Brand Naming & Identity Design by Percept Branding Australia
Discovery
Initially contracting Percept – Branding Australia for a brand naming project with potential brand refresh, Acceler Advisory (previously iTrustTax) undertook the full branding process.
In close collaboration with the business owner, Percept conducted a comprehensive audit of their current branding, revealing the need for a more extensive transformation beyond a mere name alteration or brand refresh.
Given the aim to reshape the perceptions of their branding in Australia, and therefore enhance the business’s value proposition, Percept embarked on the brand positioning journey together with the client. This endeavour expanded into the creation of a comprehensive brand identity design and subsequent rollout, encompassing diverse elements like a website, company profile, brand collateral, signage, and corporate stationery.
Brand Strategy
Throughout the strategic branding journey, a core pillar emerged: targeting a wealthier demographic across a broader region. This shift involved shedding iTrustTax and concentrating on educating existing clients while attracting similar new business.
This momentum ignited the client’s search for a fresh home for their brand. A contemporary open-plan space in Sydney’s Parramatta CBD became the beacon for progress.
Effective communication proved pivotal as Percept Branding Australia devised a strategic branding process defined by alliteration: Proactive, Persistence, Partnerships. This succinctly captured the brand’s essence and guide for advancement. This orchestrated evolution fused a refined audience approach, redefined locale, and a strategic branding and communication framework, all collectively illuminated a path toward a more promising future.
