Brand Audit

A detailed review of your existing brand - how it looks, how it speaks, and how it's perceived. We assess strengths, gaps, and risks, providing clear recommendations that help you move forward with confidence. Our audits are ideal if you're unsure where to start, or want an expert second opinion before investing in changes.

Testimonials
Everything’s increased since we commissioned Herron – customer enquiries, how much we export, the productivity of our staff and profit. Our website & marketing materials have never worked harder – and the sales figures prove it.

Our Approach

We believe a successful brand requires a balance of rigorous strategy and creative execution. Our process is structured, transparent and led by senior creatives who understand commercial realities. From initial research to final launch, here is how we ensure your brand delivers measurable results:

Discovery

We start by understanding your business, challenge and opportunity through workshops, interviews, research, analytics and analysis.

The point is to uncover the detail that should shape the work, rather than decorating assumptions after the fact.

Exploration

We look outward as well as inward, studying the competitive landscape, market movements and the wider signals surrounding your offer.

This gives us room to spot opportunities and angles that can give your brand a stronger vantage point.

Strategy

Once the intelligence is clear, we turn it into a strategic pathway that can actually guide decisions.

That means defining a plan conscious of all the moving parts involved in elevating your brand in the minds of your audience.

Creativity

From there, we develop creative solutions with bite: sharper messaging, stronger identity systems, more compelling campaigns and more engaging digital experiences.

The aim is not just expression, but carving out a distinct territory your brand can genuinely own.

Activation

We then launch the work into the market through considered implementation across print, social, digital and wherever else it needs to live.

The goal is simple: make sure the message not only lands, but actually resonates.

Evaluation

Finally, we keep a close eye on performance through analytics, reporting and ongoing assessment.

That lets us refine the brand’s expression over time and keep improving how it connects with the people it needs to reach.

Frequently Asked Questions

Absolutely. Our workshops are designed to bring key people together to align on goals, define your brand’s core attributes and gather insights that inform strategy and creative. They’re a great first step in any branding or rebranding project.

Brand guidelines provide clear rules for how your brand should look and sound — from logo usage and colour to messaging and tone of voice. They help ensure consistency across all channels and make it easier for your internal teams and partners to stay on-brand.

Yes — we regularly work with clients to refresh or completely reimagine their brands. Whether your business is evolving, merging, or simply needs to modernise, we’ll guide you through a strategic rebrand that builds on your strengths and aligns with where you're headed.

Brand strategy defines what your brand stands for — your positioning, values, audience and story. Visual identity brings that strategy to life through logos, typography, colour, layout and imagery. At Herron, we ensure both are developed in sync to create a brand that’s clear, consistent and effective.

We offer a full suite of brand services including brand strategy, visual identity, tone of voice, brand messaging, brand guidelines, photography, and stakeholder workshops. Whether you’re building a brand from scratch or refreshing an existing one, we can support every stage of the process.
