Branding & Graphic Design

Branding is what people say about you

when you're not in the room.

Your brand shapes your meaning, values and how people feel when they interact with your brand.

You want your product/service to leave an impression on your customer long after they've had a direct interaction.

Your brand is your why - the passion behind what you do. Graphic design is the process of shaping and maintaining a consistent visual impression. This lays the groundwork needed to pursue marketing tactics that support perceptions of quality, lead generation and customer loyalty.

Visual Design Elements

Stylescapes. The visual elements of your brand will help determine the style of the website.

Your brand is very important as the website will visually convey key brand ideas within the design. Using your completed brand questionnaire as a foundation we will create stylescapes which include the visual brand elements and provide a visual aesthetic of how the website will look and feel.

A wireframe is created, defining how the content and applications will interrelate.

Development

The design is passed on to our development team to work their magic.

 Once the site has all its visual and written content and applications have been integrated, the pages are ready to be tested. This ensures all links are working and that the website loads properly on all devices and browsers.
Then it's time for everyone's favourite part of the website design process: the launch!

 Maintenance/Aftercare

Although the launch is an exciting milestone, it's nowhere near the end of the job.

Websites are dynamic entities that require care and maintenance. Once the site is live you can monitor analytics, make changes to the backend and refine your messaging.

Research

We will get to know you and your business and what you want to achieve with your social media.

Completion of GummyBear's social media questionnaire will provide the foundational concepts for your brand. We will ask about what social media you already have, what digital assets you have and begin a preliminary plan of how we will go through the process with you.

Strategy

Clients goals, what's happening in the industry and what's popular in social media.

Based on the clients goals, what's happening in the industry (other competitors), and what's popular in social media at the time (e.g. Instagram reels are super valuable at the moment) we will create a strategy for your social media.

Design

Working with you to achieve your goals, we will start creating content.

This will be tailored to your specific requirements and what you want to use social media for. For example, we can create social media accounts for you, create content, arrange photography, build marketing funnels and run your social media accounts, to name a few. Once we have created content, we will send it to you for feedback/approval before posting.

Implementation

We will begin publishing your content!

The world now gets to see your offerings and learn about your business. To help manage this, we can use scheduling tools to ensure your content always goes out at the right time. We can also add new content into the campaign at this stage, for example if you wanted to promote a certain product or were having a sale that you wanted to boost.

Analytics

We ensure the content matches the platform it will be posted on and stay up to date with monthly analytic reports.

This allows us to understand how users are engaging with your content, so we know what is and isn't working, and then we can expand on that and do more of what is working.

To begin we will develop an overall plan to ensure we are perfectly aligned with your project objectives.

That means a meeting with you to make sure we have a crystal-clear understanding of the message you want to present. Once we have a solid idea of what you want to achieve, our team will develop an overall conceptual approach for how we can translate your story into a digital format.

Design the story you want to tell through your imagery.

Storyboarding provides a clear idea of how the production will unfold. We will create a list of what imagery or videos we need, who will be in them, and where they will be taken so that when it gets time to do the shoot everything will be ready.

System Blueprint

The next stage involves us creating a system blueprint that incorporates business logic and functional data flow.

The blueprint will be an outline that provides a detailed visual representation of how the system will look.

Interactive Wireframe

Once the system blueprint has been created, we can move on to the wireframe for the structure and flow of the system.

The wireframe will focus on the user experience to ensure the system is designed in an easy to use, user friendly way.

Research

Creating your buyer personas and understanding why a consumer would buy from your brand.

The first step involves developing buyer personas, or avatars, to represent your target market. We will research your industry, what your consumers want, what they like, and their needs recognition.

Social media services - funnels, branding, social media posting, content creation - GummyBear Digital Marketing

Content Creation

We will create content that aims to provide a solution to a potential customer's needs or pain point.

This helps with grabbing consumers attention, through 'brand awareness' channels, even if they weren't actively looking for a solution (i.e. your product or service). An example of channels used in this stage include social media posts and paid ads.

Research icon - GummyBear Digital Marketing

Create

Create the information your customers want to know

Once you have created interest, you can begin sending customers to your website. In this stage, the channels most commonly used are content marketing, SEO and social media. This is your chance to establish authority and create brand trust amongst your potential customers.

Examples of our work

A serious but approachable nature.

The DBAS logo has been refreshed to express the organisation and their goals better. Three different concepts were created and then the final logo was refined from the concepts.

A pair of speech bubbles represent their services which always begins with a conversation. Moving away from the corporate feel, the new logo is much more friendly and inviting. The logo incorporates a pair of speech bubbles which are then used throughout the site to create a feeling of open conversation.

Brand discovery for an innovative accounting firm

Insight was started by three accountants who wanted to start their own firm based around honesty and transparency with their clients.

When they came to us, they didn't have any branding and hadn't chosen a name yet, so we went through the brand discovery process with them.

We designed their logo and created brand guidelines for them focusing on their brand colours, fonts and logo use.
