rand refers to the way in which a
business emotionally connects
with their customers. It begins
with the good will that is cultivated
through providing excellent customer
service, consistently and reliably. Your
brand is what you offer, overall, and what
makes you irreplaceable to those with
whom you have contact. It is often the
pivotal component upon which consumers
make their decision whether or not to
return. Brand identity, however, is
tangible. It is the part of your brand that
you can see and touch, that which
stimulates the senses and carries your
brand ideals through design. This book
will illustrate my design recommendations
with selected elements and finishes that
will build your brand identity and create a
deeper and more perceptible connection
with the communities you serve.

our brand is who you are. It is what designates your business
from your competition. Sometimes it can be hard for a
potential customer to differentiate one brand from another in a highly
competitive market. This is especially so when no two facilities are
structurally the same, as in the case of Everybody’s Health.
5
onsistency is key. This is where brand identity helps you succeed over the competition.
From the moment they enter one of your locations, a client should have no doubt where
they are. From your colors to the font you use, every detail should be unique to your
brand. As well, the messaging that defines your brand’s promise should be consistent across the board.

Orange combines the
energy of red and the
happiness of yellow. It
increases oxygen supply
to the brain, produces
an invigorating effect,
and stimulates mental
activity.
Green has great healing
power. It is the most
restful color for the human
eye, It symbolizes growth,
harmony, freshness, and
fertility. Green has strong
emotional correspondence
with safety.
Blue is considered
beneficial to the mind and
body. It slows human
metabolism, produces a
calming effect and is
strongly associated with
tranquility and calmness.
Light blue is associated with
health, healing, tranquility,
understanding, and softness
Color sells your story
ased on the Everybody’s Health logo, a warm, vibrant orange takes the lead. The
supporting cast has a cooler attitude as blue and green are introduced to create balance that
says, “Come in, we’re here to help you feel great!”.

hoice in color for your business and
marketing materials matter. Research
has shown that color influences our
emotions in a variety of ways. But, perhaps,
most importantly, it's the first sensory touch point
for a customer or client. "The first point of inter-
action is shaped by the color, and color is the
most memorable sense,"

have fun with your brand identity. Paint can create focal points, designate
treatment areas and break up large empty wall space.

ow cost, big impact.
MDF can be cut into a
circular shape and painted to
create this television wall unit as
an alternative to simply hanging
it on the wall or using precious
floor space with a traditional
floor stand.

our color story should be consistent throughout all channels. Colorful, modern art and
stock photography keep things looking lively and cohesive. Inexpensive, white cabinets,
green rolling computer tables and orange office chairs will all work together to hold your color story
together and continue to deliver your brand of health, wellness and exuberance, while keeping things
looking professional, clean and organized.

“Brand recognition is indispensable on a local level—-
especially in small markets.”

o need to re-invent the wheel; Everybody’s Health already has a great logo and that’s a great place to
start. But it’s only part of the overall package of branding opportunities. Let’s, now, consider the circle.
14
he circle is the primary component of the Everybody’s Health Logo. The
following are illustrations of how materials that feature circles or are of circular
form have been used to carry out this layer of your brand identity. The circle can be seen
nine times at the entrance and in the lobby alone. That means that by the time a client has
checked in and is seated, you have reached their subconscious nine times prior to even being
treated.
Note the circular light fixtures and
logo upon entrance
15
t’s all in the details. Laminate textured with a
metallic circle pattern and grey paint were chosen
to give an old reception desk a new face (above), while
a polka-dot print was chosen to cover the lobby seating
(below). Also note
the circular pattern
within the art print,
the small tables and
potted plants—-all
promoting the
Everybody’s Health
brand.

randing continues in both shape and
color with this unique light diffuser.
Elevation—Dr.’s treatment area
17
omfort is a must. To address harsh fluorescent lighting, a simple, but
inexpensive, custom light diffuser was designed to be placed above the doctor’s
treatment area. Constructed of colored and textured Plexiglas, cut into three graduated
sized disks, the fixture will be suspended by heavy gauge wire from the ceiling grid above.

little privacy
goes a long
way.
Providing a
small amount of privacy
will help clients relax
and get the most of their
Everybody’s Health visit.
19
ustom partitions were designed to create areas of
privacy. The upper portion is frosted Plexiglas, and
meant to obscure the view, but not block the light.. The
bottom portion and frame employ the circular motif laminate and
paint that was applied to the reception desk. By using common
finishes in different ways, branding is fresh and consistent.

hrough consistent branding and cohesive design elements, Everybody’s Health can increase
their visibility and brand recognition within the communities they serve. In time, if branding
is done consistently at each location, the public will soon come to recognize Everybody’s
Health, if only by shape, by color, or in brief
passing. These things will be subtle reminders
in their day to day lives of all the good things
an Everybody’s Health experience has to
offer. And that experience is always in a
clean, cheery environment that is consistent,
comfortable and familiar from one office to
another. Continue to provide your clients
with top notch care and attention and you
will successfully brand Everybody’s Health as
the one and only consistently reliable source
of Chiropractic care and other holistic, health
centered services in the Cincinnati/Dayton
area. You will be among the best;
those who surpassed the
competition by
recognizing the long
term value of investing
in a few simple concepts and turning them to gold.
