small business owners ask: why do i need a brand identity?
There’s a huge amount of competition today, so businesses need to go the extra mile of ensuring they stand out in a crowd. To do this, you should invest in creating a strong brand that will get and keep people’s attention. With the right branding, you have the chance to get some control over how people perceive your business, so you don’t want to overlook this.
5 reasons your business needs a strong brand identity
1. Introduce your company to your audience
2. Create a memorable presence
3. Help your audience know your values
4. Build a loyal customer base
5. Connect with like-minded partners
what is brand identity anyway?
Brand identity is the image and feeling that comes to mind when people think of your company.
For example, what runs through your head when you think of Burt’s Bees, Apple, Costco, or Subway? Likely, you can picture the logo, visualize the colors or packaging, and the overall ‘feel’ of these big brands.
While color, typeface, and other visual elements are building blocks of a brand, your company’s brand identity is much more than these design elements. Your brand includes your company’s values.
Creating a strong brand identity helps communicate who you are and what you have to offer. Curating a thoughtful brand identity allows you to leave a good impression on potential future customers and build trust.
The question is, what sort of impression would you like to make? What makes your company unique? Who is your target audience, and what is important to them? How can you take all those factors into consideration when defining how to brand your small business?
That’s where we come in.

Wondering how much it costs to get a professionally designed logo in Silicon Valley?
It depends on who you ask. But at Gem Tones Studio, we’re committed to offering affordable logo design services — from one small business to another.
We realize it’s important for small businesses to minimize overheads, especially when they’re starting out. Still, we want small businesses in the Bay Area to be able to have the opportunity to have beautiful branding from the start.

How long does it take to have a custom logo designed?
Depending on the particulars of your project, you could have a brand-new logo in a week or two. Typically, it takes our studio a couple of weeks to design a logo for a small business, including revisions. Take a quick peek at the process of designing a logo.
Let us know your vision, and we'll build a custom estimate. Not sure what you're looking for but just need a logo? No worries, just tell us what you can, and we'll go from there.
Once you agree to the estimated price and let us know the look and feel you're going for, we'll put on our thinking cap and start designing.
After we've cooked up a few options we think you'll like, you'll get the chance to check it out, see if we're heading in the right direction, and provide feedback.
Based on your preferences from the first review, we'll finish designing the logo, combining the elements you liked best.
Now is your chance to see how we implemented your feedback. You'll be able to see the progress and let us know what final adjustments you'd like us to make.
At this stage, we'll make any final edits and prepare several versions of the logo.
Your logo is finished...huzzah! We'll send you your logo in various sizes and file formats for digital use and print.
Whether you need to overhaul your printed items (business cards, brochures, packaging, etc.) with your new logo, update your website to fit your new brand, or design some crowd-pleasing swag, we're here for all your graphic design and web design needs. Let's get that logo out there!
