Branding FAQs
How long does a typical branding project take from start to finish?
- A typical comprehensive branding project takes 8-12 weeks, depending on scope and complexity. We provide detailed timelines during the initial consultation and update you with regular milestone reviews.
What's included in your brand guidelines, and why are they important?
- Our brand guidelines include logo usage, typography, colour specifications, tone of voice, imagery style, and digital and print media examples. They ensure consistency as your business grows, enabling employees and partners to represent your brand accurately and cohesively.
Can you work with businesses outside of Manchester and the UK?
- We work with clients globally using video calls, collaborative online tools, and digital project management platforms. Our process is designed for seamless collaboration, and we’ve delivered successful projects across Europe, North America, and beyond for clients.
What happens if we're unsatisfied with the initial brand concepts?
- To ensure your satisfaction, we offer unlimited revisions in all packages. If initial concepts don’t align with your vision, we revisit the strategy phase, conduct additional research if needed, and develop new directions, keeping you involved throughout to minimise misalignment.
Do you provide ongoing support after the brand launch?
- We offer ongoing support options, including brand management retainers, quarterly brand health checks, additional asset creation, and strategic consultation. These services help keep your brand relevant and effective as your business scales.
What file formats and assets will we receive upon project completion?
- You’ll receive a comprehensive brand asset library with vector files (AI, EPS), high-resolution PNGs and JPEGs, web-optimised formats (SVG, WebP), social media templates, letterhead designs, and custom illustrations or photography, all with clear usage instructions for perpetual use.
Can you help with trademark registration and brand protection?
- While we don’t provide legal services directly, we collaborate with intellectual property lawyers and can facilitate introductions. We conduct preliminary trademark searches during the design process and advise on brand names and logos likely to be registrable, protecting your investment from the start.
