Verax/Capabilities/Brand and positioning

The one idea you own.

Positioning is not a tagline. It is the decision about what you are for, who you are for, and what you are willing to be worse at. Everything else on this site is built to carry that decision.

01  /  Start small

Find out we are right before you spend real money.

These are deliberately cheap. Each one ends in a document you can act on, and none of them commits you to anything after it.

Revenue Leak Diagnostic

USD 900

We become your buyer and show you where enquiries die. Every form, reply and follow up, timed and recorded.

Competitive Teardown

USD 1,000

Five competitors, what each of them claims, and the gap none of them has taken yet.

AI Visibility Audit

USD 1,800

What ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google's AI answers say about you, and why they name your competitors instead.

Operations Audit

USD 3,000

Where automation genuinely saves you hours, and where it is a distraction dressed up as progress.

The system, written down

02  /  Why it matters

A company that will not choose gets chosen against.

When you sound like everyone else, price becomes the only thing left to compare. That is a fight you win by being cheapest, and you do not want to win it.

01

It comes before the logo

Identity work built on top of vague positioning looks handsome and sells nothing. We settle the argument first, then draw.

02

It has to survive contact

A claim is only real if your team can repeat it, your site can prove it, and your buyer can object to it and still be answered.

03

It is written down, not remembered

You get the claim hierarchy, the proof behind each claim and the objection framework in a document your people can follow without us in the room.

One idea, carried everywhere

03  /  Services

Brand and positioning work.

Ranges reflect scope, not negotiation. You get a fixed price before anything starts.

Message Mining Report

Your buyers' exact language, objections and unmet needs.

We read what your market already says in public and what it already said to you. Reviews, forums, sales calls and your own inbox. You get the words they use, the objections they raise before buying, and the needs nobody in your category is answering yet. It is the raw material every other piece of writing here is built from.

USD 1,500 to 2,500

Positioning Sprint

The one idea you own, and the argument that defends it.

Two weeks. We settle what you are for, who you are for, and what you will stop competing on. You leave with the claim hierarchy, the proof behind each claim, and the objection framework your team answers with. This is the single most useful thing most companies here buy first.

USD 3,500

Full Brand Identity

Naming, voice, visual identity and the brand book behind them.

The applied system, not a logo sheet. Naming where you need it, a written voice with real examples, the visual identity, and every application your business actually uses. It ships with a brand book your team can follow, so the identity survives the next person who joins.

USD 8,000 to 15,000

PR and Launch Programme

Earned coverage, media relations and the launch narrative.

A story worth printing, told to people who print stories. We build the narrative, prepare the spokespeople, and run the media relationships around a launch moment rather than sending releases into the dark.

USD 5,000 to 15,000

Print, Brochure and Direct Mail

Designed, produced and distributed.

Physical work still lands in categories where everyone else has gone quiet. We design it, manage production, and get it into the right hands.

USD 2,000 to 10,000plus production

Ongoing brand and design capacity is available monthly as Retained Creative. See plans and prices

04  /  Questions

What people ask about brand work.

Often not. If your identity works and your problem is that nobody can say what you do, buy the Positioning Sprint on its own and keep the logo.

Two weeks from the first session to the finished document. Most of that is us doing the work rather than you sitting in workshops.

We can, and sometimes we will say no. Drawing an identity for a company that has not decided what it stands for produces something that looks finished and argues for nothing.

You do. Files, fonts, source artwork and the written system are yours, and the brand book is written so another team could pick it up without us.
