4 ways to improve your brand’s message consistency

April 26, 2022

With so much variety by way of content, designs, products, and services in today’s marketing world, it takes a lot of work for brands to create a seamless experience for customers.

Maintaining brand consistency – from visuals to tone and voice – is essential for the authenticity of your company. But how do you bring all those elements together to create a consistent identity? Here are 4 top tips:

Create brand guidelines. Before briefing your design and copywriting teams, you need to be clear on what the brand stands for, what its mission is, how it will be visually presented like and how you intend to have it interact with your customers. Creating a set of brand guidelines or a handbook will help you establish the desired tone, style and core messaging that will lead to a consistent and authentic look of your organisation.
Conduct a brand audit. After your guidelines have been mapped out, you need to ensure that everything you do is aligned with those guidelines. Review what you’re currently running – social posts, assets, style, tone etc. and identify what elements aren’t supporting your brand. Doing this on a regular basis is good practice.
Collaborate and communicate. Ongoing collaboration between teams, departments and individuals is crucial in ensuring the message is understood by everyone. Make sure each team fully understands the brand guidelines you’ve established and has access to all assets and templates. Try to keep everyone connected and focused on the bigger picture to ensure everything is coming together smoothly.
Build a brand management team. Having a consistent plan in place isn’t an easy task. To avoid overwhelming a single person or a small group of individuals, invest in building a whole brand management team and equip them with the right tools and processes. That will help keep to ensure consistency.

Businesses have worked so hard to create successful brand identities, but sometimes a small missing piece can be a deal-breaker. Choosing the right tools and social media channels is essential for your overall marketing strategy.

Meta has started rolling ads into Threads timelines globally from late January 2026. That’s the moment Threads stops being a side app and becomes a paid, recommendation-led public square. Threads has passed 400 million monthly active users, and Meta has put daily actives at around 150 million. The strategic implication for B2C and B2B is the same; distribution gets easier to buy, credibility gets harder to earn. Threads rewards coherence in public conversation, how you answer, how you sound, how specific you are. Treat it as a trust surface, because that’s where decisions get shaped now.

Feeds are getting tired of “perfect”. A lot of the most interesting work going into 2026 is reacting against hyper-digital polish with visuals that feel more handled: scanned textures, mismatched elements, collecting layouts, and deliberate “imperfections” that make the human hand visible again. That matters for social, because audiences clock…
