The Challenge
Traffic Group Signals approached us in need of brand development and a new website. We were challenged to execute their vision of combining all of their sub brands under one parent brand. With the new branding decided, a new website would become a single point of reference for their customers and help position Traffic Group Signals as industry leaders.
The Solution
Before starting on the web project, our creative team was tasked with designing a new, extensive branding guide. Traffic Group Signals was formed in April 2019, combining over 100 years of knowledge and experience from Pike Signals and Hollco. Both of the sub-brands have their own rich historical heritage and branding. They also sell very similar products. The key objective of the branding was to unite the sub-brands into one clear message for their customers. This simplifies their business and streamlines the process for their end users, as they’ll have only one single point to go to.
We wanted the new branding to keep the heritage of the sub-brands alive, so we took the styling from the main Traffic Group Signals logo and applied it to the other brands to unite them all. We also utlisied the square device to mimic the traffic signals in the logo.
To set Traffic Group Signals apart from their competitors, we opted for a contemporary and lighter colour palette. The new colours represent the precision and accuracy of their products and services. Whilst helping them stand out from their competitors’ dark branding.
From there, our team of web experts could then begin designing a new website alongside the updated brand style. Firstly, a sitemap was created to fully understand the user journeys, helping to optimise and streamline web navigation as much as possible. By introducing different user paths for each user type, it would help visitors to find an immediate solution best suited to their needs. In addition, a prominent search function was also implemented as an additional route for users to quickly find and access information or technical documents. Finally, intuitive ‘call-to-actions’ were built and placed throughout the entire site to assist users and further optimise their journey.
To help Traffic Group Signals track user behaviour across the various sub-brands, we incorporated google analytics, cookie notices and web based form functionalities to integrate everything on one platform. By tracking online behaviours, Traffic Group Signals can now make data-led and informed decisions to reach both new and existing customers.
