We build manufacturing brands.

Branding for manufacturers who make better products than their brand lets on. It’s time to hero your craftsmanship.

Manufacturers win more when they build a brand that matches their craftsmanship. The common mistake is focusing on output over process.

Your brand and your process are why your customer chose you. We can prove it.

Real problems.

Crappy logo and an old website.

Your logo was made in a hurry years ago and the website hasn’t kept up with the business. Buyers judge your quality by what they see first, so a tired brand makes good products look cheap. A sharp identity and a website that shows how you make things lets your quality speak before anyone asks for a sample.

Overseas can affect your price.

Imported products can undercut you on cost every time. If your brand doesn’t explain why yours is worth more, buyers compare you on price alone and your margin goes with it. Show what local making gives them, like quality, speed and support, and you give them a reason to pay for it.

You say too much with no specifics.

Your website and brochures list every product, capability and claim, but never say what makes you different. Buyers skim, find nothing to hold on to and move on. Say less, back it with real numbers and real jobs, and buyers remember why you are the better choice.

Gymleader brand

Case study

Gymleader. A logo with nowhere to live.

Gymleader manufactures sports equipment in New Zealand. When they came to us they had a logo and nothing more: no graphics, no photography and no video, with a new website and their first digital marketing waiting on all three.

We built the world for the logo to live in, taken from the sports court where their products live. Court markings became a graphic system and colour palette, and new photography and video put the team and the craftsmanship up front. That craftsmanship has since put Gymleader on the map with educational institutes across New Zealand.

What changes.

Quality you can see.

Real photography of real making, so buyers see the difference before they ask for a sample.

A reason to pay more.

A clear position on what you do better gives your sales team a story that beats a cheaper quote.

One brand everywhere.

Product, packaging, website, trade stand and sales sheets all look like one capable manufacturer.

Why nim.

The nim creative team working through a brand together

We only work with industrial businesses. So we start with your business, not a logo.

We have spent more than a decade in workshops, plants, depots and site offices. We know how manufacturing buyers think, how long they take to decide and what they need to see before they say yes.

We start with strategy: what you do better, who buys it and why they should believe you. Then we build an industrial branding system that makes it obvious, and keep it working through content and marketing.

That is how manufacturing businesses become the name their market thinks of first.
