What is inside

What you'll get.

  1. 01

    Research, discovery and strategy

    Brand equity, positioning, competitor audits and stakeholder input, before a single pixel changes.

  2. 02

    Narrative and visual identity

    A brand world rather than a logo: story, responsive logo system, calibrated colour, type hierarchy and a messaging matrix.

  3. 03

    Implementation and launch

    Staging, a rollout plan across active platforms, production ready assets and a playbook your team can use.

Written by

Josh Richardson, Co-founder, Q Agency

Josh has led brand and growth work for more than 300 Australian businesses, from trades and hospitality to manufacturing and professional services. Most of the rebrands he sees fail do not fail at the design stage, they fail at rollout, which is why the checklist gives that stage as much weight as the logo.

Highly recommend Q Agency. They set up the branding for our small business and managed to execute our vision perfectly. They take the time to really listen to what you are after and have excellent attention to detail. We would be lost without their team.
