Why Your Company Needs Unique Graphics, and How We Can Help
Have you ever been so intrigued by the graphics you’ve seen in an advertisement while scrolling on Instagram that you end up checking out their entire page? Or have you ever clicked on a YouTube video and ended up purchasing a product advertised in it just because the thumbnail graphics caught your eye?
Behold: The importance of unique graphics for your business!
Here are a few reasons why your company needs appealing and unique graphics.
Attracting Customers
With the shift to digital, your graphics are often times the first impression to your business.
If your company is using graphics that don’t look professional or that aren’t eye catching, it is going to be difficult to attract new customers. With such a loud and busy digital world, the goal is to “stop the scroll.” Meaning, your graphics need to quite literally stop a person in their scrolling tracks. This includes social media graphics, imagery that you use for your profile picture, advertisements, printed design, web design, and everything in between.
Every thing you share should tell a story, and you want that story to be professional and unique in order to drive traffic to your accounts and ultimately to your business.
Brand Recognition
Graphic designers are great at creating a theme for your company’s graphics. At Pathfinder we even create a style and brand guide for your business. Your brand identity includes color schemes, certain shapes or designs, font families, and the overall look and “vibe” of your graphics. Consistency is important in this area because it helps your audience immediately recognize your posts. Your theme becomes your “thing” and customers begin to look forward to your posts.
Brand recognition is super important when it comes to marketing, and good-looking, professional graphics are vital to reach this level. The quality of your graphics will ultimately determine if your customers recognize your posts and “stop the scroll.”
Increased Profits
A graphic designers’ goal is to create amazing and unique graphics for your company that will catch the eye of new customers and help drive traffic into your business. Increased traffic will ultimately result in increased sales and profits for your company. Spending money and time working with a graphic designer is an important investment that will help your business reach the next level that will pay off in the grand scheme of things.
Brand Message
Graphics can also help your company convey its message. Graphic designers may ask you questions about your company’s vision, purpose, and values in order to tie those into logos and graphics that are created for your business. Colors, shapes, and designs can be used to tell your company’s story, or allow the customers to understand what products or services you offer. Graphics can also evoke emotions in potential customers and make them more likely to view more of your content or check out your store.
