BRAND CLARITY BLUEPRINT

Before you design anything, get clear on who you are.

The Brand Clarity Blueprint is a focused engagement for founders and marketing leaders who know something needs to change, but aren't ready to jump straight into design.

Together, we'll get clear on where you are, what you're trying to accomplish, who you're trying to reach, and what needs to happen next.

You know something needs to change. You’re just not sure what yet.

Process

Before the design, we start with questions.

1

Who are you?

We get clear on who you are today, what makes you different, and how you should be presenting yourself.
2

Where are you trying to go?

We define what you're trying to accomplish and what needs to change to help you get there.
3

Who are you trying to reach?

We identify the people who matter most, what they care about, and what they need from you.
4

Why should they care?

We uncover what makes you relevant, valuable, and worth choosing.
5

What do you need to say?

We determine what people need to understand about you and what you should lead with.
6

What should happen next?

We turn what we've learned into a clear direction for what comes next.

Michael Campasano

OWNER + CREATIVE DIRECTOR, ASANO DESIGNS

I’ve spent more than 20 years helping companies turn ideas and strategies into websites, identities, campaigns, packaging, presentations and marketing materials.

And some of the most important work happens before anything gets designed: understanding the problem, asking the right questions and getting clear on what we’re trying to accomplish.

That’s the thinking behind the Brand Clarity Blueprint.

What I've designed
  • Brand Identities
  • Websites
  • Packaging
  • Campaigns
  • Presentations
  • Trade Show Booths
  • Marketing Materials
  • Environmental Graphics

You leave knowing what comes next.

The goal isn’t strategy for the sake of strategy. It’s to give you a clear foundation for making decisions.

POSITIONING

A clearer way to articulate who you are and why you matter.

DIRECTION

A clear understanding of what should happen next and why.

MESSAGING

What needs to be communicated and what should lead.

AUDIENCE

A clearer understanding of who you’re trying to reach and what matters to them.

What happens next is up to you.

Once you have the Blueprint, it’s yours to put into action in the way that makes the most sense for you.

DO IT YOURSELF

Use the Blueprint internally.

GIVE IT TO YOUR TEAM

Give everyone one clear strategic direction.

HAND IT TO A PARTNER

Your designer, agency, or marketing team has a better foundation to work from.

KEEP WORKING WITH ME

If it makes sense, we can bring the strategy to life together.

From clarity to execution.
