OneMethod 2009 Rebranding exercise
Industry Setting -
• Marketing is moving more and more into the digtal/online space
• OneMethod’s marketing focus shifted from technology to more idea/design driven marketing
Challenge -
• Rebrand OneMethod to better reflect the agency’s offering and position in the marketplace
• Better communicate OneMethod’s offering as the name is not overly descriptive
• Alter the color palette to increase production efficiencies
Strategy -
• Update the logo to better reflect the design/marketing focus
• Create a descriptive tagline for the agency that encapsulates what the agency offers
Result -
• Reduced the number of PMS colors from 4 to two (maintaining the orange equity)
• Changed the font, case, and treatment of the wordmark to better reflect the new focus of the agency
• Kept one square from the previous logo to maintain some equity and tocreate a secondary icon (the ‘d’ with the square beside it is symbolicof ‘d squared’ meaning we do two d’s (digital + design)
• Finally the tagline ‘digital + design’ told exactly what OneMethod does and tied it back to the secondary icon
