GroundTruth, formerly xAd, Partners with Siegel+Gale on Rebranding Effort
NEW YORK, June 15, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- GroundTruth, the location technology company that drives results with real data, today announced their collaboration on a rebranding effort with Siegel+Gale.
GroundTruth's proprietary Blueprints location technology offers customers precise targeting to gauge business health, shape product design and drive sales. To signify the precision and scale of their data, Siegel+Gale developed a new brand positioning that leads with how to create, sell and innovate by building your business off something real - location. Siegel+Gale also developed a new messaging toolkit and digital experience for the GroundTruth brand.
"There are countless ways businesses can utilize location data," said Nancy Hansell, strategy director, Siegel+Gale. "GroundTruth's new brand expresses their unique ability to reach people in the moments that matter. That's significant because location reveals your behavior, your priorities and what's truly important in your life. The rebranding effort reinforces how harnessing the power of location reveals customer behaviors, business health and intentions like never before."
"When faced with the question of whether to rebrand, we knew we had to jump on the opportunity to elevate our technology and evolve outside the ad tech space," said Monica Ho, chief marketing officer, GroundTruth. "This rebrand comes at a pivotal time in our growth and allows us to tell a bigger story around location, setting us up for the next ten years of innovation."
Siegel+Gale developed an identity system inspired by GroundTruth's new brand values: be real, be inventive and be relentless.
Visual identity elements include:
- The logo resembles a location marker and a GT monogram representing GroundTruth's mission to create location as a category;
- The bright, neon colr palette reflects the personality, tone and energy of GroundTruth;
- Integrated everyday real-world imagery ties into the role of people and place;
- The sanserif typeface adds a traditional tone to the brands aesthetic;
- The emoticon toolkit brings a simple character set to life in everyday communications.
"We developed an iconic and energetic visual identity for GroundTruth to express what differentiates them: the ability to build off real moments with precision and accuracy to drive business results for customers," said Austyn Stevens, creative director, Siegel+Gale.
