What is brand identity?

Brand identity is all about the visual expression of a brand. But what does it mean and why should businesses prioritize it?

The brand identity should create a unique impression that distinguishes it from its competitors, while making it easily recognizable to consumers. It's not just about the visual elements such as name, logo, colors, typography, imagery. It's also about tone of voice, values and personality. The sum of this should create trust and loyalty for customers.
