Approach & Strategy

Approach & Strategy

You get two type of brands: those that evolve and those that rebel. Glimps rebels. Traditional B2B businesses are known to be serious and flat. They wanted to change that.

Being an early-stage startup, their goals was to outmanoeuvre their competitors through the use of their community. This meant trust and transparency with their audience. The quickest way to NOT connect with your audience is to be a stale, boring traditional B2B business. So, Glimps became a fun, personal, informal brand. Whilst still positioning as a premium option to attract and sell to c-level business owners.

So they needed to appeal B2B, but like B2C.

Objectives and process

Objectives and process
Work included:

→ Brand strategy
→ Creative direction
→ Conceptual ideation

We had multiple conceptual narratives to play off and pursue, some being:

  1. A moment in a process

  2. Clarity in confusion

  3. The value realisation

  4. The perfect moment

  5. Magnified value

  6. Bring the value to the front

After exploring each, visually and conceptually we landed on the idea, "the aha moment". This was the our conceptual foundation going forward into the creative process.

Work included:

→ Stylescape boards
→ Visual identity sprints
→ Logo system
→ Type, Colour and Layout system
→ Art direction
→ Brand Guidelines

Verbal Identity:

Glimps is a brand not afraid to roll up their sleeves and let their top button lose. Light-hearted and witty. However, assuring and confident.

At a higher level, Glimp's fun and fresh tone of voice is a stance against the over traditional, boring B2B competitors. Their tone of voice is the cornerstone of their strategy to position as the first and only product that keeps the buyer front and centre at all times.

Visual Identity:

Their primary typeface screams, 'fun and friendly' from a mile away. Paired with a pure, vibrant orange the Glimps visual identity stands out tall and proud amongst their more stale competitors.

Logo:

Their final mark, a simplified 3D layered block acts as their batman signal. At a glance, a strong, dynamic symbol for buyers to stand behind. On a conceptual level, the mark shows an abbreviated shorthand of the old buying process. The 3D optical illusion highlights the front block coming forward, echoes their strategy to bring value to the front and cut out any unnecessary steps in between.
