Examples Of Brand Assets

Amazon Packaging

'

All amazon orders are delivered in a box with their logo and the tape used to seal it has details about Amazon specials.

“Your brand isn’t just your logo. It’s how you interact with the world — from your customers to your employees — and it all stems from the brand.”

— Blair Brady, Forbes Councils Member

So, how do I capitalize From My Brand?

All of these definitions accurately describe the advantages of a powerful and successful brand. But the critical aspect is that a brand today must not only look the part, it must also function as an asset – by definition that means it must be “Something valuable that an entity owns, benefits from, or has use of, in generating income.”

Must Be Tangible — The brand must offer a service or a product. If your brand offers a product, it must be branded with the brand’s logo, colors, or any other identifying characteristics.

Business Model — A successful brand requires an efficient and competitive commercial model in order to get into the market and meet demand.

Unique Branding — Outside the box ideas help differentiate brands from each other in a competitive environment.

Target The Right Audience — Targeting a specific demographic helps narrow down audience and brand must align and directly speak to that group.

Additionally, without branding assets advertising and merchandising opportunities will be much harder to profit from. Having a clear brand mission, imagery, color pallet, and target audience is essential to any business.

Apparel Branding Checklist

Starting an apparel brand may seem easy but there are a lot of legal and practical logistics to take into consideration if you’re looking to do things the right way. In this blog, we’ll take you through the basics of how to launch a legit apparel business with insight into the details that most people miss when they are just starting out. Additionally, we’ll give you examples of what not to do.

Image and Clothing by Never Made

1. Artwork & Designs

Oftentimes people have great ideas for what graphics they want on their clothing but don’t have the proper copyrights to use those images. It’s imperative that any design created for your brand is owned by you and that it is not in the likeness of any other popular brand.

Copyright is a form of legal protection provided to those who create original works. the copyright owner has the exclusive right to reproduce, adapt, distribute, publicly perform and publicly display the work.

Any or all of these rights can be licensed, sold, or donated to another party.

When planning your aesthetic and working with a graphic designer, it is advised that you draft a contract to ensure you have the rights to the graphics and this way, protect yourself from any legal issues that may arise in the future.

Check out - How To Copyright a graphic design

Many make the mistake of changing the colors on artwork and think they can get away with it but it’s not recommended if you’re looking to have a legitimate apparel brand.

Make sure you also trademark your brand name. Here is how!

2. Fonts

Fonts come in all shapes and sizes, if your design requires a cool font that fits the vibe of your apparel line, it is important that purchase licensing for them. We advise you to select 2 or 3 fonts to use throughout your items and so that you have a variety to chose from.

To learn more about licensing check out The Law on Fonts and Typefaces in Design and Marketing: Frequently Asked Questions (about commercial and non-commercial use)

3. Details

Clothing tags are not only an opportunity to print your logo on but they’re required when selling apparel. Many new brands make the mistake of buying t-shirts in bulk that have a generic tag of the manufacturer and don’t bother to add their logo.

However, we’ve found that having your company information printed on the inside of the neck increases brand recognition and adds to the overall value of your brand.

Regulations compliance is another reason why you should have neck tags. These regulations required the fabric content, country of origin, and RN number.

4. Website

Have your website ready to go before you begin promoting your product.

Take the time to build a website with a checkout cart that is linked to your email or a processing system to avoid all the manual work that comes with fulfillment.

A common mistake a lot of new brands make is launching their brand on Instagram or other social media platforms such as Facebook and this could cause issues with fulfillment, as it is important to have a centralized system to manage order information.

Do I need a small business website in 2021?

If fulfillment is too much of a challenge for you, a company like Family Industries which is a local print shop in Los Angeles does fulfillment for many of their clients all around the US.

5. Apparel Photography

They say we eat through our eyes and it’s the same concept when shopping. Having well-lit and consistent product photography not only looks nice but it’s extremely important.

Product photography is just as essential as lifestyle images, but keep the lifestyle images to dress up your website and social media channels; while using your nice and clean product photographs for your catalog view.

Check out Clothing & Apparel: 7 Common Mistakes

Product photography generally refers to photographing a specific item (a piece of clothing) without any other distracting objects. For clothing, we recommend you have a model and you have the images shot with a white or single color background. Additional images should show the material and the seams.

---

Conclusion

Check and double-check that you have copyrights to your artwork and that if you’re using fonts, that you have the correct licensing to use it. Protect yourself from any potential legal issues and provide the correct information about your garment on the tags and don’t forget to add your brand tags.

Make test purchases on your website to make sure your check-out process is smooth and it works to avoid any potential technical issues when you launch.

And always make sure you have high-quality product images, show as much detail as possible for your buyers to feel confident in their purchase.

Additionally, check on your competitors, not only can you get inspiration but you can look for ways to set yourself apart, and come up with your own style that is better, and also offer things your competitors are not already offering.

A Guide To Streetwear Design

Designing artwork for a t-shirt or a hat may seem like a simple task, but when it comes to the technical application of the design; things may get complicated. The road to starting your own streetwear brand does not have to be bumpy! we encourage you to inform yourself before investing time and money, and we will help you by taking you through the different steps to consider when creating and designing your own apparel brand.

In this article, we will walk you through efficient and economical ways to begin a streetwear clothing line as well as the technical part of apparel printing to help you avoid having to re-design your logo or any other artwork you would like to print on t-shirts, hats, or pants.

What Is Streetwear?

Streetwear is a casual fashion style that became popular in the 1990s. It includes comfortable yet trendy clothing such as graphic tees, hoodies, sweatpants, and sneakers. Streetwear brands are inspired by both hip-hop culture and skater style. Followers of the latest trends in streetwear are known as hypebeasts, and many go to great lengths to acquire limited-edition designer hats, hoodies, sneakers, and more.

The first streetwear brands emerged in Southern California in the 1980s, when surfers sold screen printed T-shirts to promote their hand-shaped surfboards. Inspired by the street style of LA skateboarders and surfers as well as hip-hop fashion, small skateboarding shops in NYC started creating their own designs in the 1990s.

In the 2000s, sneaker culture influenced streetwear fashion. Hypebeasts paired their graphic tees with athletic sneakers, and collaborations flourished.

In the 2010s, luxury streetwear was born. As young people and social influencers made streetwear an important part of pop culture, and the fashion industry noticed, from mainstream sportswear brands to high fashion brands, got in on the action.

The Basics

Comfort

As mentioned, streetwear takes inspiration from the hip-hop culture as well as the skater style. When figuring out the fit of your apparel, you will first want to think about whether you’re looking to design loose and comfortable pieces or have more of a tapered look.

Streetwear is generally defined by breaking the rules of proportion by using oversize t-shirts with skinny jeans or dropped-crotch sweatpants, but as the style evolves, it is encouraged to just make cool and interesting apparel regardless of fit.

Ripped pants and distressed jeans are also part of the streetwear style, these details are important to the overall look. Considering what type of fit and style gives you brand identity and consolidates your audience to a specific group, which in turn, will help you narrow down your marketing efforts in the future.

Fabrics & Design

Because t-shirts are one in a million, and cool graphics are being designed and printed daily; good high-quality fabrics will set you apart from the competition and give your brand an edge. If this is something you can afford, we highly recommend going with higher quality cotton.

Cotton fabrics are premium options and ideal for long-lasting apparel. Additionally, the thicker the fabric, the better the graphics will be. The thicker fabric allows for a cleaner and nicer print, whether you’re screen printing the design or opting for a DTG print (direct to garment), a nice cotton blend is what you will need.

The design will depend on what your brand is about. Considering the name and the inspiration behind your brand as well as finding a compelling way to translate your passion for the brand into a cool graphic is key, and that same sentiment should show throughout each article of clothing and each collection thereafter.

We recommend that you stick to one logo and that logo be visible enough on all articles of clothing offered by your brand. The graphic design should be easy to read and recognizable. When designing the graphics, seek inspiration from your life, your surroundings, or the culture within your community. Having a design that directly connects to a certain lifestyle is what makes a streetwear brand successful.

Versatility

When creating your own apparel brand, especially in the streetwear category, you want each piece to be versatile. Versatility means that you can wear that article of clothing with many other pieces to allow the buyer to create their own unique look and keep their originality.

You can achieve versatility by including basic colors such as white, black, or grey. Minimal designs such as your logo embroidered small on the chest or your logo screen printed on the back of a t-shirt.

The Details

Accessories are essential to completing a look. There are simple accessories you can offer, such as hats, beanies, and bandanas to complete a unique outfit.

Screen printing a hat or a bandana is fairly easy and affordable, and are a good way to add accessories to your clothing line. Additionally, embroidering a logo on a hat or a cross-body bag is a good alternative that provides an added touch of customization and quality.

Focusing on the smaller details can make all of the difference in setting your brand apart from others, such as printing on unconventional spots like the sleeves or adding an embroidered element to the design.

Screen Print or Direct To Garment?

There are many differences and similarities between these two methods of printing, and there are a number of criteria to be taken into consideration when making your decision. The following points will help you decide on which print method is better for your brand and more specifically what type of print method is best for your designs such as logo and other artwork you wish to display on the apparel.

1. Quantity: Digital printing allows for a smaller quantity to be printed while screen printing will usually require a minimum.

2. Apparel: Screen printing has more versatility when choosing your fabric. For digital printing, it is advised to print on 100% cotton or other select cotton blends and only certain colors.

3. Design: Photographs or hyper-detailed images with a lot of colors are usually better printed digitally. However, if you have a large number of shirts you would like to print, screen printing may still be an option but it may cost you a little bit more or may require some adapting to make the design work best.

If cost is your main concern, the following criteria will dictate the best print method:

1. Apparel: The type of apparel can range from value to premium options and depends on the style and brand.

2. Print Locations: There is the option for 1 or 2 locations, which would be the front and/or the back (for a t-shirt or sweatshirt).

3. Fabric Color: For screen printing on darker color fabrics, a white layer before your print is necessary and may cost a little bit more.

4. Number of Colors: The more colors your print requires the higher the cost is for screen printing, however, if you have a large quantity, this cost may be a lot lower as you can have access to deeper discounts.

5. Quantity: With screen printing, the number of pieces will dictate the majority of your cost. This is the most important factor that will most likely dictate the right method for you.

Promotional Merch Cultivates Brand Loyalty

Investing in promotional items does not have to feel like a loss. In fact, promotional merch should be considered standard practice, because the consumer market is so saturated with brands selling the same products or services, it’s good to stand out. We’ll take you through some stats and reasons why branded promotional items will generate revenue in the long run.

“The U.S. alone accounts for an estimated $298 billion in ad expenditures annually and was recently named the world’s largest advertising market.”

— Moumita Das

Why Does Promotional Merch Matter?

With so many marketers focusing all of their efforts in digital marketing, tangible promotional products have taken a backseat. Unfortunately, businesses that have chosen to dismiss such products, are missing out.

Infographic by PPAI Research

A 2017 study by the Promotional Products Association International (PPAI) explains everything you need to know about the effectiveness of promotional products. According to the study, most people keep promotional products for an average of eight months. That means your advertisement is sitting in front of someone longer than a simple PPC ad or pop-up on a website.

Promotional products provide brands with a reliable path to reach the target consumer group by positioning their message as it will be best received. In fact, according to PPAI research, promotional products are the most welcomed form of advertising by all generations and considered most effective in providing a rationale to respond. Promotional products not only allow brand messages to effectively reach their intended audience, but they also spread the word to anyone who sees the product displayed, used, or shared.

89 % of consumers have received a promotional product in the past six months; that’s nearly nine in 10 who own a promotional product, nine in 10 who use promotional products, and nine in 10 walking billboards for a brand.

Swag and Brand Representation

Brand ambassadors or brand representatives are also an essential part of driving your promotional product marketing strategy forward. In many instances, your promotional products are being distributed at large events and festivals. For a successful campaign, you will need an energetic team to help promote your brand and give out your branded swag.

Every brand needs a face and voice that will go hand-in-hand with the product. It’s not just about choosing the right product, you must also find the right people to promote your brand, a friendly face with a charismatic demeanor can help build confidence in your brand. A simple pleasant interaction with your brand ambassador will eventually result in brand loyalty.

Know Your Audience

In order for you to grow your brand loyalty, you should understand who your current customers are; but no only WHO they are, but WHAT they are – in terms of their needs, their wants, and what drives them to choose you over a competitor. By focusing your time on collecting this type of audience information, you can easily build a large following that is loyal to you and your business . Once you have a good grip on who your target audience is, you can seal the deal by presenting them with custom promotional products that appeal to their specific lifestyle .

Continued Engagement

Show that you appreciate their business! If your brand sells products or services, a good way to ensure continued engagement and brand loyalty is by providing free gifts after a purchase has been made or after a client connection has been made. These small gestures keep you fresh on their radar and they will associate your brand with a positive feeling.

So, How does a Promotional Item Promote Brand Loyalty?

It is important to create a promotional item that is of high quality because people will associate the premium quality of the gift or promotional item with the quality of your business. This will help a lot in keeping the first-time buyers of your products forever.

Promotional products can drive consumers to your business in a cost-effective way. Giveaways bring instant brand recognition. You can expand the reach of your products or services amongst a larger audience, and these items are also excellent for building a solid customer base and driving customer loyalty.

Limited Run

You can create a buzz around a product that is a limited-run item that would be worth buying. Find an item that would be useful, things that can be used in every-day life or that can be great decor.

Promotional Discounts

Providing a promo discount code to loyal subscribers is also a great way to push your product, especially if it’s during a holiday or a special sales day such as Black Friday or Cyber Monday.

Bundles or BOGO Deals

How Using a Local Print Shop Benefits You

Not all screen printing shops are created equal, and we believe that there are many benefits to using a local business. Those benefits range from community economical growth to environmental impact, and we will take you through some key points and reasons why using a local screen printing shop is not only beneficial to you but your community.

Why you should support local businesses

Community Economic Growth

Local businesses are better at creating higher-paying jobs for your community. When you shop locally, you help create jobs for teachers, firemen, police officers, and many other essential professions. Supporting your local businesses helps improve social benefits and other public programs to help the local community with housing and food insecurities. Besides contributing to the local economy by employment, studies have shown that local businesses donate to community causes at more than twice the rate of chain businesses. For Family Industries, this is especially true and part of their mission as a Los Angeles based print shop.

In the summer of 2020 when California was being affected by wildfires, Family Industries sprung to action and offered an original design to be printed on t-shirts to sell and donate the proceeds to Direct Relief. When you buy local, you can be sure that those companies will make a change to your surroundings and bring positive change to your family, friends, and neighbors.

The Environment

Buying from local businesses conserves energy and resources in the form of less fuel for transportation and less packaging. It’s reported that buying local reduces automobile miles by a total of 25%.

When purchasing from an on-demand print shop, the amount of energy used in terms of production is much higher than a local print shop. Additionally, because these businesses are located all over the US, the amount of packaging used is also much higher, as items need to be oftentimes secured with additional materials such as foam, cardboard, and/or plastic. Furthermore, because products are being shipped all over the country, the amount of fuel used also affects the carbon footprint of those companies.

Personal Connection

You are their friends and neighbors, and locally owned businesses have a vested interest in knowing how to serve you. They’re passionate about what they do. Why not take advantage of it? Additionally, there is pride to take in knowing that you are helping a business in your neighborhood thrive and they are more likely to go the extra mile for you to make sure you are happy with the service and/or product.

Quality

When it comes to finding the right screen printer to uphold your standards and ensure the quality is good, finding a local print shop is your best bet. Why? Well, there are many print-on-demand online businesses but being able to visit a facility and see the operations and quality of the product before making a purchase can make all the difference. This instills confidence that your product is of high quality and that you are being provided with the best possible service. Unlike online print shops, you are able to speak with a real person and make a connection with them, and explain what you would like. Furthermore, the print shop also makes a connection with you and your brand and that pushes them to guarantee good quality work.

Local Screen Printers

With all the online print-on-demand printing services available to you, it may seem like an easy decision but you’re not assured good quality and service. It is reported that smaller businesses are more likely to care more about the quality of their service or product than bigger corporations as they tend to have more disposable income. For smaller local screen printers, their reputation is everything and they take greater pride in their craft. Additionally, local businesses can help boost brand awareness for your business by posting on their social media or their website.

For Family Industries, their primary goal is to bring quality to everything that they do as well as providing fair wages to their employees to guarantee productivity and quality.

Family Industries has also held a few community events to help local businesses during the Covid-19 pandemic by promoting their merch, as well as helping local artists by printing their artwork on t-shirts and selling them.

Bottom line

Shopping in a local business district means less infrastructure, less maintenance, and more money available to beautify the community. Also, spending locally instead of online ensures that your sales taxes are reinvested where they belong: in your community.

Why Promotional Product Work

Promotional products are a powerful marketing tool because they allow a brand to connect with consumers by engaging their senses. Branded items are one of the only forms of advertising that allows consumers to interact with a brand on a physical level, promotional products often create more memorable brand experiences and promote brand recognition.

Family Industries has worked with brands such as Praytell Agency to create a one-of-a-kind promotional items box which included a pair of bombas socks, a thermal mug, stickers, and a scarf. All products and the box itself contained a print of their signature logo.

How to Design The Right Promotional Item

When creating your own promotional items, it is tempting to try to pack as much information as possible, but we suggest you prevent overwhelming the design with too much text. Keep these points in mind when you're designing your promotional products to create memorable gifts.

Less Is More

Keep it simple, use your brand logo and a catchy tagline, website, and if you’re able to fit it in, a phone number or a social media handle.

Use Your Brand Colors

Choose a product with your standard colors to maintain consistency in your style and to improve the chances of brand awareness. If a product option is not available in your colors, select a neutral color that will allow your brand identity to shine through your logo and text, instead.

Usefulness

You will want your product to be useful time and time again. Novelty items such as fidget toys are great to raise a smile or promote a healthy work-life balance, but depending on your audience perhaps more traditional items such as travel mugs, t-shirts or flash drives are the best options. Do your research!

Key Takeaways

Promotional products are essential for your business, over 50% of adults use at least one promotional product regularly, and 85% of that group will eventually do business with the advertised company. Additionally, the cost of a promotional item compared to regular advertising is much lower, and corporate gifts build relationships and brand loyalty.
