What We Do

How to Elevate Your Brand Identity

Your brand is the complete visual and verbal language that makes customers recognize, remember, and choose your business. YB Marketing builds brand identities that work across every touchpoint — from your logo to your website to your signage.

Boise's explosive growth has created a branding paradox: a dramatically larger potential customer base, but also a dramatically more crowded market. New businesses are launching constantly, national brands are pouring into the Treasure Valley, and sophisticated consumers who've relocated from coastal cities bring high brand expectations. For Boise businesses, this makes professional branding more important than ever — but it also creates an opportunity. Businesses with authentic, well-executed local brand identities stand out sharply against the sea of generic new entrants and national chains. YB Marketing helps Boise businesses build the kind of brand that commands recognition and loyalty in this fast-changing market.

Let's map your brand strategy
Brand storytelling illustration

We believe that great design starts with understanding your story. Our team takes the time to discuss with you — and even your clients — the unique journey, values, and differentiators that set your business apart.

By uncovering what makes your brand truly special, we ensure your design system authentically reflects your company's identity and resonates with your audience.

Start with your story

Our design systems include your brand story, typography, color, iconography, UI components, photography direction, and layout standards — all tailored to your unique business needs.

By centralizing your visual and digital assets, we empower your team to create cohesive marketing materials, websites, and applications without guesswork or inconsistencies.

Build your design system

Your logo is the most visible manifestation of your company within a target audience — which is why consistent, cohesive, and congruent use is so important.

Guidelines ensure that with each and every use of the logo, you are building upon your brand. Like a fingerprint, it should never be altered in ways that change your brand's identity or the perception you want your audience to hold.

Create your logo guide

Graphic standards provide a sound, flexible structure for using logos, color, typography, and other brand language. Consistent brand application is essential — logos and brand elements must appear the same in every instance.

They must use proper color selections, proportions, contexts, tone, style, and voice. The standards are often more important than the logo itself — because brands that aren't consistent can seem messy, untrustworthy, and unlikeable.

Set your graphic standards

Print creates visual consistency, conveying a brand's personality and building trust and credibility outside the digital platform. Business cards, brochures, promos, and more can use unique finishes, textures, die cuts, and color that jumps off the page.

Print engages senses that digital content cannot simulate — making it the perfect complement to digital for a holistic branding and marketing campaign.

Elevate your print materials

Great packaging creates an immediate point-of-purchase emotional connection in today's fast-paced, fiercely competitive marketplace. Color, shape, and materials play a critical role in brand recognition and differentiation.

Most products are known by the design of their packaging — like a hen's egg, a work of art, a masterpiece of design and simply brilliant packaging.

Design packaging that stands out

Signs represent a brand's most visible form of communication. Outdoor and indoor signage along with window graphics can impact how a brick-and-mortar location is perceived in the non-digital world.

Customers make assumptions about a business according to the quality and attractiveness of their signs — and that assumption carries over to how they perceive the quality of your products or services. All signs point to success.

Make every sign count

Environmental Graphic Design (EGD) revolves around the strategic placement and design of visual elements to communicate information, evoke emotions, and guide behavior within interior and exterior spaces.

EGD creates visually compelling, functional experiences using color, imagery, typography, sound, and integrated three-dimensional elements — a fascinating intersection of graphic design, architecture, lighting, and landscape.

Shape your environment

Good web design is essential to user interface and user experience — leading to longer site visits and improved engagement. Your website has become the primary platform for initial brand contact, so it must communicate your image consistently and cohesively.

We extend your brand's family look and feel online so you continue to be seen as viable, credible, and trusted. This is where code meets creative thinking.
