People Decide Fast. Your Brand Shouldn't Leave Them Guessing.
Think of your brand like a first date. You’ve got seconds to catch the right attention, with the right signals. Look the part, strike the tone, and spark that “ooh, this could be something” moment.
But attraction isn’t enough. When your brand looks the part and knows what to say, the right people lean in. You get that second date.
That’s not just attention, that’s real connection.
Make Your Brand a No-Brainer
People are busy. Their brains are full. They don’t have time to decode what you do or wonder if you’re for them. If your brand doesn’t say it clearly and confidently, they move on.
We design brands that earn attention, build trust, and feel instantly relevant to the people you’re here to serve.
No confusion. No hesitation. Just a fast, clear “yes.”
Because the easier you make it for someone to get you, the more likely they are to stick around.
But what even is a brand anyway?
Your brand is the meaning people attach to your business.
It’s not just your logo.
It’s not your colour palette, your tagline, or even your Instagram grid.
It’s the gut feeling they get when they see your name. The shorthand they use to describe you to others. The thing that makes them choose you over someone else, often without knowing exactly why.
That’s why strong brands feel effortless.
We see the swoosh. We know it’s Nike. We hear the voice. We trust the brand. That kind of recognition is far from accidental: it’s very much designed on purpose.
At A Lined Design, we draw the line.
A line of copy. A line of illustration. A line of code.
Each one shapes how your brand is seen, felt, and understood.
Brand design isn’t just about how you show up, it’s how you make sure what you say is what they hear.
No more guessing. No more mixed signals.
Just strategic, aligned communication—built to resonate.
What You Get
This is where your brand starts doing the heavy lifting.
You’ll walk away with a full visual identity system that reflects who you are, resonates with the people you want to reach, and holds its own on every platform, at every size, in every conversation.
No more Facebook group polls or tweaking fonts at midnight. Just a brand that shows up, speaks clearly to your ideal customers, and grows with you.
Here’s what’s included in your full-scope branding package:
Logo System
A scalable identity suite that adapts beautifully across touchpoints: from favicon to billboard. You won’t just get one logo stretched into every use-case; you’ll get smart variations built for impact, legibility, and confidence everywhere you show up.
Custom Colour Palette
Distinctive, accessible color schemes are chosen to reflect your energy, support your content, and create recognition at a glance, whether on-screen or in print.
Typography Toolkit
Hand-picked fonts that reinforce your voice, elevate your visuals, and play well with everything from digital interfaces to printed documents.
Verbal Identity + Brand Voice
Your brand’s personality on paper. This tone-of-voice mini-guide gives you structure and clarity to show up consistently in writing, whether you’re DIYing Instagram captions or briefing a copywriter.
Imagery Direction
A clear visual direction to guide photo shoots, choose stock that fits, and bring cohesion to your content, without second-guessing your choices.
Strategy That Sticks
Before we design anything, we get to know your audience, your goals, and your place in the market. We use that insight to build a brand that’s rooted in purpose and ready to grow with you.
File Suite + Premium Brand Guidelines
Every logo and design asset is delivered in easy-to-use formats—cleanly named, logically organised, and ready for every scenario.
And yes, you’ll also receive a professionally designed brand guidelines document: your go-to playbook for consistency and confidence. It includes logo usage rules, colour specs, type hierarchy, tone and messaging principles, visual do’s and don’ts, and more. It’s what other designers might call “extra”… but we call it standard.
Your Investment
Your brand identity package starts at $4,000 AUD + GST. Book a website with us at the same time and get $500 off your brand package, bringing it to $3,500 AUD + GST.
Most brand design projects take around 6 weeks from brief to handover. If you’re getting that online presence web sorted with us at the same time, your timelines for website and brand will be woven together.
But (and this is important): timelines depend on clear communication, collaborative energy, and keeping the project moving. If you need a tight deadline, we’ll make a plan and stick to it—but we’ll need you to meet your own milestones too.
Need more than what’s listed?
We’ve got you. From branded templates to stakeholder workshops, we’re happy to tailor add-ons that fit your vision and support how you work. Keep on scrolling for add-ons.
The Brand That Got You Here Isn’t the One That’ll Get You There
That first brand? It did its job. It got you through the door, landed those early clients, and helped you build something real. We honour that.
But you’re not starting out anymore—and your brand shouldn’t be either.
Now it’s time to dress for the role you’re stepping into. To trade off-the-rack for the tailored fit and fancy shoes. To show up with a brand that reflects not just what you’ve done, but where you’re going.
No matter how good your offer is, most people start from ambivalence. Busy brains. Too many tabs open. One of which is playing music…
So show up in your new, made-to-measure suit. Say the thing that makes the right people lean in, nod along, and think, “This is exactly what I need.”
And if it’s not their vibe? Cool. Let ’em scroll.
Because a brand that knows what it’s saying (and who it’s saying it to) is halfway to the sale.
Need a Bit More?
We’ve Got the Goods
Sometimes a brand identity needs more than just the essentials.
Maybe you’ve got a team to unify. A launch to prep for. A Canva situation that’s… doing its best. Whatever the next move, we offer thoughtful add-ons that extend your brand’s impact, without turning it into a tangled mess of mismatched assets.
Add-ons can include:
Business Cards + Print Templates
Think letterheads, invoice templates, email signatures… anything that needs to look polished and on-brand.
Launch Graphics
Instagram tiles, email headers, mockups, or even a launch lookbook. We’ll help you roll out your new look with flair and consistency.
Custom Surveys + Research
Need audience insight before you commit? Who is your target market, and what tools do you need to have effective communication with them? We can help you design a brand perception survey, analyse the results, and incorporate what matters most.
Patterns, Icons + Brand Graphics
Want your brand to feel like yours everywhere it goes? Custom visual elements give you the flexibility to create cohesion in unexpected places: from packaging to uniforms to car decals.
Canva Template Kits
Editable post templates and visual guidelines so your team can create on-brand marketing materials easily—without diluting the look.
Team Brand Strategy Sessions
Perfect for larger orgs or collaborative businesses. We’ll help you get internal clarity so your external brand feels rock solid.
Need something custom?
Just ask. We’ll tailor a brand experience that fits your business and your ambition.

Absolutely loved working with Sarah @ A Lined Design to create my website for Balanced Inline. 2 years on, I am still loving my website & couldn’t be happier with the service from A Lined Design. Would highly recommend to anyone.
Rowena Zara, Balanced Inline
Working with Sarah and her A Lined Design team was a great experience… The end result was a user-friendly website that exceeded my expectations… I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented and efficient website and brand developer.
Katherine Riddoch, To Evolve
Working with the team at A Lined Design was a dream, they spent the time to get brand strategy and execution right, with a laser focus on our customer journey. They have turned our website into a key sales tool with a content marketing strategy that means our customers find us easily AND love our brand. The team are fast, process driven, strategic, great problem solvers with amazing attention to detail.
Andy Crawford, Walk on kunanyi
Working with A Lined Design has been the most fantastic experience. Sarah and the team were able to decipher our pie in the sky ideals and create a brand and logo that perfectly matched the feel we were going for. So easy to work with and very timely, highly recommend!
Angus Souter, Soho Wholefoods
Working with Sarah and her team at A Lined Design has been one of the best business decisions I have made.
Michelle Finan, Michelle Finan Interiors
It is important to me that “women support other women” and also when selecting a web designer that I support a local Tasmanian business. This is what I did when choosing Sarah Crawford and A Lined Design. I could not be happier with new professional but fun website and branding.
Steph Rubock, Footprints Educational Complex
Sarah and her team were fantastic!
They supported us through what we thought was initially quite a daunting process. They took the time to get to our the business and those that work in it and truly got to understand what made the business tick.
Kelly MacKay, Five Bob Farm
Sarah is an absolute star at what she does. She has been absolutely amazing from start to finish and boy did I test her during our build… Oh and her process, so freaking professional. Outstanding in the industry. She was always so supportive and knew the solutions to all my problems!
People out there, I cannot recommend A Lined Design highly enough.
Jenn Donovan, Social Media and Marketing
Sarah added more value to my project than I paid her in dollars. She’s a rare talent, a mixture of creativity and brains. The project paid for itself as I was able to free up my time and brain-space to actually work. I’m a client for life.
Dawn Rieniets, Kangaroo Spotting
…Sarah and her team are professional, easy-going, creative, proactive, thought-provoking, groundbreaking (and any other adverb that describes bloody awesome)… I cannot recommend A Lined Design more highly. If you need a website done right the first time – this is your team!
Janelle Larkin, Buy From Tasmania
Sarah came highly recommended and she didn’t disappoint… I am telling everyone I know what a fabulous experience it was to build a website alongside Sarah & Dawn and more importantly what joyous women they are.
Giselle Perry, Sofia Women's Circle
Sarah came highly recommended and it didn’t take long to see why. From the first meet to the last she has been extremely competent and professional, what meant more to me was her kindness and patience… Sarah’s onboarding process is outstanding and her project management skills top notch.

Brand Design Questions
What do I get in a branding package?
Think of this as your business’s best-dressed wardrobe—with the brains to match. You’ll receive:
Logo variations: Horizontal, stacked, icon, and favicon in a variety of formats (JPG, PNG, SVG) and colours.
Font + typesetting guide: Carefully chosen typography that looks fab and reads beautifully across web and print. (We’ll list your fonts, but licenses are up to you to purchase.)
Colour palette: HEX and RGB codes, carefully curated for consistency across digital and print.
Tone of voice + brand strengths: We work with our copywriters to uncover your secret sauce—your value, your audience, and the way only you do what you do.
Comprehensive brand style guide: Your brand bible. Refer to it daily for everything from social posts to packaging.
Can’t I just get a logo?
We get it—budgets are real. But “just a logo” won’t get you very far. Our branding packages include strategy, tone of voice, and a toolkit to build recognition and trust. That’s what your audience needs to say “yes” to you. A logo is only powerful when it’s part of a bigger picture.
Will you send me the editable design files?
Editable files aren’t included by default, but if you need them (say, for working with a packaging designer), we’ll happily provide them for an additional fee.
How many revisions do I get?
Two rounds of refinement are included. That’s usually more than enough—especially since we start with a strategy-backed stylescape to align everything before design begins. You’ll feel confident before we even touch the logo files.
What file types will I receive?
You’ll get each logo variation in:
JPG – Great for quick use in documents and online.
PNG – Transparent background, high quality.
SVG – Scalable without losing quality (ideal for web and print).
You’ll also get a cheat sheet on what each file type is for, so you’re never left guessing
Can I pay in instalments?
Yes! Branding projects are split into 3 payments:
50% upfront, 30% at the halfway mark, and 20% on delivery of final files.
Will you send me the font files?
Nope—but not because we’re mean. Fonts are intellectual property owned by their creators. We’ll list your brand fonts in your guide, along with where to buy them. Many are free or affordable from trusted foundries like Google Fonts or MyFonts.
What exactly is included?
Here’s what’s coming your way:
- Primary logo
- Logo variations (stacked, horizontal, submark, icon)
- Custom icon
- Font pairings + typesetting guide
- Brand colour palette
- Photography direction
- Tone of voice + brand strengths
- Full brand style guideline
Do I get brand guidelines with my project?
Absolutely, and not just any brand guidelines. At A Lined Design, we deliver an in-depth, beautifully designed brand guide with every branding project.
This isn’t a quick reference sheet either. It’s a powerful tool that helps you (and your team) stay consistent, confident, and creatively aligned long after our work is done.
Here’s what’s inside:
- Clear logo usage rules (what to do and what to avoid)
- Full colour breakdowns with HEX, RGB, and CMYK values
- Font styles, hierarchy, and pairing suggestions
- Image direction and visual tone of voice guidance
- Tone principles, and messaging anchors
- Social media tile samples and layout inspiration
It’s everything you need to lead your brand like a pro, and make sure anyone you work with does too. Our clients often call it their brand bible, and we build it to earn that title.
