Who is HOAD branding for?

For businesses who’ve outgrown DIY

  • You’re better than your logo.
  • You’re more established than your visuals suggest.
  • You’re tired of explaining what you really do.
    Branding isn’t about looking “nicer.” It’s about looking like the level you’re operating at.

If your brand doesn’t feel like the level you’re operating at anymore  that’s the sign

Heard of the 3-7-27 Rule?

The 3-7-27 rule explains how many times someone needs to see your brand before they meaningfully engage with it: around 3 exposures to recognise it, 7 to remember it, and 27 to build trust and take action.

Not sure if your brand is doing its job? Take a moment to think it through

Questions

Questions About BRANDING

What is branding and why does my business need it?
Branding is your business identity; your name, logo, colours, tone of voice, and the overall impression you leave on people. It’s what someone thinks and feels when they hear your name before you’ve said a word to them. Without it, every piece of marketing you do starts from scratch. With it, every campaign, post, and email builds on something solid.
How long does a branding project take?
A full brand identity project typically takes four to eight weeks from briefing to final delivery, depending on the number of rounds of feedback and how quickly decisions get made on your side. Rushing it tends to produce something you’ll want to change in six months.
What's the difference between a logo and a brand?
A logo is one part of a brand. Think of your brand as your full identity; personality, values, visual system, tone of voice, and the logo as the badge that represents it. A great logo with no brand behind it is just a nice image. A strong brand with a simple logo still works everywhere.
When should a business consider a rebrand?
There are a few common triggers: your visual identity looks dated or no longer reflects where the business is; you’ve evolved significantly since you first launched; you’re entering a new market or targeting a different audience; or your brand is inconsistent, it looks and sounds different depending on where people find you. If you’re embarrassed to hand someone a business card, that’s usually a sign. We wrote more about this here.
