That said, marketers should choose it very carefully. The behaviorism of color, when it is related to promotion of the brands and the company, is the most interesting and controversial part of marketing, both online and offline. Discussions regarding colors and persuasions is quite common today. If you are interested in knowing more about the importance of color in branding, keep reading.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Importance of color in marketing<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Colors play a great role in bringing about certain responses from consumers. Each color elicits an emotional response. Colors, therefore send different messages to consumers and can encourage them to make purchases or to follow a certain company. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">According to a study on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.logodesignteam.com\/blog\/red-yellow-blue-and-your-design-that-influences-clients\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">impact of color in marketing<\/a>, researchers found that customers are inclined to favour specific colors which make a total of 90% sales of both the online and offline products. The interactive effects of colors, another study, points out the usage of color in branding. It tells us mainly about the relation between color and brand is contingent upon which colors are used. Therefore, a color should fit a product perfectly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Exciting Red and Competent Blue is another study which reveals that human brains always go for brands which are recognized, thus making the use of color is very essential while creating the identity of the brand. The same thing is also suggested in Color Research and Application where it was clearly stated that the business owners both small and large should pay great attention in choosing the color in designing their logos so as to stand out in this competitive world of business. If all of your competitors use blue in their logo, you can differentiate yourself by using purple.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Long story short, -it confirms that purchasing intent is greatly affected by colors due to their effect on how a brand is perceived; colors influence how customers view the &#8220;personality&#8221; of the brand in question. Who, for example, would want to buy a Harley Davidson if they didn\u2019t get the feeling that Harleys were rugged and cool?<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">These studies show that colors also provide a window to the personality of the owner as well as the products. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.logodesignteam.com\/logo-design-order.php?\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4482 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.logodesignteam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/LDT-005.jpg\" alt=\"Order Your Logo\" width=\"720\" height=\"100\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.logodesignteam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/LDT-005.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.logodesignteam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/LDT-005-300x42.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Preferences of color by male<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Joe Hallock\u2019s &#8220;ColorAssignments&#8221; shows that men prefer colors like white, black, grey, and silver for cars. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">It is very important to note that one\u2019s cultural perceptions play a great role in determining the appropriateness of color for gender, which ultimately influences the choices of the individuals. A coverage by Smithsonian magazine gave a detailed description of how boys became more inclined towards blue color leaving the pink color for the girls. While 57% men preferred blue color, 35% of women like that color. Quite interesting, right? Actually, there is a long list by Joe Hallock which highlights both the most favourite and the least favourite color of men and women.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Additional researches related to the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Color_psychology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">psychology of color<\/a> show that when it comes to tints, shades and hues, men prefer bold colors while most of the women prefer soft colors. Moreover, men generally opt for a shaded color with a little mix of black. And women find themselves more inclined towards tinted colors with shades of white.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Relation between color co-ordination and conversion<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">For conversion points on some websites, debunking the \u201cbest\u201d color has been a very popular topic. It is because there is no definite single color which is ready for conversion. According to the principle of psychology known as Isolation Effect, people remember something more when it completely sticks out from its surroundings. This principle is effective in the case of marketing too.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Relax your mind, think straight and choose your logo and branding color effectively to stay in the minds of your customers forever.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.logodesignteam.com\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2580\" src=\"https:\/\/www.logodesignteam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Custom_Logo_Design_by_Creative_Graphic_Designers_of_Logo_Design_Team.jpg\" alt=\"Custom_Logo_Design_by_Creative_Graphic_Designers_of_Logo_Design_Team\" width=\"1318\" height=\"559\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.logodesignteam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Custom_Logo_Design_by_Creative_Graphic_Designers_of_Logo_Design_Team.jpg 1318w, https:\/\/www.logodesignteam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Custom_Logo_Design_by_Creative_Graphic_Designers_of_Logo_Design_Team-300x127.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.logodesignteam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Custom_Logo_Design_by_Creative_Graphic_Designers_of_Logo_Design_Team-768x326.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.logodesignteam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Custom_Logo_Design_by_Creative_Graphic_Designers_of_Logo_Design_Team-1024x434.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1318px) 100vw, 1318px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Order a Custom Logo or Graphic Design to Enhance Your Brand<\/h3>\n<p>No matter what type of personal brand, business or organization you are running, having a great first impression means everything.
