Be different. On purpose.
Good branding doesn’t happen by accident. It’s carefully designed to reflect who you are, what you stand for and why people should choose you. When done properly, branding becomes the foundation for every piece of marketing that follows.
brand strategy
We help you define your brand so it has direction and purpose. This gives you a strong starting point and makes future design and marketing decisions much easier.
brand guidelines
Make sure your brand looks and sounds the same wherever it appears. They give you clarity and confidence when creating new content.
logo design
Your logo should be clear, recognisable and true to your brand. We design logos that work across your website, print and social media.
business cards
Business cards are often the first thing someone takes away from a meeting. We design cards that represent your business properly and leave a good impression.
Branded assets
From stationery to social templates and brochures, we design brand assets that feel consistent and easy to use across your business.
Printing
We can arrange printing through trusted suppliers and make sure everything is set up correctly. You get high quality printed materials without needing to deal with printers yourself.

We do branding with purpose
Branding should feel considered and purposeful. We take the time to understand your business, your customers and what really matters to you. Every design decision is made by people, not algorithms, and always has a reason behind it.
We work closely with you throughout the process, keeping things clear and collaborative. Whether you are starting from scratch or refreshing an existing brand, we help you create something that feels genuine, meaningful and easy to stand behind.
what people say about us
Posted on karen treisman14/11/2025 My experience of 404 Marketing has been excellent. They created a fantastic website for me that has been such an improvement on my previous website. Darryn has been great at working collaboratively and checking things out, and worked really hard to make sure I was happy with everyone and most importantly that it worked really well and was a great user experience. He also has been super responsive to emails which makes such a difference. And created a fab newsletter for me as well! I also had to switch quite quickly from one website host to Darryn and this was quite anxiety provoking however he did it so smoothly and without any hiccups. I would not hesitate to recommend Darryn and his team to others.Posted on Lisa Gordon11/11/2025 Darryn worked with me to create a new website as mine was outdated and needed an upgrade.

Frequently asked questions
What exactly is branding?
Branding is how your business looks, feels, and comes across to people. It’s more than just a logo, it’s your colours, fonts, tone of voice, and the overall impression you leave. Done properly, it’s what makes you recognisable and different from everyone else.
Why is branding important for my business?
Your brand is your business’s personality. It helps people trust you, remember you, and feel confident choosing you over competitors. Strong branding makes you look more professional, builds loyalty, and gives your business something solid to grow from.
Can branding help my business attract more customers?
Absolutely, when it’s done properly. Good branding creates a strong first impression, makes your business easier to recognise, and clearly communicates what makes you different. Over time, it also helps with repeat business and word-of-mouth referrals.
How long does a branding project take?
It depends on what you need. A focused branding project can take a few weeks, while a full brand strategy and identity usually takes around 4–12 weeks. We’ll always be upfront about timescales before anything starts.
What does “full brand guidelines” include?
Your brand guidelines are the rulebook for your brand. They cover things like your logo, colours, fonts, and how everything should (and shouldn’t) be used. It keeps your branding consistent across your website, social media, print, and anywhere else your business shows up.
Can I rebrand my business if it’s already established?
Yes! Lots of well-known brands do it to stay relevant. Sometimes that means a full rebrand, other times just a refresh of certain elements. We wouldn’t recommend changing things too often though, your brand needs time to build recognition. If you’re unsure what’s right for your business, just get in touch and we’ll give you honest advice.
