Case Study

Evolving with purpose:
Swayed Greyhound’s brand refresh.

This wasn’t just a visual update. It was about building a brand that could actually carry the weight of the business behind it — from first handshake to follow-up email.

  • WHO — Swayed Greyhound
  • WHAT — Brand Redesign, Print Design, Motion Design, Digital Assets
  • WHEN — 2023 – 2025
  • WHERE — North East England
  • HOW — Full brand system built across print, motion, and digital touchpoints
The Objective

Build the Brand
from the Ground Up.

Swayed Greyhound came to us with a clear sense of who they are — business trainers and coaches who put people first. What they needed was a brand that said the same thing before they opened their mouth.

  • Complete visual identity redesign
  • Greyhound mark redrawn from scratch
  • Brand system to carry across every touchpoint
The Objective
Year One
Year One

Fixing the
Foundations.

The first year was about getting the core identity locked in. We rebuilt the greyhound mark, set the colour palette — bold magenta, clean black and white — and made sure everything worked together as a system. Once the brand was solid, the print work followed.

  • Greyhound illustration redrawn for flexibility and impact
  • Magenta, black, and white colour system established
  • Business card design — double-sided, print-ready
  • Pop-up banner design for events and networking
Year Two

Growth & Digital
Presence.

With the brand foundations solid, year two was about taking it online. LinkedIn is where Swayed Greyhound’s clients live — so we made sure the brand was showing up there properly. A new banner and profile design that carries the full identity into their most important professional channel.

  • LinkedIn banner and profile design
  • On-brand. On-platform. On point.
Year Two
Brand Experience
Brand Experience

Rooted in People
& Performance.

Every email Swayed Greyhound sends is now a brand moment. We built a custom HTML email signature that keeps the identity consistent across every inbox, every time — because the details matter just as much as the big picture.

  • Custom HTML email signature
  • Consistent brand presence across all communications
  • Magenta, black, and white — every time, no exceptions
