Conquest Ink’s clients are thought leaders with complex and interesting stories and are typically focused on social impact, business or education.

PNOinsurance

There are some projects that the Conquest Ink team are immensely proud of and PNOinsurance is one of these as the brand story only continues to grow stronger.

As a privately owned, sector focused insurance broker, PNOinsurance has earned a reputation as a critical partner and advocate for business owners and entrepreneurs across Australian.

PNOinsurance was launched in 1977 and its more recent Board members encouraged a much-needed brand refresh with the blessing of the founding partners. The result was a contemporary and relatable brand that was celebrated and embraced by every member of the team and its valued clients.

The brief was to honour the important history and credentials of the business while creating a new brand identity that represented the vision of the company and the commitment to excellence of its team in a highly competitive market.

This project involved unearthing and clearly articulating the values of the firm that had been, and continue to be, integral to the success of the business. The client later explained that the articulation of those values has played a valuable role in myriad Board meetings involving critical business decisions and in the staff induction process and cultural development of the business. Deliverables included:

  • Strategic communications workshops
  • New brand identity
  • Brand identity for sub brands
  • Brand style guide
  • Brand tagline
  • Hierarchy of key messages
  • Website brand architecture
  • Website copy
  • Values workshop
  • Values artwork for office
  • Office signage
  • Visual assets library.

Conquest Ink was so inspired by the PNOinsurance story and experience, that some of our team signed up for their PNOLife service.
