What is brand strategy?
Brand strategy is a long-term plan for how you want your audience to see and engage with your brand. It is the process of deciding how you show up and connect with your community and of establishing a plan for building and maintaining that brand identity over time.
How does brand identity design differ from brand strategy?
Brand identity design is the visual and creative expression of a broader brand strategy: it’s establishing how your brand looks. While brand strategy defines what your brand’s values, target audience, and market position are, brand identity design translates those elements into a visual language using elements like logos, color schemes, and typography.
