in your logo, but also in other brand
materials such as your website, business
cards, promotional materials, presentations,
documents, printed materials etc. When
creating your color palette, you’ll want to
choose 2-3 key colors to use. Too many colors
can be overwhelming and can make the
branding muddy. Once the color palette is
determined it is important to be
consistent. You’ll find that consistency is key
when it comes to branding. Inconsistencies
send confusing messages to your audience
and make you look unprofessional as well.
