The BN Branding Process

Our step-by-step branding


process saves you time,
eliminates false starts, and
maximizes your marketing
budget.
Branding is a broad, misunderstood discipline
that touches every aspect of your business. So
we break it all down, and walk you through it.
One affordable step at a time.

Our disciplined, words-first branding process


begins with strategic thinking and message
development. Because no amount of design
wizardry will help if you don’t start with a solid,
well-defined brand strategy. Schedule a phone
call to learn more.

It’s your brand. You choose where to


start.

Many of our clients approach us for a name, a


new website or a re-fresh of their brand identity.
And that’s great. We’re happy to help. But we’d be
doing you a DIS-service if we didn’t back up, for
just a moment, to cover some of the preliminary
steps you may have missed…

Branding Process Step 1: Research &


Discovery

Our research and discovery efforts will provide


actionable insight on the realities of your market,
the competitive situation, the consumer, your
corporate culture and any operational issues that
can affect your branding efforts. We apply the
same process to even the smallest clients, but
the depth and extent of our research is dictated
by your budget.

Branding Process Step 2: Brand


Strategy

We use that insight to clarify your brand strategy.


This is the foundation of your long term branding
efforts, so it’s important to be completely honest
and to spell it out very clearly.

Our brand strategy document is designed to be


the bible of your brand, and a long-term asset for
your company. The goal here is to eliminate any
confusion and hone in a one, specific value
proposition and story line for your brand that you
can deliver on, every day.

Branding Process Step 3: Brand Identity


Development

With the brand strategy as a guide, we will come


up with a name and a graphic that work magically
together to become an iconic symbol in your
particular niche.

Namestorming, by itself, is a tremendously


valuable exercise, especially for start-up brands.
You can’t just take an existing name and add ly to
the end. You need a name that’s memorable AND
protectable. Because you don’t want to have to
go back to the drawing board one year later due
to trademark issues.

Step 4: Website Development

For most companies your website is still the


centerpiece of your online presence. Instagram,
YouTube, LinkedIn and all the other channels
drive interested prospects to the website.

Our web development work flows naturally from


the strategy and design thinking that’s done up
front. Using visual cues from the brand identity
design, we plan, program, design and deploy a
website that will move the needle on three
important fronts: Differentiation, Relevance and
Credibility. These are the fundamentals of
branding in a digital world.

Step 5: Marketing Planning

This is critically important these days because the


marketing landscape is changing rapidly. And
there’s always more tactical stuff to do than there
is budget. We can’t solve all your marketing
problems. And chances are, you can’t manage
every detail either. It has to be a team effort. We’ll
help you sort through all the “marketing
opportunities” and deliver a tactical marketing
plan that’s focused, fiscally responsible, and
most importantly, doable.

Step 6: Tactical Execution

We’re not done when the identity is designed and


the website is up. We stick with you and make
sure your marketing tactics are implemented
according to plan, and in a memorable way.

It’s the on-going branding effort that will


maintain your visibility in the market place and
help new customers find you. You’ll get better
results, with fewer headaches.
