Branding, Surrey and South East
Logo design and brand identity for small businesses across Surrey and the UK. Not just a logo. A complete visual identity built around what your business actually is.
A lot of small businesses have a logo. Very few have a brand. The difference shows up everywhere: in how consistent they look across different channels, in how recognisable they are at a glance, in how much trust they build before anyone has spoken to them.
We build brand identities that work in the real world. On a business card. On a website. In a social media post at a small size on a phone screen. Everything we design has to work everywhere.
We work with businesses across Surrey and the UK that are serious about how they present themselves. If you want something built to last, let's talk.

What you get
A complete brand identity gives you the tools to be consistent across every touchpoint. We deliver everything you need to use your brand properly from day one.
Why it matters
A professional brand signals that you take your work seriously. Customers make judgements about a business based on how it looks before they read a word or make a call. First impressions happen online now.
Every time someone sees your brand, whether on social media, a vehicle wrap or your website, it either reinforces or undermines recognition. Inconsistency is invisible in the short term and very expensive in the long term.
Rebranding costs more than getting it right the first time. A proper brand identity project with clear guidelines means less back-and-forth with designers, printers and developers on every future job.
Who we work with
Startups who need a brand identity before they launch
Businesses rebranding after a period of growth or change
Sole traders who want to look more established
Ecommerce brands that need to stand out in a crowded market
Professional services firms where perception directly affects revenue
Any business whose current brand no longer reflects the quality of their work
Need branding alongside a new website? See our web design service We often combine both into a single project.
How it works
01
We start by understanding your business, your customers and your competitors. This shapes every decision we make. Nothing is arbitrary.
02
Before any logo work, we present a visual direction. Moodboards, references, tone. You agree on the direction before we start designing.
03
We present two or three considered concepts, not ten options that leave you guessing. Each one is different. Each one is deliberate.
04
You choose a direction, we refine it. Once you are happy, we deliver the full brand package. Every file you need, ready to use.
"We had been running with a logo someone made for us years ago. The rebrand Makeproper delivered changed how people talk about us. We look like a proper business now."

Questions
At minimum: a logo suite, colour palette, typography and a brand guidelines document. Larger projects include stationery design, social assets and brand application across your website and marketing materials.
Usually two or three. We find that too many options create confusion rather than clarity. Each concept we show you is something we would stand behind.
Yes. A standalone logo project is possible, but we will always recommend the full brand package where budget allows. A logo without guidelines is hard to use consistently.
A focused logo and identity project typically takes three to five weeks. Larger brand projects that include website design take longer. We will give you a clear timeline before we start.
Yes. Sometimes a brand has good bones but poor execution. We can work with what exists and bring it up to the standard it should be.
