IT ALL STARTED WHEN MARKETING MET GRAPHIC DESIGN

It could be argued that nowadays marketing and graphic design are like bread and butter, they just work so well together. Why is that? Well, brands need to communicate with the consumer and connect with them. Thus, they make use of graphic design to convey meaningful information and their brand message to their target clients in an appealing manner.

A graphical image is highly likely to spark interest and remain in the brain for a longer time than a text, which makes brand retention and top of mind consideration easier to obtain. The reason behind this effect is that graphic design makes the product offering more appealing to the consumer and can even lead to more conversions.

A well thought-out and creative marketing design has the potential of enticing people to take action, which ultimately provides a direct path to conversion and incite emotions that inspire them to add to cart and complete the purchase.

DARWIN'S THEORY OF ... BRAND EVOLUTION?

Just as graphic design, society and trends change and evolve so do brands and their identities. The reason behind the constant changes among brands is that since people are changing, the only way for them to stay relevant and profitable is to adapt and adjust to these changes. Through adapting and adjusting brands manage to stay young and modern and is perceived by consumers as cutting-edge, which helps maintain brand love and favorability.
