To give you a great brand we need a solid understanding of your plans. Through our discovery stage we interview you to understand your vision, customers, competitors, brand difference & goals. We’ll give you a written brief based on this to approve. Your answers will inform everything we do.
Once you agree the brief, we’ll create two or three logo design options and style boards, depending on the package you choose. These will be on-brief and appropriate to your needs. All you need to do is choose the best solution for your business.
We want to you to be completely happy with your brand, so, if needed we take on board your feedback and refine your chosen option prior to sign-off.
We then develop your other assets. We’ll create your business cards, letterhead, email signatures and social media pack to get your business going. We’ll also supply high-res industry-standard files of your logo for you to use in print, online, and anywhere else.
We’ll get started building your website in Webflow, Squarespace or Shopify, depending on what you need it to do. From here you’ll be invited to share any photography or content you’d like to be included in the website. We’ll find images to suit your package too. Your website will be designed to match your brand and appeal to your target audience.
Before you launch, the last step is to supply you with a brand style guide to help keep your brand consistent. This includes details on logo usage, brand colours, images, fonts and more.
We're here to give new businesses the best start possible.
A brand is the ‘gut-feeling’ people have about a company, product, service or organisation. Getting this right from the beginning is worth gold. Remember, it’s not so much what you think of your brand – it’s what your customers and future staff think that counts. Having your logo, tagline, colours and images used in a consistent way across all your brand touch-points (business cards, signs, website etc) sends a strong message to your customers.
Generally the process takes approximately 3–4 weeks from start to finish. However, we can often speed this up – depending on your needs and our studio capacity.
Not really. Most of our clients are New Zealand based, but we have worked with clients in the US, Asia and UK. We primarily work online, as there’s generally no need for face-to-face meetings. We communicate as needed via email, video call and phone. That said, if you want to visit us, you’d be very welcome.
We generally use Squarespace due to its ease of use, and customisation options. For some sites we use Webflow. Our e-commerce sites are built with Shopify, which has incredibly versatile online retail capabilities that suit our clients.
Sure. We know that thinking of a name you can use can be difficult. Then you have to buy the domain and register the trademark. We can help you with this. Having a memorable name will give your business real traction.
Yes. We are just arranging that now. You’ll be able to pay by credit card or Paypal, so call us to find out more.
We're always happy to answer any additional questions. Simply email richard@brandstarter.co.nz or call 0210 311 294
Our sister business Brand Counsel has been helping NZ businesses with their brands since 2002. Most of the businesses we work with are established and looking to step-up, but we’ve recognised that often where people need the most help is when they are starting out. Getting a brand working right for a business is so important and this is where we can make a big difference – by providing you with the creative assets you need to start your business now.
Our years of experience have allowed us to streamline our processes and reduce the time we need to produce professional brands cost-effectively so we can provide a packaged service at an affordable price. This service is for startups only.
