Approach
We were commissioned to design a new visual identity, house style and website. Additionally ELC were to devise and implement a business development and social media marketing strategy to drive the business forward.
Visual Identity:
After an assessment of the current identity, and researching what was currently trending, it was decided to keep some of the elements of the current logo and focus on giving it a more contemporary look and feel. We experimented with a variety of colour palettes before arriving at the combination that reflected the ethos of the business.
Website Development:
We ensured that the new website:
- conveyed the Hair and Scalp Clinic’s expertise’
- appealed to wide range of customers
- spoke with a voice of authority
- showcased the Clinic’s work through a series of case studies
- presented technical information with clarity
SEO and Social Media Strategy:
A social media marketing strategy was designed to increase brand awareness, engagement and web traffic on a variety of social platforms in particular Facebook and Twitter. The activities conducted included * keyword research, on and off page SEO * content marketing creation * guest blogging * creation of landing pages * Google Analytics
