People judge your business
before you say a word.
We’re a Melbourne branding agency that builds brands with strategy behind them — not just a logo. Whether you're modernising an existing identity or starting from zero, you get a complete system that makes your business look like the one to choose.
What you walk away with
Selected work
Brands we've built and rebuilt.
Identities designed by the CIE team — from full rebrands to launches from zero.

DY Remedial
Remedial construction — waterproofing and structural repair in Melbourne. Full identity built from zero: logo, colours and fonts, site and vehicle signage, and a guide that keeps every quote, report and post looking like the same company.

Prosperify
A new insurance agency that needed to look established and trustworthy from its very first client. A complete identity, created from zero.

Tespas
A bilingual school with a name families already knew. We modernised the brand so it looks as current as the education it offers, without losing that recognition.

Torres Sierra Promotora
An authorised insurance provider ready for a more professional image. We evolved the brand to communicate trust and solidity everywhere it appears.

Glowo
A study abroad and travel agency speaking to people planning their next big step. A fresh, energetic identity, built from zero.

Visas Mundo
A tourist visa agency where clients need to feel they’re in safe hands. A clear, reliable identity, built from zero.
The signals
If any of these sound familiar, your brand is costing you work.
An amateur-looking brand doesn't just look bad — it quietly moves you down the list every time a customer compares options.
Your brand looks amateur next to competitors — and it costs you credibility before the first conversation.
Your logo looks blurry or stretched depending on where it's used.
The brand no longer says what the business actually does — you grew, it didn't.
Instagram, website and business card look like three different companies.
You're about to spend on advertising — and you know the brand isn't ready to carry it.
You're launching something new and have nothing to present with — no logo, no colours, no rules.
Process
Four phases. Every project, every plan.
You always know what's happening and what comes next — and you see the direction before we design a single line.
We understand the business
A conversation about your business, your customers and how you want to be seen. Everything we design starts here.
You see it before we build it
We show you the visual direction — colours, style and inspiration — before designing anything. You approve it, so there are no surprises later.
We design, you shape it
We present your logo options, listen to your feedback and fine-tune. Three full rounds of changes included in every plan.
Everything is yours
Every file, plus your brand guide. You never depend on us — or anyone — to use your own brand.
What you get
A logo is a file. A brand is a system that keeps working without you.
Here's what each piece actually does for your business — because you should know what you're paying for.
A logo that fits everywhere
One version of a logo doesn’t fit everywhere. You get a wide version for your website and emails, a stacked one for social media and flyers, and a small symbol for your profile picture. Your brand always looks right, never stretched or squashed.
Colours that never change
Without exact colour references, your blue can look purple on screen and grey in print. We give you the precise references so your colours look the same on your website, your signage and your business cards.
Your brand guide
The rulebook that protects your investment. When you hire a freelancer, brief a printer or onboard a new team member, they apply the brand correctly without supervision. Consistency, years after we hand over.
Every file, ready to use
Files for your printer, your web designer and your social media, organised and ready to send. You're never stuck waiting on a designer to send you the right file.
A guide for your photos
Simple rules for how your photos should look: light, angles and mood. Without it, every post looks like a different company. With it, the whole feed reads as one brand.
Everything ready for launch day
Business cards, presentations, social media templates, email signature, flyers and branded merchandise. Everything shows your new brand on launch day, instead of quoting each piece separately over the following months.
Two services
Where are you starting from?
Branding isn't one service. Evolving a brand people already recognise is a different job from creating one that doesn't exist yet — different process, different scope. Pick your starting point. Every plan includes three full rounds of changes.

The smart choice
CIE Marketing vs a typical agency
You get a complete brand, not just a logo file.
Freelancer
Usually no strategy and no brand guide. When you need your files a year later, there’s no guarantee they’re still around.
CIE Marketing
Strategy first. Your logo, colours, fonts and brand guide, every file, and a brand that’s 100% yours. Quoted to what you actually need.
Generic agency
Long timelines, packages built for someone else, and extra fees for files and revisions that should have been included.
Ideal client
This service is built for you if...
Trades and construction
You win work on quotes and site visits. Your brand has to look as solid on a vehicle, a uniform and a PDF report as it does online.
Insurance, finance and professional services
Clients trust you with money and decisions. A dated or inconsistent brand makes that decision harder before you’ve spoken.
Schools, study and travel agencies
Students and families compare several options online. A clear, consistent brand is what gets you on the shortlist.
New businesses about to launch or advertise
You need to look established from day one, and you want the brand ready before you put money into ads.
If your business has outgrown its brand — or doesn't have one yet — this service was built for exactly that.
Brand Care Plan — for when the brand is done but the work isn't.
Most businesses need new graphics every month — a campaign flyer, a special post, a banner resize. Instead of quoting each piece, you get a monthly block of design time with the team that built your brand. Quoted separately; not part of the branding service.
What you can request
- ✓Campaign flyers
- ✓Special social posts
- ✓Banner adaptations
- ✓Small changes to existing designs
- ✓Alternative versions of existing material
- ✓Resizing designs for any platform
FAQ
Questions, answered before you ask.
Do I own the brand and the files?+
Yes. The brand and all the original files become 100% yours once the project is paid in full. CIE Marketing keeps the right to show the work in our portfolio and promotional material.
How do I pay?+
One-off payment in two parts: a deposit to start the project and the balance on final delivery. No subscriptions or recurring fees for branding. We accept Stripe (card) or bank transfer.
How many changes can I ask for?+
Three full rounds of changes are included in every plan, in every service. Because you approve the look and feel before we design, those rounds are usually about fine-tuning, not starting over.
Which service do I need?+
If you already have a logo you want to keep evolving, that's Rebranding. If you have no brand, or you're changing name and direction entirely, that's Branding from scratch. Not sure? Send us what you have and we'll tell you honestly.
How long does it take?+
From 7–10 business days for a Rebranding Refresh up to 3–4 weeks for a Rebranding Renewal or a Branding Launch, counted from the moment you approve the look and feel. Timely feedback from your side is what keeps a project on schedule.
Do you work with businesses outside Melbourne?+
Yes. We're based in Melbourne and work with businesses across Australia — Sydney, Brisbane, Perth and regional areas — entirely online. Our first conversation happens over video call and every file is delivered digitally.
Why don't you show prices?+
Because branding scope genuinely varies — a single-service trade and a multi-location business need different work. We quote each project on its real scope so you're not paying for things you don't need. Message us and you'll get an itemised quote, no obligation.
Still have a question? Ask us on WhatsApp — we answer during Melbourne business hours.

Tell us what you have today — a logo, an idea, or nothing at all. We'll tell you which service fits and send you a clear, itemised quote. No cost, no obligation.
