Branding: The Big Picture
Brand and message consistency are a critically important foundation for marketing, for both businesses and nonprofits. But what is a brand?
A Brand is more than logos, taglines or clever ads. A brand represents a unique and enduring bond between a marketer and its targeted audience. A Brand is a promise of value to its markets and a source of pride and unity for its employees. It is an assurance of quality and consistency— a guarantee that the brand will deliver as promised each and every time.

A brand consistency example
We created and rebranded several marketing tools for a physician: brochure, gift certificate, mailer, magazine ads, referral card, open house invitation and radio spots. Result: consistent branding synchs with the style of a new aesthetic service and office. view branding samples [PDF]
And then there’s Google!
Google has a logo that pretty much everyone recognizes. Yet, on their website they proudly share what they call Google “doodles.” Plus they display “fan logos.“ Cool, but what happened to logos locked in cement for decades? Google changes everything!!!
