WTF are
Brand Guidelines
Brand Guidelines are simple they are the set standards put in place to keep your brand cohesive. Without guidelines in place your brand has a much higher possibility of falling apart platform to platform.
Logo Usage & Brand Elements
This section should outline all the logo marks within a brand and when and how to use them. This will ensure that you are always using the correct logo when marketing your brand.
A successful brand should have branded elements outside of the logo marks to rely on as well. This can be pattern, icons, filters, etc.
Font & Color Usage
The fonts you use throughout your brand should be consistent and offer variety for different types of content. For example a solid font pairing will utilize a Sans Serif, Serif, and some sort of Condensed, Display, or script to compliment the others.
When selecting your colors you should have emotion in mind. How should your viewers feel when they see your brand colors? What emotion are you trying to convey?
Brand Voice
Your voice is the loudest part of your brand. It’s the way you communicate with your audience. How do you want your audience to hear you?
