The brand identity process is a proven and disciplined method for creating and implementing an identity. It is a rigorous process demanding a combination of investigation, strategic thinking, design excellence, and project management skills. It requires an extraordinary amount of patience, an obsession for getting it right, and an ability to synthesize vast amounts of information.
Regardless of the nature of the client and the complexity of the engagement, the process remains the same. What changes is the depth with which each phase is conducted, the length of time and the number of resources allocated, and the size of the team, on both the identity firm and client sides.
The process is defined by distinct phases with logical beginning and ending points, which facilitate decision-making at the appropriate intervals. Eliminating steps or reorganizing the process might present an appealing way to cut costs and time, but doing so can pose substantial risks and impede long-term benefits. The process, when done right, can produce remarkable results.
"Navigating through the political process - building trust - building relationships - it's everything."
Process is a competitive advantage.
1. It assures the client that a proven method is being used to achieve business results.
2. It accelerates understanding and acceptance of the investment of necessary time and resources.
3. Engenders trust and confidence in the identity firm.
4. Positions project management as smart, efficient, and cost-effective.
5. Builds credibility and strengthens identity solutions.
6. Sets expectations for the complexity of the process.
