Creating A Unified Brand For Slick Communication Through Smart Microsoft Templates
Background
Following the merger of Converga and Harbour IT into Canon Business Services (CBS), the marketing team at CBS needed a complete overhaul of their Word and PowerPoint templates. The goal was to create a cohesive suite of templates reflecting the CBS brand, while converting legacy documents and presentations from Converga and Harbour IT into the new design. Having previously worked with Harbour IT on similar projects, we were well-acquainted with their business needs and document requirements, positioning us to deliver a solution tailored to the scale and complexity of this transition.
What we did
We approached the project in phases to ensure smooth execution:
Template Design and Build
We developed new PowerPoint and Word templates aligned with CBS branding. These were designed to meet the diverse needs of the organisation, including sales proposals, pitch decks, brochures, infographics, and team profiles.
Legacy Document Conversion
Up to 30 legacy presentations and documents were rebranded and converted into the CBS templates, ensuring a seamless visual identity across all collateral.
Training and Support
To facilitate template adoption, we conducted live online training sessions for a large number of CBS team members. These sessions introduced users to their new templates, demonstrated key features, and provided a forum to address questions in real time.
Collaboration on Collateral
Post-template creation, we partnered with the CBS team to produce a range of critical materials, including sales proposals and infographics, ensuring a consistent and professional brand presence across all outputs.
The result
Canon Business Services now has a unified and professional suite of templates that reflects their brand and meets the functional needs of their teams. The conversion of legacy documents streamlined their internal workflows, while the new templates enabled CBS to produce visually consistent and on-brand communications effortlessly.
