Strategic Branding
Strategic Branding is the process of defining and structuring a brand’s essence—its purpose, positioning, identity, and language—before any visual or communicational decisions.
Who is this service for?
For companies, brands, and entrepreneurs who:
Are launching, repositioning, or expanding
Feel a lack of coherence between what they are and what they communicate
Want to align strategy, narrative, and image in a professional way
Wish to build a trustworthy, authoritative brand in their market
What does the Strategic Branding service include?
The process integrates three complementary dimensions:
Brand Strategy: Definition of purpose, values, positioning, and narrative. Creation of the strategic foundation and storytelling that guide all decisions.
Perception and Communication Direction: Definition of tone of voice, verbal identity, discourse, and sensory coherence (language, image, and behavior).
Graphic Design and Identity: Visual translation of strategy: logo, color palette, typography, iconography, templates, and communication materials (business cards, presentations, social media, packaging, etc.). All creative direction is managed internally, ensuring total consistency between method and result.
What are the steps of the process?
Diagnosis and Immersion (1–2 weeks): Strategic session, perception survey, and competitor analysis.
Strategy and Identity (2–3 weeks): Definition of brand pillars, DNA, purpose, values, and narrative.
Design and Visual Implementation (3–4 weeks): Creation and presentation of the visual identity aligned with strategy.
Delivery and Support (1 week): Delivery of Brand Book and guidelines; final session for application and consistency.
(Average duration: 6 to 8 weeks, depending on scope.)
