More and more medical practices recognize the importance of developing a brand image. I have recently been working with St Louis Surgical Consultants in developing a logo and print collateral pieces as well as a web site. The web site is still in the works put the logo, business cards, letterhead and appointment cards are now complete.

Building a brand image
Last year I was contracted to build a brand image for an online small business radio start up. As a web and graphic designer, these are favorite types of projects and I have been fortunate to enjoy plenty over the last few years. From a designers standpoint the real beauty of a complete brand image project is that you get to start with a completely blank canvas.
Various circumstances meant that the Small Business Radio was unfortunately never launched but I thought I’d share with you today the elements I created.
The starting point was naturally the logo which was then incorporated into a business card.
Then came the look and feel of the web site. It needed to accommodate a custom designed media player and a space for ads.
and lastly a set of banner ads to promote the site before and after it’s launch
It was a really fun project to work on and I was disappointed it never made it to the launch stage. I think it would have been a great resource for all of us small business owners.
