business branding colours… what are you saying when you wear pink
Companies who have a staff uniform are looking to gain maximum brand recognition and brand awareness, and it helps the staff be easily identifiable. Those companies who wear pink uniforms are looking to instil the feeling of being helpful in a caring, nurturing way. This not only instils these positive characteristics in their staff but to project this to their customers too.

business branding colours… meaning of pink

When I started researching for this article, I didn’t realise I would find so many businesses that use pink as their main branding colour.

on fm radio … interview on the importance of brand colour and identity
Yesterday I had the privilege once again being interviewed by Viv Oyolu, the creator and radio presenter of Dream Corner. The first time was back in September last year. Viv picked up the interview where we left off discussing the importance of colour and identity to a business brand. And this time I was joined by Lynne Stainthorpe from Big Idea, a brand specialist which was great as Lynne and I have worked together.
in the news… the pink backlash
Little girls love the colour pink. Mothers either love it or hate it; so much so they will either buy everything for their daughter as long as it’s pink or avoid it like the plague.

colour psychology… the meaning of pink
Pink has been getting quite a bad rap of late. Little girls love it. Mother’s are polarised. Regardless it is colour representing the feminine. One of nurturing, maternal love.
