Branding and brand strategy.

Positioning, identity and messaging that says one clear thing instead of five vague ones. Usually the cheapest way to improve every other number, because it decides what the site, the ads and the content are all trying to say.

The short answer

99creatix provides branding and brand strategy for small businesses in the UK, EU, USA, Canada and UAE. The work covers positioning, visual identity, a messaging system and brand guidelines, and costs $1,800 as a one-time price, or is included when bought inside the $4,900 Launch website build. All files and rights transfer to the client on completion.

Everything below explains what is included, how it runs, and what it costs. If you would rather skip to the numbers, the full price list is published in full here.

What is included

Four lines, three weeks.

Branding is one decision and three artefacts that carry it. Here is each one, what it means in plain words, and when it lands.

PositioningWeek one

The one thing you are for, and who you are not for. Built from your actual clients and your actual competitors, not a workshop of adjectives.

Visual identityWeek two

Logo, palette, type and the rules for using them. Designed to survive a favicon and a shopfront sign, not just a presentation slide.

Messaging systemWeek two to three

Your positioning turned into sentences your team can reuse: headline, elevator line, proof points, and the words you will never use.

Brand guidelinesWeek three

One document short enough that people actually read it, so the brand survives contact with a freelancer.

How it runs

Three weeks, one message.

One route is presented with the reasoning shown, rather than five options to pick from blind. We would rather be told no in week one than agreed with politely for three.

Week 01

Find the one thing

Interviews, competitor review and a positioning statement you either recognise or reject. We would rather be told no early.

Week 02

Make it visible

Identity and messaging built from that position, presented as one route with the reasoning shown, not five options to pick from blind.

Week 03

Make it usable

Files, guidelines and handover, so the brand can be applied without us in the room.

Our own repositioning is the case study we can show in full: an agency that publishes its prices, guarantees a launch date and reports revenue. Every page on this site is that one sentence, said again.

Questions we get asked

Answered straight.

How much does branding cost for a small business?

$1,800 as a one-time price for positioning, identity, messaging and guidelines. Included when bought as part of the $4,900 Launch website build.

What is the difference between a logo and a brand?

A logo is a mark. A brand is the one thing people believe about you, of which the logo is the smallest visible part. We will do both, but the positioning is what changes your numbers.

Do I own the logo files and rights?

Yes, everything, on completion. Source files, fonts guidance, and full rights.

How long does branding take?

Typically three weeks. Longer only if the positioning genuinely needs more evidence, and we will tell you why rather than stretching it silently.

Do I need branding before a new website?

If you cannot say in one sentence what you do and who for, yes: the site will just repeat the confusion at higher resolution. If you can, the site may be the better first spend.

Do you do rebrands for established businesses?

Yes, though we will push you hard on whether you need one. Rebranding is often an expensive way to avoid a positioning problem.
