Elysian

CREATED FOR

@thegrowandglowclub

THE BRIEF

Elysian believes that you don’t need to visit a spa to pamper yourself. With their premium bath sheets made from Egyptian cotton, you can turn your own home into an oasis of serenity. Turn everyday moments into extraordinary rituals. The brand also features luxurious bathrobes, plush slippers, and fragrant candles in its collection for a truly indulgent self-pampering experience.

THE PROCESS

Logo

Elysian is a brand about luxury experience. Crafting a logo and mark that would bring these feelings to the front, we used a serif font with generous variation and swashes, giving the wordmark an elegant and contemporary feel.

The letters are kerned wide for serenity and comfort, inviting the viewer to relax.

Logo Mark

The ancient Egyptian kings and queens understood the benefits of self-care and extraordinary rituals. As a nod to their practices, we used the ancient hieroglyphs as inspiration, and to represent the luxurious Egyptian cotton that the brand is known for using in their products.

The Color Palette

To evoke feelings of comfort and calm we chose an earthy color palette of greens, grey, and white. While grey brings feelings of calm and comfort, the greens inspire hope and renewal. White gives a sense of purity, cleanliness, and safety. Overall, these colors support the feelings the brand desires to evoke in its customers.

Brand Assets

The luxury feel is woven into every detail of the Elysian brand. From Social media templates to packaging and their brand catalog, customers get the rich sense that each Elysian product is crafted with comfort and serenity in mind.

Sometimes scrolling through social media reminds m Sometimes scrolling through social media reminds me of the movie Groundhog’s Day. 

Every account is the same content from a different person. Same questions to their followers, same invite you in clip and cut away your some action. 

I get it. It is hard to run a business and create content, but the question you need to answer is

“Does this content fit my brand identity?”

Creating content that aligns with your brand identity helps build consistency, trust, and recognition. It strengthens your brand image and fosters customer loyalty. 

By consistently communicating your brand values and voice through aligned content, you create a unique and memorable experience for your audience, making it easier for them to understand and remember your brand. 

There is no shame in gaining inspiration from other people’s content, but don’t do it at the expense of your brand identity. 

Do you need help connecting your brand identity to your content?  DM me “CONNECT.”

Without a plan, you plan to fail. Strategy is at Without a plan, you plan to fail. 

Strategy is at the heart of every brand and visual identity I create. A strategy based on growth and goals for your business is critical otherwise it is all just aesthetic. 

While aesthetic is important it is not a strong foundation for your business. Aesthetic will only draw in the shallow follower. It will not attract and connect with the loyal customer that will stay around. 

If this is you, let me challenge you to take time to think deeply about your brand. It will give you much greater returns.

As entrepreneurs it is common to begin to think ab As entrepreneurs it is common to begin to think about our businesses as serving us, but our business, products, and services are for others. 

We serve our customers’ needs. So, let’s start communicating how we do that!

This is the shift that is needed in our brand identity. When we look strategically at how the products and services we offer answer those needs, we can develop an authentic identity that will connect.

Using AI in your small business is a smart move. Using AI in your small business is a smart move. 

AI is a helpful business tool to streamline processes, but it misses the mark completely when it comes to creating a strategically aligned personality that supports connection. 

Your brand has more depth than what AI can generate. That depth is what will set you apart in your niche and catch the eye of your ideal customer. 

Your brand values and purpose drive your business. These are the foundational building blocks for a lasting connection, and they need to be a part of your visual strategy. 

When it comes to your brand identity investing the time and money in a real human will pay greater rewards.

Your brand aesthetic will catch the eye of your id Your brand aesthetic will catch the eye of your ideal customer when it is directly linked to your brand identity. 

Your visuals should  communicate your brand’s essence and create a unique visual experience that resonates with your ideal customer.

✏️ who your brand is for

✏️ what you do

✏️ how your product or services meet your customers needs

✏️ how your the one they have been looking for

It is easier to keep a client than to gain a new o It is easier to keep a client than to gain a new one. 

I don’t know who first said this, but it is true. And keeping clients is far cheaper for a small business owner, AND the benefit is they bring you new clients!

So, how do you leverage your brand identity to create connection with clients?

🔎 In your brand research you looked at your ideal client’s needs, wants, buying patterns, values, demographics and more. 

Knowing this helps you craft a message that communicates to them how your product or services meet their needs and share their values. 

🔎 You’ve researched your competitors and found out how your brand is different from theirs. 

Utilize this information to market your products or services to you audience. 

By communicating in a way that resonates with and solves the problem of your ideal client you’re going to build trust and create connections. Best of all, you’re leveraging what you already know!

Let me know if you have a question about leveraging your brand identity to grow and market your business.

A strategic brand identity is the workhorse of you A strategic brand identity is the workhorse of your business. 

It is a worthy investment. If you have been diy-ing this for a while in your business it’s time to rethink it. 

Your brand identity is who you are and what you’re known for to customers. It is how they recognize you and connect with you. 

These are not things you want to leave to chance or in DIY mode for too long. 

Let me help you clarify your brand identity so you can confidently grow and market your business.

Brand sprints and brand in a day sounds amazingly Brand sprints and brand in a day sounds amazingly magical!  But, this trend might not get you the results you’re looking for in your business. 

It is not uncommon to feel like you are stuck in your business. You know and want to grow. You feel like your marketing and customer connection can improve, but you’re not sure just how. 

Many business owners jump to the conclusion that they just need a rebrand. And, the sparkly new thing is to get it done in a day so you can move on. 

That assumption can cause you to put out a premium price without seeing premium return. 

When it comes to growing your brand and evolving your brand identity you want to make sure you’re addressing more than the visual aspects of your brand. 

A rebrand that will match and exceed the return on your investment will include 

✏️ conversations to understand the scope of your business needs

✏️ clarifying the actionable goals for your business and the project to reach those goals

✏️ a thorough brand audit and research

✏️ reestablishing your core values, mission, vision and purpose

These conversations take time. They go beyond changing your aesthetic to getting to the root of the problem and finding the best answer. 

If you’re considering a rebrand give yourself and your business the gift of time!  JTD can help you. DM me LETS TALK today.

Knowing who your ideal client is important as you Knowing who your ideal client is important as you craft your brand identify. 

In a brand strategy workshop with a recent client we looked over her ideal customer avatar. This is one of the documents that I help my clients create as we craft their brand identity. 

During our discussion she asked what type of coffee drink I thought her ideal client would drink and where that client might vacation 😳. She had spent hours contemplating this because an “expert” had put it on a questionnaire. 

There is a lot of what I would call aesthetic that the “experts” put into ideal customer questionnaires. Things like; what type of coffee do they drink, where do they like to vacation, what type of dog would they own? 

While these questions are fun to answer. They can hang us up in the weeds.  These questions distract from the beneficial information that will support future messaging and marketing decisions. 

When thinking of your ideal client it’s important to focus on

✏️ demographics (location, income level)

✏️ psychographics (values, goals, challenges, buying decision factors)

✏️ goals and aspirations 

✏️ pain points/frustrations

✏️ buying habits

These are the things that are going to help you understand how to communicate with them and move towards your marketing and growth goals. 

Do you have questions about understanding your ideal client?  Message me and let’s chat.

Are you clear on your brand identity? During a re Are you clear on your brand identity?

During a recent project I was talking with a client about the products she offers. I pointed out a theme that I saw in everything she created. 

Her response was, “I was hoping someone would get that!”

Hoping your ideal client sees the benefits and unique solution to their problem is not a solid brand strategy. But, focusing on developing your brand identity is!

Focusing on your brand identity will

🔎 help you differentiate your offers from those of your competitors 

🔎 build recognition and trust

Business is far more than the products you sell. Business is far more than the products you sell. 

It is the problem you solve and the connections you make with your customers. 

It is the value you offer and how you bring that into your niche. 

So, your brand has to be more than “just a logo.”

I often find that business owners begin the conversation this way because they are afraid of the investment it requires to go beyond just a logo, both monetarily and  emotionally. 

Going beyond “just a logo” takes work. It requires you, as the business owner to dig deep into the why, how, who, and more. 

It can be scary when you start thinking about focusing on ideal clients rather than general population. It can feel uncertain when you begin to dig into how you’re different from your competitors. 

But the investment is worth it. I mean seriously, it brings a greater return!

And, the best part is you don’t have to do it alone. JTD is here to help you go beyond the logo and develop your full brand identity. 

I dive into the pool with you to discover your

✏️ ideal client’s needs

✏️ how your brand meets those needs

✏️ develop messaging that speaks to their heart

✏️ place your brand in a way to stand out in your niche

Then we build a visual identity that supports it all. Giving you a full brand identity that will lead you towards the goals you have for your business. 

Let’s work together to give you more than just a logo. DM me and I’ll send you the info.

It is such a dream to work with the best clients e It is such a dream to work with the best clients ever!

I had so much fun working on this project. Part of what made it so much fun was getting to know my client and having the opportunity yo understand the brand they have spent so long building. Then, applying some strategic solutions to their website copy. 

Applying strategy to client projects doesn’t have to be boring!  Strategy leads to discovery. Discovery leads to problem solving results, and that is exciting!

Feeling some beach vibes this morning. The mood Feeling some beach vibes this morning. 

The mood boarding process of every project is so much fun. 

It is a time to dream and gather visual information and inspiration that will guide the design process. 

But, creating mood boards isn’t just about dreaming and creating an aesthetic. 

When creating mood boards for my client projects there are some key foundations that always have to be at the forefront. 

To effectively help my clients choose a mood board and direction for the project we have to be clear on 

✏️ the project goals and vision

✏️ the purpose of the project and the mood board’s role in the project 

✏️ how each option will communicate to their audience 

Once the board is approved, we can begin to refine, create, and launch with confidence. 

If your brand needed a beach vibes which board would you choose?  Let me know in the comments.
