    About this company

    Branding Box was founded by Richard Worsfold in 2022 with one key vision: to ensure our clients maintain a consistent appearance across all their client touchpoints. Typically, a business will have collaborated with a brand agency to create their brand. Once this work is complete, the business will be the proud owner of a set of brand guidelines, which they'll distribute to their web designer, social media manager, email marketer, and various other designers. Each of these individuals may interpret the brand guidelines slightly differently, leading to an element of brand drift. Branding Box can prevent this from happening, as we can work with you across each of your touchpoints to ensure that your brand remains consistent.
