Now you need to protect those assets and ensure design consistency across all collateral created for your brand. What&#8217;s the best way to do that?\u00a0Create a brand standards guide that states explicit rules for using brand elements. Ultimately, the guide becomes a roadmap that gives direction for visual branding without hindering creativity. It is especially important to share the guide with anyone &#8211; employees, vendors, advertising agencies, customers &#8211; using brand elements to create collateral and marketing materials.<\/p>\n<p>Our art director, Gary LoBue, Jr., stresses the importance of a style guide, \u201cNot having a standards guide would be like building a home without the blueprints. You\u2019re merely guessing as to how to handle a critically important element\u2019s color, size, spatial orientation or proportion in a variety of settings.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.prejeancreative.com\/pc_blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/pandora.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5265\" src=\"http:\/\/www.prejeancreative.com\/pc_blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/pandora.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"486\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.prejeancreative.com\/pc_blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/pandora.jpg 650w, http:\/\/www.prejeancreative.com\/pc_blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/pandora-300x224.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>Elements of a Brand Standards Manual<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nThe content and length of a style guide vary by organizational needs.
