We define what brand to build before we design it

Brand strategy and positioning define the place your brand wants to occupy, in relation to whom, and with what promise. At TWG, we start with research to identify opportunities and arrive at a sustainable positioning.

The result forms the strategic foundation of the project. It guides everything that follows, from identity and naming to content and communication. Thus, every decision has a reason and a purpose.

We understand the business, the context, and the people before we design.

This is how we work on the brand strategy, in four stages.

We learn about the business, the objectives, and what the brand already has, through meetings with the team.

We analyze the context, industry, competition, and audiences using secondary sources, such as industry studies, public data, trends, and the digital presence of each player.

We build the brand territory, the value proposition, the positioning, and the narrative.

We deliver the strategic platform, which guides the brand's identity, content, and communication.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between brand strategy and visual identity?

The strategy defines what the brand wants to say and to whom. The visual identity expresses this through the logo, colors, and typography. Strategy comes first because it gives meaning to the design.

Why research before designing?

Because it allows you to make data-driven decisions about the market and people, and provides a foundation for every design decision. Research helps build a brand that your audience chooses.

Do you do fieldwork, with interviews or surveys?

In our brand strategy, we work with secondary sources, which keeps the project agile and accessible. If fieldwork is needed, such as interviews, surveys, or focus groups, we add it as a separate study by TWG Consultancy.

Can I hire just the strategy stage?

Yes. Then you can move forward with the identity, with us or with your own team.

What do I receive upon completion?

A strategic platform with the brand's positioning, value proposition, narrative, and communication guidelines.
