It’s not news that, here at Templafy, we think branding is incredibly important. Brands have a large amount of marketing power and are a vital way in which products or services are sold, directly leading to a rise in revenue and a successful organization.
What comes to mind when you think of Apple? What comes to mind when you think of Starbucks? And what comes to mind when you think of BMW? Everything which you have just considered is a brand association. But how are these forged, and how can you ensure your brand associations work to the benefit of your organization?
Now that social media and instant messaging platforms are an entrenched part of everyday life, it’s easy to think the world of digital communications belongs to Mark Zuckerberg and co. However, recent studies in both B2B and B2C markets have proven the continued growth and value of emails, highlighting the need for businesses to continue to maximize efforts in these channels.
As communication becomes increasingly more digital in nature, there's a vital brand touchpoint which requires more consideration: typeface. As a brand asset, type possesses the ability to subtly convey brand values through the choice of letter shape. When Coca Cola followed in the footsteps of AirBnB, Nokia, General Electric, Intel and BMW to launch its own custom corporate typeface, the new typeface was designed to “encapsulate from Coca-Cola’s past and its American modernist heritage.”
You’ve probably heard multiple times that one of the most important things about branding is consistency. Consistency is key – it aids recognizability and makes your brand more powerful. But why does consistency matter so much, and how can it be implemented? And is it really so detrimental when this doesn’t happen?
When you have powerful productivity tools in Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, and Excel at your disposal, navigating them by clicking around with your mouse is the tech equivalent of riding a bicycle when you could be taking the bullet train. You need keyboard shortcuts!

When it comes to the world of rebranding, brand visuals usually steal the show. As they are the most obvious elements of a rebrand, the new logo or headline grabbing ad campaign are often the focus. Look beyond a company’s shiny look and feel however, and you’ll find that rebranding is a process of many costs.
