We believe design without strategy has no direction. Strategy planning serves as
a blue print towards ensuring project success.
Design as a service should be based on a brief that addresses and answers
project goals, no ‘bells and whistles’ but creativity applied as a solution. Our
design approach is always adhering to global design trends, using cutting edge
authoring tools, our design team is continuously thriving to break new ground in
their creative offering.
Design is left for crafting and is guided by well resourced direction. Our Creative
Direction offering ensures that all design work adheres to global design trends as
well as ensure precise strategy implementation.
Project development Monitoring and Direction is key in ensuring that goals set for
the project are archived. We believe that the client should be a part of the process,
therefore our clients are kept abreast through informative client reviews and
reporting.
OUR APPROACH

considering what i t means to their market sector and ult imately how they, as an
organization can adapt and evolve to exploit this powerful medium.

Online Strategy
The Internet can be a powerful & effective extension to a company’s business. Visual
Republic offers pragmatic and down-to-earth advice, helping clients to create a realistic
and achievable strategy from the word go.
Research and Analysis
Are you considering a new online venture?
Even today, many companies forget the importance of evaluating the true business case
surrounding a new online business. Visual Republic Media carries out in-depth feasibil-
ity studies for companies who require our specialist insight, experience and access to
research facilities in order to establish whether their ventures are warranted, feasible or
simply worth pursuing.
Online brand development and management
Even when dealing with a well established brand, the online environment requires
appropriate brand positioning if a brand is to succeed online. The net is full of many
other brands and as in any marketing initiative, campaigns need to be molded and
placed in relevant places where our client campaigns are able to thrive as well as reach
the intended audiences. Visual Republic Media offers online brand adaptation and
online media placement services through global trend research and conformance to
World Wide Web Consortium Standards as well as relevant online industry regulatory
bodies.
WHAT WE DO
Online Marketing
Simply putting a website online does not mean people will be able to find it unless you
let them know about it in the first place. There are many ways to raise the profile of your
website - perhaps the most talked about and effective method is via SEO (Search
Engine Optimisation), but you should probably consider an overall marketing strategy,
so that you use the web and the real world to their maximum potential.
Banner advertising
One of the oldest forms of online advertising - banners, when done properly, (and
despite their ability to be terribly annoying when done badly) can be very effective.
Banners can be a cost effective, quick response form of marketing that can be closely
monitored to measure viewing and click-through rates.
Visual Republic can advise on the planning, design, placement and tracking of banner
advertising campaigns.
Email Marketing
E-mail is a powerful and low-cost way to communicate with existing customers and
visitors to your site. Your website can help you to build a mailing list, which would enable
you to send one-off or regular newsletters to your visitors and customers.
We provide you with the tools to help you collect customers' email addresses via your
website and then communicate directly with them as and when you need.
Marketing Campaigns
Even when people know about your website, it's important to keep them coming
back - a well thought out campaign that uses real world and online marketing can help
to maximise exposure to your audiences. We've supported many clients' campaigns, by
devising online competitions, polls, viral campaigns, banner ads, social network
marketing, newsletters and more.
WHAT WE DO
We operate both on a consultancy and agency basis for Communications, Marketing and
Advertising Agencies requiring design and creative strategy development services. We
handle strategic brand development, creative strategy planning right through to design
and Development.
We believe in forming good relationship with clients, our service offering not only covers
brand development but we thrive in seeing continued brand growth and usually commit
to a longer term relationships in order to ensure our brands reach and surpass their
potential. Unlike most design agencies, full time consultancy and commitment is given
to a project at a time, a relationship approach which has so far worked very well for us,
none of our clients dream about leaving us.
We don’t believe offering adhoc services is sustainable for us but rather growing with
our clients and projects therefore we’ve so far only committed to just a few clients and
have achieved a great deal with them
