For more than 20 years, sl design® Brand Agency Munich has been helping clients increase the success of their brands through strategic brand consulting and brand management. We support companies long-term in the areas of brand analysis, brand strategy, positioning, brand implementation, and brand controlling. Benefit from extensive expertise and years of experience in successful B2B, service, and B2C branding projects.
In close and collaborative cooperation with our clients, we develop strategies that make brands sustainable and future-proof. Our work is based on long-standing experience in strategic positioning and target-group-oriented communication that delivers impactful results.
Brand consulting and positioning — from startups to long-established companies — is about clearly defining and effectively communicating a brand’s identity and values. Startups need strong positioning from the beginning to stand out from competitors and gain customer trust. Established companies often need to adapt their brand identity to changing markets and customer needs.
Our brand consulting helps you identify the right target audience, communicate the right message, and build a consistent brand presence through analysis, market research, strategy development, and creative execution.
The “Golden Circle” by Simon Sinek describes the communication concept adopted by successful brands. It explains why a brand does what it does and how it does it. Most companies know what they do — but not necessarily how or why they do it. In this model, the “Why?” becomes the central starting point, because emotionally inspiring brands begin their story with an inner motivation.
With statistics and analyses, we create the necessary transparency for relevant brand decisions. This enables us to support you in making value-creating decisions for your brand.
Only when you understand what defines a brand can you establish a clear brand and communication strategy. This is an essential step — because not only we will ask about the core values of your brand, but consumers will as well. Often unconsciously, but every single day when deciding for or against your brand.
Brands are everyday guides. They shape opinions, influence perceptions, and steer consumer behavior. In successful brands, consumers recognize the characteristics and values they associate with themselves. Unique and distinctive brand identities and clear brand profiles are the foundation of every successful brand communication.
We give your brand the “profile” it needs for a clear and sustainable perception in the market.
We develop clear brand parameters and define precise market goals — enabling us to increase your brand value sustainably and globally. Through targeted strategies and the identification of core performance values, we help your brand clearly differentiate itself from the competition.
We develop the right brand identity for you — one that makes your brand unique and instantly recognizable. Through a distinctive BRANDFRAMING© approach with clearly defined reward signals for your relevant target audience, combined with a consistent design language across corporate, product, and packaging design, we create a unique personality for your brand, products, and services.
