Setting up your brand kit is as easy as using it. Just head over to Media > Brand Kit and click the button to get started. The first thing to do is name your brand and then you'll see fields to add media to the four aspects of your visual identity:

  • Logo(s) — the symbols people associate with your brand
  • Tagline(s) — phrases that shape your brand's voice
  • Font(s) — typography that reflects your brand identity
  • Color palette(s) — colors that are crucial for brand consistency

Each type of brand asset can contain several variations, so that a single brand kit is enough to cover the various styles and contexts in which your brand is featured. For example, light, dark, color, etc. Pro Unlimited subscribers can create one brand kit, while users with the Business Unlimited subscription can create any number.

Upload media to your brand kit just like you would usually when editing templates. Everything is saved automatically, and you can also manage your uploaded brand assets by clicking the Actions button.

Edit templates with branding at the ready

Once you've set up your brand kit, it will be easily accessible whenever you're editing a template. From the very start of an edit, you will have the option to automatically add the logo, tagline and fonts. This won't affect the colors, which are adjusted inside the editor.

Even if you didn't start out with your branding in place, you'll have the option to use brand kit assets whenever editing a relevant placeholder. For example, when adjusting colors in a template, you will have immediate access to the color palettes from your kit.

3. Choose a brand font that reflects your identity

3. Choose a brand font that reflects your identity

Choosing the right brand font is essential for establishing a cohesive and recognizable visual identity. Like colors this is a deeply intricate process that crosses into psychology and perception. One thing is for sure, it's best you avoid overly elaborate or decorative fonts to ensure legibility.

4. Find the words that best represent you

Like a superhero or your favorite food chain, your tagline gives people the words they'll use when thinking about your brand. There's no hard and fast rule what will work, and you'll know best from knowing your audience or customers. You'll know as soon as you hear it, so always say it out loud.
