In hard times, a strong brand is probably one of the most precious assets for any business. For Sublimio, creating strong brands is a mission.

Times are tough, we don’t probably need to convince anyone of that. Times are especially tough for businesses, that have to deal with financial pressures, new competitors, tech shifts, and global uncertainty.

At Sublimio, we believe strong brands are needed now more than ever.

What is a strong brand? Simply put, it’s a brand that has been built on solid strategic foundations. This means asking the hard questions, facing the biggest challenges head-on and ensuring that every choice you make has a meaning.

Sometimes, this takes some tough talk. As a boutique agency, we need to be very upfront with our clients, even about their business vision: creating a pretty image based on rosy assumptions is far too easy, but it’s not what a business needs. This may have cost us some opportunities, but it has gained us some of our most prized long-term collaborations.

Creating a strong brand can take some tough talk.

“Why all the fuss?” you might think. Shouldn’t you stick to creating a nice identity?

Well, no. For us, the brand is one of your most precious business tools and in the long term, it will become an asset with its own value. 

Creating a unique, fascinating visual and verbal identity is essential for success – we love to do it – but it has to be your second step, not your first. Fascination alone is short-lived and a strong business should be in the market for the long run.

Real people are worried or interested in many things today, but almost none of them are brands, no matter how cute-looking. They will only listen to you if you make sense to them. That’s what a strong brand is, after all: meaning.

If you want to create one together, let’s talk.
