ZUZUGroup Branding and Design

Our Process

Whether you are a large corporation, a small company or a non-profit organization, building a new brand can seem like an overwhelming endeavor. How do you do it? Where do you begin? Well, for one thing, you've already started. You've realized that a solid brand is a core element for any successful business or organization.

At ZUZUGroup, the process of creating a new brand system for you is itself a system. We've simplified the process by breaking the many steps into 3 main segments:

Discover

Before we can design anything for you, we must first DISCOVER who you are as a company/organization. We do this through an in-depth discovery phase. This happens through a series of interviews, research, questionnaires, and brand exploration sessions. Through it all our goal is to DISCOVER who you are as a company or as an organization. We answer the questions: What are your goals? What is your core message? What is your true personality? This phase isn't just for us as your brand-builders, but it's also for you. DISCOVERING who you are as a company can help guide you. It's reaffirming and guiding all at the same time.

Build

Once we discover who you are, we can begin the creative part of BUILDING your brand. We start this part of the process by unveiling to you our 'BRAND RECOMMENDATIONS'. These recommendations come complete with a brand "look and feel", brand position, logo and tagline. From here we discuss what each brand identity would mean to you and make any necessary adjustments. After you have chosen one of the recommendations, the next step is to finalize the brand choice. We work with you to refine the initial recommended concept into complete brand system that defines your look, image and overall personality. Building is a lot of work. We build you a branding system that includes the logo, fonts, colors and other design elements and copy that you'll need to live with and maintain your new brand.

Maintain

A good brand is good business. Maintaining your brand is better business. In order to be most effective you must apply your new brand message to all areas of communication. All your client touch points. At ZUZUGroup, we help you maintain your brand by first providing you with your Brand System Standards Guide. This comprehensive guideline will assist you as you use your brand. Whether it's as simple as sending your logo to the newspaper, or formatting text for a word document, maintaining a consistent brand message is critical. Keep in mind, ZUZUGroup is ALWAYS available for assistance with campaigns, annual reports, brand extensions and other projects that require professional design experience.
