Audio Branding: What are your options?

Kathryn looks at the different types of audio branding.

With 97% of multinational brand managers believing that music can strengthen a brand [1], choosing to boost your company’s identity with audio branding is easy. The hardest part is deciding what course of action is best for you.

 

Let’s take a look at the options:

  1. Sonic Logo

    A sonic logo is the audio equivalent of visual branding, but instead of shapes and colours, it expresses your brand’s identity through a short sequence of notes. It’s a catchy earworm that wiggles its way into the mind of the consumer and triggers instant brand recall. This brief audio sting is a sure-fire way of leaving a lasting impression upon all who hear it.

  2. Bespoke Music

    An exclusive track that connects to your brand, and ultimately, your brand to the consumer. Starting from a clean slate means your brand can grow its own identity without bias associated with well-known tracks, and since the track is unique to your brand, consumers know exactly who it is.

  3. Well-Known Music

    For instant impact, a well-known track is the way to go. Using a famous and beloved piece of music allows brands to make a bold statement with the perfect message. With a connection to the consumer already formed, the established song has the ability to mould brand perceptions quickly.  


So yes, the hardest part is definitely deciding which option is best - but that’s why we’re here. We can help you choose the right path for your brand, and make sure the journey is as easy and successful as possible.
