Our Latest Work
What is digital design?
It encompasses various elements such as graphic design, web design, user interface (UI) design, user experience (UX) design, and many more. In today’s digital age, where everything is becoming increasingly digitalized, digital design plays a crucial role in shaping how we interact with technology and how information is presented to us.
Why is digital design important?
Better Engage With Your Customers
Part of the problem for a lot of businesses is understanding how to better interact with their customers.
Digital design can help you better understand. You’re able to turn a heavy piece of content into a visualisation; an in-depth whitepaper can be compressed into key actionable points for a social media carousel, paid ads, or website infographic.
This will help you to better understand your customer on their needs and help them to better understand your product.
Create Memorable Campaigns
There are new brands popping up all the time – making your market more competitive than ever. This means there’s greater pressure for your campaign to work.
Through digital design we’re able to create memorable content that elevates your brand image for a lifetime and drives hype around your campaign; whether that’s through word-of-mouth promotion or brand mentions online.
And if you’re looking to do this at ease, our digital agency services will allow you to do this all-in-one place for greater delivery and efficiency!
Turn Your Vision Into A Reality
It sounds cliché, but digital design does bring a campaign to life.
Due to digital design being able to involve many different elements, it can show the true value of your products, offer solutions to your audiences’ questions, or highlight attention around a certain focus point – to power brand development.
Like our campaigns, we ensure our designs are relevant, on brand and in-keeping with the tone of the campaign.
Increase Your Online Presence
Creating digital content for PR, social media, or marketing campaigns provides more ways to power online performance by securing earned media.
Earned media such as online coverage, will not only grow your brand’s appeal online but your presence, reputation, and linking profile. Further encouraging consumers and media publications to talk about your digital activity online in a positive manner. Thus, making your brand more trustworthy to Google which in turn, secures better organic rankings, more sessions, and ultimately more conversions.
Support Overall Branding Experience
As with any branding material, it helps to shape the overall feel and look of your brand. And with digital having such a strong presence these days, it can also have a strong impression on your audience.
Research shows colour can boost readers’ attention span and remembrance by 82%. Even small elements such as colour themes catch a user’s eye and make them drawn to your brand, so this is a great opportunity to show and develop the personality of your brand.
77% of consumers choose to interact with brands that represent them – let it be you. Once consumers have had a positive experience with your branding, it has a positive impact on them, forming a deep and more personal connection that drives long-term brand advocacy.
Increase Reach Through Shared Content
Sharing content has never been easier than before, friends are able to share content with each other or even with strangers; whether that’s through a WhatsApp messaging chain or social sharing.
Therefore, this functionality increases your content’s reach by the masses. You’re reaching potentially millions or billions more audiences. The added benefit of this is, you can measure sentiment and gain a better understanding of public perception towards your campaign – are consumers liking your digital content?
Digestible And User-Friendly Content
You only have a short moment to grab the attention of consumers these days; on mobile, half of the users start scrolling within 10 seconds and 90% within 14 seconds.
There’s millions of pieces of content that get shared daily, so yours needs to thumb-stopping and easy to digest in order to compete. Due to the multi-format functionality of digital design, you’re able to be creative with the different content types, whether that’s an illustration, 3D design, animation, or digital billboard.
According to research, people retain 65% of the information when it’s paired with a relevant image. Working to brand guidelines, our digital designers have the ability to visualise your campaign in a succinct and inviting way.
How do we measure campaigns?
