Branding, rebranding, identity, and logo design for Northampton businesses

Here at GWCM, for over 28 years we’ve produced many new logo designs for Northampton-based companies big and small. Top brands evoke trust, they stand out and are loved by customers. A unique logo, tone of voice, and brand identity along with beautifully designed marketing collaterals matter. Do branding well and you will engage both your customers and employees.

Customer research, visual inquiry, and naming

Our brand identity process is delivered in project phases and includes, research and recommendations resulting in both clarity and alignment. To inform, inspire and create a new logo, for a brand and provide a clear strategic, visionary identity our designers, or trained facilitators may use a combination of desk research and qualitative and quantitative research. We may arrange focus groups and interviews to obtain a good understanding of the business, and how customers, employees, and partners interact or are desired to interact with the brand. This process can help with naming too, so if you have an idea but are struggling to come up with a meaningful name for your business, copywriters will jump to the challenge.

Logo trend forecasting and analysis

Developing distinction in a brand logo is important in helping you stand out from the competition. Our designers are on top of it, having built up a solid reputation for our logo development and creative services using their skills, intuition, and deep competitive analysis. They know where to go hunting down the current consumer behaviour data or cultural insights that help to inform their design thinking and unlock opportunities for your business growth aspirations.

Brand straplines, taglines, and brand positioning

If you need an inspiring strapline or tagline that speaks volumes and sums up your product or business offer, we have a talent pool full of creative writers on tap ready to help. They can help define your business in a few words describing what you do, or what you stand for in a simple phrase communicating clearly what you are all about. Positioning for your brand and making sure that in the mind of your target audience you are different, or better than your competitors helps with establishing credibility. Our copywriters and brand experts will produce the narrative that resonates with your customers.

Brand personality, brand values, ethics, and tone of voice

If you need more than just a logo, we can go on to develop a whole brand guide, or corporate identity guidelines. Corporate identity guidelines can be simple usage rules or a more complex volume that details your brand personality, tone of voice, and the stuff that matters to you and what you stand for. Setting the scene for new brands, or revising and updating more established brands for future growth during challenging times helps to re-focus strategic vision.

What our clients say about us

Having just concluded our first creative marketing project with Gavin Willis, we could not be more delighted with the results. The project ran seamlessly from start to finish, our brief was interpreted and followed with precision and creativity, leading to a fantastic outcome. The team at Gavin Willis Creative Marketing were a pleasure to work with through the project.
Thoroughly enjoyed working with the team. Super helpful with our wordpress requirements
Gavin and his Team are a joy to work with, incredibly professional, supportive and delivered our project on time. Would highly recommend!
GWCM has been a crucial partner in maintaining our NHS North East London digital presence. Their attention to detail during the migration process and ongoing support have been exceptional. With their WordPress expertise, our sites are up-to-date and meet public sector accessibility standards, ensuring we meet our organisation’s statutory requirements and help provide engaging information to local people and stakeholders. A reliable and skilled team indeed!
Very easy to deal with, listening and acting upon our requests in a very timely manner and followed up to confirm we were satisfied. Would definitely recommend
A brilliant and creative team that’s always a pleasure to work with.
We've been using the services of GWCM for many years. Fantastic, creative ideas and always a bit of challenge to get the most out what you're looking for - very easy and friendly to work with too. We keep coming back, what else can I say....
We were fed up with working with one-man band "IT Crowd" type web support freelancers, we decided to hire GWCM to handle updates and developments on our £2million per year turnover fast moving ecommerce platform.

It's been transformative! I've not had to buy a kayak to support anyone in times of need. Nobody has broken our toilet seat. They've not been weird to our employees. They just get on and do the job. On schedule. At a great price.

Rather than hiring some bloke from the pub to do your webstuff, sometimes it's OK to hire an agency to do it, even if the "creative marketing" in their makes my skin itch a bit.

Thanks Christian (the point of contact we've got) - you're a gem.
Christian has been great at helping with various Wordpress issues. Really helpful and responsive and the development work is high quality and good value. Really glad we found Gavin Willis!
We have been nothing but impressed with everything Gavin Willis has done for us in support of our flood project. Not only is the design work of an exceptionally high standard, the customer service, the speed that things happen and the friendliness of the team is all excellent. Nina has become one of our team as far as we are concerned. I would recommend them everyday for all branding and website needs.
Awesome and professional service and on-time completed job, highly recommend
Easy to work with and very helpful. I see this as a long term partnership which will work well for my business
Very responsive to requests and a show an excellent understanding of our requirements. Very pleasing that they show the necessary creative talent and grasp concepts early on and do not need hand holding.
We would like to say a huge thank you too Gavin, Siobhan, Christian & the team at Creative Marketing.
Our website now looks very professional, clear, very easy to navigate and most importantly to us, a website that our son Zac would be proud of !
They are happy to guide or leave you to your own ideas ( we were happy with their guidance ) they were extremely patient with us and we will be forever grateful
You will not regret working with the fantastic team at GWCM.
Great Service, good engagement and communication throughout our work together! Company happy to adapt and be flexible to meet our business needs.
I've worked with Nina on a number of projects for different clients with great results. Easy to work with and comes up with creative ideas to fit clients' needs and budgets. Hope to do more work with GW in the future.
The Gavin Willis team are always really helpful and will respond quickly to design briefs and any questions that we have.
They are both knowledgeable and professional and a pleasure to work with.
We needed our public health annual report designed in a digital format in a short space of time, to a high standard. Not only did Gavin Willis say they could do the job, they met the deadline to a very high standard. After the initial contact, Gavin and Nina came to meet us the same day presenting some examples of their work and to gain an understanding of what we required. Throughout the process, Nina, the designer was in regular contact with updates about progress and expected draft deadlines. The communication was excellent and the standard of work was exceptional. We have since asked for hard copies of the report which have also been produced to a very high standard.

After this initial piece of work, we worked closely with Gavin Willis, Nina in particular, to create assets for social media, outdoor advertising, digital screens, bus adverts and varying other channels during the pandemic to create public information. Each time, it was like Nina read my mind and turned my thoughts into reality, she was a pleasure to work with, prompt, a great communicator and with good attention to detail.

The whole team are friendly, professional and trustworthy. I would highly recommend Gavin Willis.
GWCM have provided a professional and friendly service on a number of projects I have led or supported. The content and designs produced has been phenomenal because they are engaged and take the time to understand what we are trying to achieve. Nina Billington provides guidance and advice while delivering a high quality service with amazing levels of flexibility when needed. They go above and beyond for their clients, I couldn't recommend more highly.
Having recently worked with GWCM I found them to be a first-rate creative agency to work with. Their expertise, professionalism and friendly nature is exceptional, whilst delivering distinctive creativity and development skills. I would highly recommend this supplier.
GWCM went above and beyond throughout the whole process. Their knowledge and professionalism were outstanding at every step of the way and contributed hugely to transforming our brief and requirements. I could not recommend them highly enough, a truly exceptional team of highly skilled individuals who show real passion and care in the work they deliver.
Great to work with this company, would recommend, excellent communication.
Had the pleasure of working with the team from Gavin Willis with a rebranding process for LCME. From their initial research and discovery phase through to the recommendations and implementation I found them to be thorough, detailed and highly professional. Highly recommend them!
