If you've seen our content, you know that value lies in the eye (and wallet) of the purchaser: your clients. There are many ways we can influence their perception of value. But one easily stands out: learning how to present and deliver work professionally.
Seeing our work in the wild, poorly designed, is easily our worst nightmare. Delivering beautiful work professionally, though, doesn't always prevent that nightmare from becoming a reality. There's no guarantee things will always be perfect, but having guidelines in place helps things get done well.
When you work in or on brands, your goals should be to future-proof the quality of your branding design work, provide more value to your clients, and get everyone from internal teams to external clients on the same page. Are you ready for an easy way to accomplish this?
Create a document that gives people who work on your brand clear visual guidelines. When everyone's on the same page, it results in consistent design across multiple touchpoints.
Set yourself apart by offering a complete visual identity instead of just sending a folder of logo files. Create more impact by making things easier for people who work on your brand.
Establishing your own style guide template will save you days worth of effort when the time comes to deliver your visual identity work. We've done all of the work so you don't have to.
