If it looks like a duck and it walks like a duck . . .
|
hmmmmm,
I'm fairly certain most people can finish this statement without really
thinking about it. But we don't really consider HOW we know how to
finish this sentence. We just know that, "If it looks like a duck
and it walks like a duck then it must be a duck!" Someone might
have said it to us once, maybe twice, but it stuck because it made
total sense.
This is a great illustration of what your marketing and design should achieve. You should strive to ensure your marketing: - is intuitive - makes sense - the graphics should enhance the message and visa versa
Ideally
you want the person looking at your logo or website or brochure, even
your biz cards, to say, "Of course, what else would it be? This makes
perfect sense."
Here are a couple of grade school examples to drive the point home: - It wouldn't be very intuitive for a company named Yellow Duck Graphics to create a logo with pastel pink duck. - Sunny Day Kids Kamp
would surely have more luck attracting clients with bright primary
colors like yellow, red, green and blue vs staid and stodgy colors like
navy, gray and taupe - The HE men of, The Real Man's Iron Gym, would suffer a serious disconnect if the font on the outdoor sign was a frilly pink script.
These examples might seem a little goofy but it's amazing what you get in your mail box these days!
Good
marketing, communications and design are the product of a methodology
and process that answer some fundamental questions to discover
everything from basic demographics to what influences purchase, how
they purchase, when they purchase, etc., etc., etc.
If you're looking for that "Aha!" of a great communications piece you know who to call. ; ) |
