Case study: Brand identity for Heads-up Coaching

Brand identity for Heads-up Coaching

Well considered, bespoke Illustrations can be the magic ingredient to build strong brand recognition.

Background

My client Business Coach Lyndsey Segal from Heads-up Coaching commissioned me to create a distinctive and memorable brand identity for her business coaching business.

The challenge

Each business coaching module, event and blog focuses on different business development topics and therefore required a different story.

My solution

The hand-drawn illustrations have become part of Lyndsey's recognisable brand. They have enabled Lyndsey to showcase her products and services in a visually distinctive way and reach a wider audience.

Heads-up Coaching offers 1:1 coaching: Team training workshops, business coaching and networking events.

The brief

The business coaching sector is very competitive. Lyndsey commissioned me to create a range of illustrations to give her brand a recognisable, distinctive identity to strengthen her business offering.

She wanted to show that Heads-up Coaching are going the extra mile by making their brand personal.

The illustrations needed to have different uses, therefore they needed to be flexible enough to be able to fit into Eventbrite invites, MailChimp newsletter and the website. A quick turn-around was essential.

The approach

I established the main characters to tell the story which featured sequentially throughout the set of illustrations.

Lyndsey likes a vibrant colour palette and a dynamic, vivid approach; these reflect positivity.

A quick sketch showed that I understood the message and only then final artwork was produced. This helped to keep costs down.

The outcome

The illustrations are used in Eventbrite, on the website and for blog posts. They have now become part of Lyndsey's brand identity and are recognisable throughout the different collaterals.

The range of illustrations has enabled Lyndsey to showcase her products and services in a visually distinctive way; they help to reach a wider audience, which has significantly contributed to the success of her business.
