Transforming the Robert Half Brand.
During my tenure as Art Director (Global Brand) at Robert Half over eight years, I led teams of talented designers in creating impactful marketing pieces, digital ads, websites, and videos. Our collaborative efforts focused on modernizing the brand and distilling its story, staying true to our core values.
Robert Half Technology Brand Story: Innovation starts with people
We began with the Robert Half Technology Brand Story, broadening our focus beyond help desk services to include attracting developers and innovation-minded professionals. This strategic expansion aimed to position Robert Half as a comprehensive leader in tech talent, capable of providing greater value and a wider range of expertise to its customer base.
To introduce our emerging brand story, we published our comprehensive Salary Guide for technology professionals, which showcased the true value of innovation in the rapidly evolving tech industry. The guide took readers on a journey that began with the birth of an idea, dreamed up by a small team of creatives working in a garage. We highlighted their journey to build a business that met the challenges of a changing world, fueled by the power of innovation
Throughout the guide, we featured inspiring stories of companies that started small but grew to become leaders in their respective fields. These stories illustrated the power of ingenuity and the value of taking risks, emphasizing how innovation was key to success in the tech industry.
Robert Half Technology embraces its tagline 'Technology doesn't change the world, people do' by prioritizing the human factor in technological progress. Through expert staffing solutions, Robert Half Technology connects individuals with the right jobs, emphasizing the power of matching talent to opportunities.
By emphasizing cutting-edge technology, collaboration, and forward-thinking solutions, we successfully redefined the brand's image. This transformation not only broadened our appeal but also strengthened Robert Half's market presence and customer relationships.
This approach not only drives innovation but also fosters environments where people thrive, making meaningful impacts in the tech industry and beyond
Brand Refreshes, anticipating the workplace of the future and evolution
What followed was the ambitious rebranding of Robert Half in which we embarked on a journey to unify its various sub-brands under a cohesive master brand strategy. Through meticulous research and collaborative efforts, we identified the essence of each brand and strategically aligned them to resonate with our target audience. By leveraging consumer insights and market trends, we crafted a master brand strategy that seamlessly integrated all brands under the Robert Half umbrella, ensuring consistency in messaging and visual identity while allowing each sub-brand to maintain its unique identity. This holistic approach not only strengthened the overall brand presence but also provided a clear and unified experience for our audience, fostering trust and recognition across all touchpoints.
