Why running a value based business means you will still have a business when this is all over

April 14, 2020

We are being asked a lot how Covid-19 is affecting our business. What all of this means for our little Company of One, what we are doing with all our “extra time” and are we worried about what the future holds?

DIVERSIFICATION IN SMALL BUSINESS

August 13, 2019

It can be challenging being a small business owner. Sometimes you feel like an expert in one really niche area of the world, and wonder how the hell the person who needs your services will ever find you. Or else, you feel like a jack of all trades but a master of none – and it tends to swing from one extreme to the other.

Where have all my followers gone?

November 20, 2017

There have been a lot of conversations lately around the watercooler about social media engagement. About how brands are getting less and less of it, the platforms are charging you more and more to reach your audience (in the form of advertising) and the penalties that come after advertising. There is a reasonable amount of fear going on, that brands have lost their followers, and they are right to be afraid.

THE NON-REBRAND REBRAND; OR, HOW TO FRESHEN UP YOUR BRAND WITHOUT A NEW LOGO.

October 25, 2017

A rebrand doesn’t have to be a completely new logo design. Because branding is made up of so many more elements than just your logo, by changing any of the core elements of what it is that makes up your visual identity you can completely refresh the look of your brand without having to lose the heritage and history of your brand.   A logo should always be designed to stand the test of time. A logo is not the place to try out the Pantone colour of the year, or that new drawing technique just released by Adobe Illustrator, despite what your design student niece might tell you. Your logo should be timeless and should still hold the same values that you placed in it when it was originally created. But it is absolutely true, that after a bit of time, the other visual elements of your brand can need a bit of a refresh, a touch up, a realignment, to make sure that your brand continues to say what you want it to say, and continues to be relevant to the constantly evolving nature of business. Imagery, colour and layout are the quickest and easiest ways to give your brand a fresh new look, without throwing the logo out with the branding or baby out with the bathwater as it may be. A great example of this is the recent website redesign that I completed for the team at Hair by Phd. By simply updating their visual presence with a fresh new website, fantastic imagery and some new brand colours, we were able to completely revamp their presence. From their website to social media and print design, giving them a bold new look was simple – without having to change their well recognised and long-standing logo. Similarly for Objective Corporation. By updating the layout of all of their marketing materials, incorporating new brand imagery and playing on their long-standing brand colour through the use of a tonal palette, they were able to refresh their brand without losing a logo that has so much weight in a marketing in which they have operated for years. In both cases, these changes are neither simple nor subtle – in fact, they are quite dramatic, and as such, make a huge impact on the presence of and perception of the brand. And sometimes, that may be exactly what your brand needs to…

THE BEST OF ‘THE HALL’ BY TYPO

June 18, 2014

The Home store by Typo best of range

I firmly believe that design is about more than the company branding you project and the brochures that you create. The graphic design that I produce is heavily influenced by my personal tastes in homewares, clothing and interior style, and these same elements are then brought across as appropriate to the customer.
