FAQs
-
0.1 What is a branding agency?
A branding agency is there to help your business put its best foot forward with everything from your logo and brand positioning, to your messaging. You want your branding agency to leverage data, to make sure your branding is fully considered and purposeful, but you also want them to be capable of putting together a pioneering brand that will put you at the top of people's minds. Coincidentally, that's exactly what we do here at Cobolt!
-
0.2 What is meant by brand sentiment?
Brand sentiment is simply how people feel about your brand on a positive-to-negative spectrum. Understanding the sentiment towards your brand, and the conversations people have about you online is important if you want to successfully position yourself in the marketplace. It's also important to pick up on high amounts of negative sentiment because this might mean it's time for a brand refresh, a rebrand, or some crisis management - all of which we can help with.

0.3 What's the difference between a brand audit & a brand strategy?
Simply put, a brand audit tells you what you need to do, while a brand strategy tells you how to get there. This is why we recommend having both an audit and strategy done together - having one without the other is like having Tom without Jerry, Wallace without Gromit, Buzz Lightyear without Woody... you get the picture.
Brand audits and strategies make up the crucial first steps to any successful branding project, which is why we always start out with them at Cobolt.

0.4 How long does a branding project take?
We'll be honest - it can vary a lot depending on whether you're looking for a completely new brand or if you want a slightly simpler brand refresh. It also depends on the amount of data available in your industry, whether you have any in-house data, and how many branded assets you need.
So basically, there's no fixed answer. Your branding project could take several weeks or several months, but one thing's for sure - you want to get it right, and that means it shouldn't be rushed!
