Print Marketing
Media for the Senses
The most important benefit of print media is tangibility.
By triggering multiple senses, print media will add to the effectiveness of your message. Martin Lindstrom, writer of Brand Sense, says that when brands appeal to more than three senses, advertising effectiveness will increase with 70 per cent.
In many ways, print is the ideal marketing medium: it’s available in both large and small numbers, can be accessed easily, and is engaging, versatile and creative. All types of print media has their own unique quality and role in their readers’ lives.
