Branding focussed on the future
Digital first for a business and IT consultancy
Brands seek to make a huge impact. Yet, the number of daily touchpoints with the target group is smaller, occurring primarily digitally on smartphones. It is therefore makes sense to develop a digital first focus, ensuring they can adapt to a rapidly evolving digital landscape and anticipate future touchpoints. This is precisely what we did for IT and business consultancy metafinanz. After all, the brand's core values are based on future-focus, adaptability and transformation.
A new mission statement
We are living in exciting times: the discourse on the future viability of the economy, society and the world as a whole is marked by upheaval. Businesses in this world must constantly reassess their own options. This is where our client comes in: The business and IT consultants at metafinanz help companies to bring their future viability to light. The result was our mission statement, which we embodied in everything from the brand strategy to the corporate design, tone of voice and website—and which ultimately became the new claim.

There is a light...
So we made light our guiding star. Light as the beginning of everything. Light as energy, life, growth: Light makes visible, light provides direction orientation, light illuminates. Light spotlights possibilities. And the future. We used light to develop the branding for metafinanz. Starting with the logo.
Stays in you mind: the animated logo
The new logo for metafinanz was designed entirely digitally: Digital media has the potential for animation—a static logo would be a waste of potential. That is why our logo is in constant motion. Circles of light around the solid core constantly change the area they illuminate, opening up new possibilities. The logo symbolises the way metafinanz works: agile and networked. It embodies the ability to continuously adapt to new customer, market and societal demands.

How fit is the SME sector for the future?
On the occasion of the launch of the new brand, we took a closer look not only at the future viability of metafinanz, but also at the future viability of German small and medium-sized businesses. This was based on a detailed qualitative and quantitative study that we designed—with success. We were able to introduce the new metafinanz to the target audience through media with a wide reach such as SPIEGEL magazine.
The first stage of the journey into the future
"With our new positioning and revised brand, we have reached an important milestone on our own voyage into the future. Together with the fischerAppelt Group, we have laid the foundations for the coming decades. "With a bold, forward-thinking, hands-on, and collaborative approach, this is how we want to drive progress for ourselves and our clients," states Rainer Göttmann, Managing Director at metafinanz.
