The Brand DevelopmentProcess

Typical timeline: 6-10 weeks depending on scope. Our structured approach ensures quality results and clear communication every step of the way.

1
Week 1-2

Phase 1: Discovery & Research

Deep dive into your business, audience, competitors, and market position. We analyze what's working, what's missing, and where opportunities exist.

2
Week 3-4

Phase 2: Strategy Development

Develop positioning strategy, target customer profiles, brand personality, value proposition, and competitive differentiation. Define brand foundation.

3
Week 5-7

Phase 3: Identity Creation

Design visual identity system including logo, color palette, typography, photography direction, and graphic elements. Multiple concepts refined to final direction.

4
Week 8-10

Phase 4: Messaging & Guidelines

Develop brand voice, messaging framework, and comprehensive brand guidelines documenting all standards and usage rules.

What You Needto Start

Before we begin development, here's what helps ensure a smooth and successful project.

1

Some level of design direction

Sketches, reference images, existing products to improve, or clear concept descriptions. We can refine and develop, but need starting point.

2

Realistic budget expectations

Development costs vary by complexity. Simple t-shirt development differs from technical outerwear or formal wear.

3

Time for approvals and feedback

We need your input at key stages. Development stalls when clients can't provide timely feedback.

4

Understanding this takes time

Quality development isn't' rushed. Complex products take longer than simple ones. We provide realistic timelines upfront.

Don't have everything ready? That's perfectly fine. We can help you develop these elements during our initial consultation. The key is having some starting point and realistic expectations about the development process.
