Integrating your brand into Office
Corporate design in Microsoft Office
Uniform branding for your communications
As a marketing employee, you know your brand’s worth, and it’s your mission to convey this consistently across all communication channels. This usually works well for print, TV, and online formats, because every adjustment has to pass by your desk first or is taken care of by your agency. But it’s a different story for presentations, documents, and emails.
The challenges
Establishing commitment to your brand
Providing a few templates, presentations, and sample slides will generally not suffice. Employees often don’t gain access to these quickly enough, or they create their own documents or overwrite old versions. Suddenly, multiple different versions end up in circulation, errors abound, and corporate-design specifications get watered down. Even mandatory components such as signatures and business details lose their consistency when everyone is creating or copying them themselves.
The solution
Integrated Corporate Design
Strategy Compass’ QuickTools store all graphic and content specifications precisely where users need them – right within the Microsoft Office applications. This means everyone has direct access to the latest version of templates, presentations, and pictures.
Our QuickTools are tailored to your company. Our designers will apply your corporate design to PowerPoint, Word, etc., even working with your lead agency if desired. We develop PowerPoint masters and templates and Word templates specially for you, in close consultation with your users, and taking into account specifics, like different positioning for subsidiaries or multi-brand architectures.
