Branding Tips: How to Use Typography to Your Advantage
Every second of every day, language is used as a form of branding, expression and communication in personal and professional relationships - at home or in the office. It is well known, however, that the mere fundamentals of language and vocabulary alone cannot convey all of the intended meaning of a conversation. Other tools, such as body language, cadence and volume are used hand-in-hand with verbal communication to indicate feelings, significance and objective. These tools can be translated into written communication as well. Text on a page can be transformed into rich, visual language with accurate and knowledgeable use of typography.
Color Study: Creating Accurate Colors
Colors Colors
RGB. CMYK. PMS. These color-related abbreviations may sound foreign to some, but they are a must-know for any designer. Why? Color obviously plays a crucial role in design. Beyond that, understanding color means better knowing how the color will reproduce on the deliverables.
When creating products for multiple mediums, it is important to have a solid grasp on how the colors will behave. For example, a business may have a website with a main color of R245, G148, B136. When it comes time to print that same color on a business card, CMYK qualities and the possibility of utilizing PMS need to be considered. RGB is brighter due to being backlit; paper naturally absorbs ink, thus diffusing the color; and the type and finish of paper – such as uncoated or glossy – can affect the final product.
This understanding can make the difference between a great result and an undesirable do-over.
Getting to Know the Customer’s… Customer
In business, knowing your customer is an essential component of a successful and profitable relationship. The services you provide and the products you deliver all need to be in tune with the wants, needs, fears and hopes of your customer. At Lime Valley, the entire sales channel must be considered when developing marketing materials. For some clients, the sales channel flows directly to the end consumer. For many others the sales channel may include distributors, dealers, or wholesalers. The importance of understanding this is critical in a marketing/advertising setting.
