Branding is more than just a logo—it’s how customers recognize, trust, and connect with your business. But many companies struggle when they take their brand online. Colors that work in print may look off on screens, fonts may be hard to read, and logos may not scale well for mobile and social media.
This is why digital-first branding is so important. Before setting up any marketing system, we first check if the brand is ready for the digital world.
Step 1: Evaluating the Brand – Can It Be Digitized?
Before we integrate branding into websites, social media, or marketing systems, we start by asking:
✅ Are the colors, fonts, and logos optimized for digital use?
✅ Does the branding work across different devices—mobile, desktop, and social media?
✅ Is there a clear brand guide to ensure consistency?
If a brand is already well-structured, we refine it for digital platforms. If it’s outdated or inconsistent, we rebuild it to fit modern digital needs.
Step 2: Fixing Inconsistent Branding – The Alshamil Example
When we started working with Alshamil, the brand was not digital-friendly:
❌ Fonts didn’t work well on screens—some were unreadable.
❌ No guidelines for how the brand should look on websites or social media.
❌ Inconsistent use of colors across different materials.
To fix this, we:
✔ Researched the target audience to see what would appeal to them.
✔ Simplified the branding for a cleaner, more modern look.
✔ Used Figma to redesign key brand elements with a focus on digital use.
Now, Alshamil’s branding is consistent, modern, and scalable—ready for websites, ads, and social media.
Step 3: Digitizing a Brand – What’s Involved?
If a business already has a strong brand, we digitize it by:
🔹 Refining colors to be web-friendly.
🔹 Selecting digital-friendly fonts for better readability.
🔹 Ensuring logos scale properly for mobile and social media.
But if the brand is outdated or weak, we go deeper—building a new identity from scratch. This can be a complex project that is billed separately because it requires:
• Brand strategy development.
• Logo redesign & typography selection.
• Comprehensive brand guidelines.
Once the brand is fully optimized, it becomes the foundation for all marketing efforts.
Step 4: Why a Digital-First Brand is Essential for Marketing
A strong, digitally-optimized brand helps businesses:
✔ Ensure consistency across all marketing channels.
✔ Improve recognition & trust with customers.
✔ Enhance engagement on websites & social media.
Without a proper digital-friendly brand, even the best marketing systems won’t be as effective.
How We Help Businesses Digitize Their Brand
We analyze your existing brand and identify what needs to be fixed.
🔹 If small adjustments are needed – We refine colors, fonts, and logo usage.
🔹 If major changes are required – We create a new brand identity designed for digital platforms.
🔹 We use Figma and other tools to develop a structured, scalable brand identity.
By the end of the process, you’ll have a clear, modern, and digital-ready brand that looks great everywhere—on websites, mobile, and social media.
