Manage episode 448321635 series 2877203
In this episode of the Business Builders Podcast, Brenton Gowland and Ron Tomlian wrap up their communication series by spotlighting the silent yet powerful language of visual branding. Imagine walking down a supermarket aisle, scanning for the perfect snack, only to be drawn to a particular package—not because of words, but because of color, design, and imagery. This split-second attraction exemplifies how brands communicate before a single word is spoken. Brenton and Ron unpack the science and strategy behind visual cues, showing how thoughtful choices in color, imagery, and typography can set a brand apart and instantly convey its essence.
Key Highlights:
1.The Story of Color: Brenton shares his own temptation in the chocolate aisle, captivated by Cadbury’s iconic purple—a color so intrinsic to the brand that it’s legally protected. This story highlights the power of color in brand recognition and loyalty.
2.Brand Examples:
•Apple – Minimalism and creativity at its core, designed to let the user take center stage.
•Microsoft – Professionalism and efficiency, communicated through its distinct “business blue.”
•Tiffany & Co. – Sophistication embodied in “Tiffany Blue,” synonymous with timeless luxury.
•Nike – A masterclass in empowerment with its iconic “swoosh,” a symbol of achievement and motivation.
•Disney – Evoking wonder and magic, bringing childhood dreams to life.
3.The Framework for Visual Strategy:
•Define Your Visual Message: Understand what emotions or associations your brand should evoke.
•Audit and Adjust: Examine current visuals, assess their alignment with brand goals, and make intentional adjustments.
•Test & Gather Feedback: Seek out honest reactions from unbiased sources to ensure your visuals hit the mark.
•Iterate Consistently: As brands evolve, so should their visual expressions. The ongoing refinement ensures continued relevance.
4.Consistency in Branding: Ron emphasizes that consistency builds trust. Whether it’s a logo, color scheme, or typography, using these elements reliably across all platforms tells customers they can count on you.
5.Challenge for Listeners: Brenton and Ron encourage listeners to choose one visual element—logo, color, or imagery—and assess if it truly reflects their brand’s values and vision. A small tweak can align visual branding with business intentions, giving customers an authentic experience of the brand’s promise.
With vivid stories and actionable steps, this episode provides a roadmap for business owners to harness the hidden language of visuals, ensuring that every color, font, and image conveys their brand’s true message—without uttering a word.
