    Overview

    ‘Distinctive Brand Assets’ are the identification tools of brand management that enable customers, suppliers and potential employees to quickly recognise and understand the branded organisation, product or service. The effective codification of a brand’s identity is essential for product and service authentication and protection of valuable intellectual property. Distinctive brand assets communicate how an organisation, product or service wishes to be perceived.  A valuable brand identity system can position a brand in its marketplace and promote salience. A successfully codified brand can be measured and valued for effectiveness. Distinctive brand assets can promote memory recall and connect different sub-brands, services and categories to a common origin. The elements of a brand identity can span physical and digital media, be implemented across packaging, point of sale and come alive in advertising.  Learn with practical exercises and world-class examples, how to communicate a brand idea through its identity and build an effective system of sensory assets to support its values. Delegates will consider how each element of the identity contributes to the brands perception including: name, strapline, logo, mascots, colour, typography and aesthetics. This is a creative and inspirational course and covers the subject from creative brief through implementation to brand guardianship.
