Branding & Design

Creating a brand name is surprisingly fraught with challenges. A brand name can be contested, legally challenged and loaded with financial pressure. We’ve developed NameStorm sessions to avoid the obvious pitfalls of creating a new brand name. With legal checking fitted as standard the NameStorm sessions get your product, organisation or services on the road fast and ready for life at the speed of business.

Design communicates. Advertising persuades. We combine the two for competitive creativity that moves from traditional notions of disruption to work that populates culture. We work in any media from print to press to pixel. Our strategic brand model scales across brands to create cohesive communications. We develop national and international campaigns for brands big and small.

We offer an award winning digital service spanning the full spectrum of online media. This includes everything from SEO, PPC and programmatic, to content, social media and email advertising – plus everything in between. We offer a 360 digital consultancy and can both audit your existing media activity and work alongside current partners to deliver improved performance. Our planning techniques focus on delivering innovative digital solutions via carefully researched and selected channels. We have numerous tools such as Jungo, our custom built, in-house trading desk that ensures our planning is granular enough to identify and reach the right audience in the most effective way. With a fully transparent planning and reporting process, we offer clients comprehensive insight into each step of campaign execution, from preliminary research right through to results and analysis.

We have strong strategic, proven opinions around what makes brands work. We think great branding needs to be adaptive. Products, services and organisations change fast, their brands need to flex with them. Consistent branding just results in matching pairs. Neat, but not that useful. Consistency alone is predictable, patronising, repetitive, dull. Our approach creates strategic and coherent conversations between organisations, services & products with their various audiences.

SomeOne pioneered the use of this term in regards to branded operating systems that enable products, organisations and services to connect across multiple channels and touch points. Beyond a logo, typeface and colour. Brands need more to enable them to compete and win in fast moving competitive marketplaces. We create those advantages.

There is a huge amount of nonsense surrounding brand strategy. You won’t find any in our process. A strategy is a plan to get you where you want it to be. We create those plans and equip people and brands with the tools and maps to get to their desired location. Simple. Clear. Effective. (And highly competitive.) We work with brands big & small to create richer, more rewarding BrandWorlds to better connect & communicate with people. Our job is often based on helping our clients compete more effectively with others. Brands only exist where there is competition. Great ideas lie at the heart of great branding. So we start with big ideas, then go about making them beautifully. A variety of bespoke tools are deployed, combined with agile research at SomeOne to uncover smarter and more compelling ways to achieve business goals. Our work is always strategically-led. We employ a variety of rapid, proven processes to get multiple opinions aligned and things moving in a single agreed direction fast.
