Most businesses do not have a brand problem. They have a consistency problem. The logo was designed by one person, the website by another, the brochure by a printer and the videos by whoever was free. Each piece is fine on its own, and together they look like four different companies. Customers in Dubai see all of them in a single afternoon, on a phone, and quietly decide you are smaller than you are.
Branding and content at Sayso is one team with one brief. The identity we design becomes the guidelines, the guidelines become the website and the brochure, the words we write carry the same voice everywhere, and the film and photography are shot to fit the places they will be shown. You get a brand that looks and sounds like one company, from the shop sign to the Instagram story.
What we do
Brand. We design logos and identity systems, write and design the guidelines that keep them consistent, and produce the brochures, stationery and packaging that put them in people's hands.
Design and words. We design interfaces for websites, apps and dashboards, researched with real users and handed over as a design system developers can build from. And we write the copy: website pages, articles, brochures, emails and social posts in plain British English, in your voice, structured so that people and search engines find the answer fast.
Our own film team makes brand films, commercials, social media video and photography. It has produced eleven commercial films to date for hospitality, real estate, interiors, sport and culture clients, including IDA x Marriott, Nahaté x Zuma and Qatar Story.
How we work together
Strategy, art direction, writing and project management come from our Dubai team, and you have one point of contact here throughout. Design production is shared with our designers in Chennai, Coimbatore, Singapore and Malaysia, and film and photography are made by our own film team. We say this plainly because it is how we deliver studio quality at a sensible pace: a Dubai studio backed by an established team across India and South East Asia.
Can we start with one service, or do we have to take the whole package?
Start wherever the need is. Many clients come for a logo or a film and add the rest over time. Each service stands alone, and because the same team delivers them, anything you add later fits what came before.
Do you work in Arabic?
Yes. We design bilingual identities and layouts, arrange Arabic copy with native writers, and film and subtitle in Arabic and English. Right to left layouts are designed properly, not mirrored from the English.
How does branding and content fit with your website work?
The identity and guidelines become the design tokens for the site, the copy is planned alongside the design, and the film and photography are shot and sized to keep the pages fast. If we build the website, the same team carries the work from the first workshop to launch.
What does it cost?
Each service is priced as a fixed scope after a free 30 minute call, and the price does not change unless the scope does. Combining services usually saves time and budget, because research, brand files and shoot days are shared.
