Sonic Branding
Sound Builds Emotional Connections
Music is considered one of the most important executional cues in advertising.
When used correctly, music can positively influence consumers’ mood, memory, purchase intentions and attitude towards brands.
Sonic Branding, in particular “jingles”, enable brands to form immersive and memorable connections across all touchpoints, increasing brand awareness and loyalty.

The Science Of Sound
In today’s highly crowded information environment, sonic branding can lift awareness and memorability as well as arouse emotions that prompt positive associations with your brand.
The world’s most iconic and memorable brands live in our heads, because they know how sound connects on a subconscious emotional level.
Understanding how the brain processes sound is essential to sonic branding. It stimulates an emotional response, and has the ability to become rooted in the belief system.
A study by the research company Sentient Decision Science, found that sound can influence a person’s desire to engage or avoid a brand by 86%.
Studies also show that during an ads “call to action” audio branding elicits 18% higher positive emotional response than visual only branding. Ads featuring sonic branding also perform 8.5 x better for overall attention, vs those that don’t.
One of the most effective ways a brand can express itself and make lasting impressions is through its distinct sound and music.
Sound Design & Audio Post Production
More than half of what we experience while watching a video is the sound. It’s just as important as the video itself in telling your story. Your message needs to compete with everything around it on the world stage. Whether it’s on television or social media, your message needs to sound better than what is experienced before and after it. We work with you to bring your picture to life. Whether you have all the pieces of the puzzle together, or you need help with different elements of the sound track, we help you finalize the audio for your project to ensure your audience hears you.
