6. MANAGE BRANDING ASSETS

Visual Style:

Color Palette: What feeling do you want to evoke from the viewer of your web page? Is the first thing you should think about. Green and blue may have a calming affect. You should have at least two colors for your logo – one primary and one secondary. Primary color should always be dominant the secondary will compliment the primary color.

Typography: It is the personality on the paper, it is a type of image, it has power, a way of communication, very important. The words should always be readable. If your business is professional then you should stay with the Roman fonts since they are sophisticated. For a fun business you can use a fun font to show you are fun.

Tone of voice: The quality of a person's voice are made of the pitch, characteristics and volume of the voice. The way the words are delivered and the manner are speaking also make up the tone. If your tone is clear, strong and full of exuberance, they may think you're confident but if you speak with haltingly or at a low volume may be considered weak, timid or afraid.

Tagline: “Doing drugs ruins brain cells, Who wants that?”
