The way we see it, how you talk about your company’s assets are as much a part of your brand as its logo, tagline and colors. It’s why we spend the time thinking it all out and coming up with clear and easy-to-remember naming devices for your whole brand that can be used consistently and correctly by your entire company.
Things to consider:
Seriously, do you know the names of your brand colors? Things like "the blue one” or “greenish” are a good point of reference, but something more definitive is better all around.
Could your elements’ names bring about any negative associations? If so, change them before they become a thing everybody hates.
Don’t forget to define your company’s processes. If someone schedules a CR, does that mean Creative Review or Client Review? Capital Reinvestment or Crisis Ruling? C-Suite Retreat or Carl’s Retirement? Don’t want to mess that one up.
And finally, as you think about your brand elements, if any of it is feeling unclear, it’s a good time to take a step back, re-evaluate your brand guide and consider an update. Not only is it an opportunity to make necessary changes to things like asset names, you can use it to finally get everyone to speak your brand’s language.
