Branding for Broadstairs openings and long-standing family businesses
Broadstairs businesses tend to fall into two groups when it comes to branding. There are newcomers, often people who have moved to the coast to open the café, studio or shop they always wanted, who need an identity from scratch. And there are family businesses that have been part of the town for years, with plenty of goodwill but a look that has quietly dated. Both share the same challenge: standing out on a High Street and seafront where customers have plenty of attractive independents to choose from.
We help both, building brands that feel at home in Broadstairs and work just as well online. We’d like to meet you in person, at your premises or at our Maidstone office, with a video call available if that’s easier. What we cover:
Brand Identity Design
A complete look covering logo, colours, typography and imagery, built to suit your business and customers.
Logo Design
A main logo plus simpler versions for signs, stamps, cups and social media.
Brand Strategy
Clarifying who your customers are, what makes you different and how you want to come across.
Brand Guidelines
A straightforward guide for staff, printers and sign makers.
Rebranding
Refreshing a well-known local business without losing what regulars love about it.
Messaging Direction
A tone of voice and key lines for menus, signs, socials and your website.
Visual Rollout
Bringing the brand to life across signage, print and online, with our Broadstairs graphic design team.
Brand Videos

How our branding process works for Broadstairs clients
Branding begins with understanding you, and that’s easiest face to face. We’ll come to your premises in Broadstairs, or welcome you at our Maidstone office, to talk about your business, your customers and what you’d like to be known for. We look at your competitors, bring a mood board to discuss together and present concepts in person, explaining the thinking behind each one. You’ll have time to discuss them with family or partners before deciding. If someone can’t make a meeting, they can join by video call.
1. Get to know you

Branding in Broadstairs: frequently asked questions
We're opening a new business in Broadstairs. When should we start on branding?
A few months before opening is ideal, so signage, menus, website and social accounts are ready for launch day.
How do we refresh our family business brand without losing regulars?
We'll keep the elements people recognise and update the rest carefully, then help you explain the change to customers.
Can we hold the branding meetings at our premises?
Yes. We're happy to come to Broadstairs for each session, or you can visit our Maidstone office. A video call is an option if it's easier.
Can you help with our shop sign?

What files do we get at the end?
Logo files for print and web, colour and font details, brand guidelines and any templates included in the project.
