SONIC BRANDING

Your Brand's New Superpower

Close to 79% of people recognize
brands by their sound.

Your New Brand Superpower is Sound

Logos, colors, and other imagery are standard markers of brand identity. But humans perceive sound faster than they see, taste, smell, or touch. So the next big memorable campaign might sound more memorable than it looks, making sound your new brand superpower.

The audio logo (a/k/a sonic logo), the heart of the sonic brand and an essential first step in sonic brand storytelling, is a signature piece of sound that identifies the brand and is easy to remember (think NBC, Intel, Netflix). Used cross-platform, the sonic logo is the most powerful way to build enduring brand recognition and differentiation.

In fact, music and sound evoke a spectrum of emotions, which enhances memory.*

The Sonic Brand: The Cornerstone
Of Your Brand Story

The sonic brand isn't just an audio moniker. It's the cornerstone of the brand story — part of a storytelling trio with the visual logo and brand messaging.

Sound is personal.

Sound is stored in echoic memory (as opposed to visuals' shorter iconic memory), so brand sound gets into our human brains and stays there.

Sound goes deep into the areas of the brain where emotions live.

Using sound to create an emotional tie to a brand is the ideal form of customer personalization. That's because sound resonates with customers per their perceptions, beliefs, attitudes, preferences, expectations, and, yes... emotions.

Sound therefore delivers a deeply individual experience — the very definition of personalization. As a result, it creates an enduring connection between brands and consumers.

Turn Interest Into Engagement Across Every Touchpoint

Well-developed sonic brands are scalable, easily revised, adapted, and expanded to grow with the brand and capture new market segments. It becomes the heart of sonic brand storytelling to:

Reinforce brand identity
Boost recall
Deliver engaging brand interactions and activations
Ensure a consistent, highly engaging customer experience

Throughout all stages of the buyer's journey, sound delivers a brand experience that feels personal to customers. The importance of that is underscored by the fact that, after a positive experience with a brand, 72% of customers will share their experience with 6 or more people.*

In other words...

Out of 100 customers who have a positive experience with your brand, 72 of them would tell 432 other people about it.
