Helping companies solve their branding and marketing problems
















The daily grind
How many times have you heard that you need to start working on your business to grow? But when you’re always stuck in the day-to-day operations, that’s easier said than done.
Successful entrepreneurs are the ones who have been able to transition from from working in their business to working on their business. But how do you go about crossing this bridge?

Small business owners are rarely short of ideas, but almost always short on resources – both human and financial. Creating clarity of goals is a key success factor in balancing constraints and successfully growing a business.
In two words: brand strategy.
Creating a brand strategy is like having a blueprint before you build a house. It starts with a solid foundation in which all of your branding and marketing efforts are built upon.
By getting clear on strategy, you’re able to identify high-leverage activities to achieve business outcomes — going from “we’re all over the place” to “we know exactly what we need to do”

Creating clarity
Enter Lumin Studio. Armed with years of working with companies across all industries and sectors, we work with business owners to identify the branding issues facing their company and help set up effective strategies to create a path to a sustainable long-term business.
We do this by getting clarity and alignment on the 3 pillars of your company. That is understanding ‘who’ your brand is and ‘who’ your customer is. Everything else we create is dropping a drawbridge to connect the two.
How we will work with you
We’ve developed a framework that breaks down complex matters into very simple steps and processes.

Frequently asked questions
TL;DR?
Brand strategy = clarity.
If you get the strategy right, then everything else that follows (logo, website, marketing, etc) will all be aligned.
How much will it cost?
A one-time investment of $4,000 + GST.
Is it worth it?
The notion of leaning in and committing to growth, means the strategy, a $4,000 workshop, is not for everyone. It’s for entrepreneurs who want to create change and lead.
What if I don’t have that much budget?
The reality is that some stages of companies can’t justify the budget for a strategy workshop.
If this is the case, simplify the demands for your project. Rather than developing a brand strategy, you might simply refine your positioning to engage the market. Or rather than creating a strategically directed brand identity, you might look at redesigning your logo and brand colours to appear more professional and appeal to your target audience at a surface level.
This approach is unlikely to assist you in taking significant steps to develop a brand to drive your business. But if done correctly, it may help you get to the next stage where you may well be able to justify the branding project spend.

Agency x can do it for much cheaper.
It may seem cheaper, but at what cost?
Over the years, we’ve spoken to many clients who have been convinced by agencies hungry for work that there is a cheaper way to do things, only to realise at the end of the process that the work is unable to achieve the business’s goals.
These clients find themselves in an even worse position, having spent a large chunk of the budget they have, with three months of time-frame gone and being no closer to the endpoint they need to get to.
Why should I work with you?
Freelancers offer low-cost design ‘solutions’ and fast turnarounds, but tend to focus on the design execution and forget about asking the important key questions.
A larger agency may suit your branding needs. Equipped with more resources and talent, they’re invaluable for in-depth projects that require a range of skillsets. However, that usually comes a higher cost to cover the agency’s overheads and longer waiting time compared to a freelancer. Global companies that can’t afford to get their branding wrong are prone to have larger budgets and engage bigger agencies. If that’s not your company though, there is another option.
That’s where we come in — big enough to specialise, small enough to care.
Our holistic approach means we focus on big picture, whilst working closely with you on time, on budget, and on value.
Can we still work with you if we're not Melbourne based?
Yes! The workshop will be conducted through Zoom meetings. We’re good to go as long as you have Internet and a laptop.
Can you guarantee success from doing brand strategy?
Nothing can absolutely prevent your company from failing, but having a plan can help reduce your risks. Brands with a plan have better chances of success than those that skipped the brand strategy process.
Why should I take the time to do this?
Let us save you time by building your strategy for you, so you can keep doing what you do best – running your business.
When should I start thinking about my brand strategy?
It’s never too early or too late to plan, set goals and do things better.
What happens after brand strategy?
Once the strategy is in motion, it’s important to continually test, evaluate and revise.
Identify what’s working, what to do more of, what to quit doing and be willing to adapt to change.
What deliverables can we work on after strategy?
This depends on which branding/marketing efforts make the most sense to pursue combined with your budget to roll out your brand to market.
The natural progression is brand identity, website, followed by ways to boost digital presence.
