The brief
Independent specialists in financial services for businesses and individuals, Bartlett Group has various divisions of the company working cohesively together, however the visual identity and tone of voice of one of their departments felt unaligned – that’s when they came to us. The employee benefits sector of the company wanted to utilise the existing brand colours, fonts and logos of the wider brand to refresh some collateral for their specific division. This list included an editable new business proposal deck template, a two-page ‘About Us’ summary document, a thought leadership article, an internal platform review updated with relevant brand imagery and content and a brand video. With the list of elements confirmed, our talented wordsmiths and graphic designers got to work.

Our approach.
To help inform all the material needed by the employee benefits division, we began with the new business proposal desk which utilised some sub-brand colours that would become recognisable for this specific sector. In addition to this, we also explored options of modern and relevant iconography that could be employed across the editable powerpoint, introducing circular shapes that symbolised the unity and full circle functionality of their service. Upon sign off of this style, we then rolled out the colours, fonts and iconography across all their collateral. But first, the copy for the 1,000 word thought leadership article and two-page ‘About Us’ document needed drafting.
After fully familiarising ourselves with everything about the employee benefits department, we established a strong tone of voice, reflective of the brand as a whole, whilst also communicating all the key messaging about the division in the two-page ‘About Us’ summary document. We then turned our attention to researching and drafting an article covering the topic of ‘rethinking employee healthcare in the UK’, all whilst maintaining the tone of voice established in the summary document. This piece of work was then designed as an email (using all visual elements previously utilised), before being built by our web developers into a HTML and sent out to their database.


The results.
Bartlett Group received four finalised and fully branded documents that could be utilised across the employee benefits division of the business. But that’s not all, Bartlett Group will be returning to us as we book their brand video into our diary, with planning meetings and script writing for the production already undertaken.
