Would someone recognise your brand without seeing the logo?

If the answer is “maybe”, it might be time to look at your brand guidelines.

They help keep everything you put out feeling consistent, whether it’s your competition website, social content, ads or emails. They also make life a lot easier when more people start working on your marketing.

And no, brand guidelines aren’t just something big businesses need.

Head over to our website to read more about them. If you need a hand getting your brand into shape, our creative team can help with that too. ⚡️

Not sure if your business needs brand guidelines? Find out how they boost recognition, build trust, and make scaling easier.

More video doesn’t always mean better content. 🎥

For competition businesses, it’s about creating the right kind of video.👇

Winner reveals can build trust, testimonials give you social proof, behind-the-scenes content shows the people behind the brand and Q&As give your audience something useful.

It doesn’t need to be complicated, it just needs to have a point.

We’ve shared more on what competition businesses should be focusing on in our latest blog.

And if video is part of your plans but you need a hand with the creative side, we can help with that too. ⚡️
