Brand Kit Examples

May 28, 2025

Because your DIY logo isn’t doing you any favours 😬

Let’s be real: starting a business is no small feat. You’ve got services to launch, clients to book, and a hundred tabs open at all times (both literally and mentally). We get it, branding can feel like something you’ll “get to later.” But here's the thing: your brand is often the first impression people get. And if it’s looking rushed or inconsistent… that impression might not stick.

Good news? You don’t need a massive budget or months of back and forth to look polished and professional from the jump.

Semi-Custom Brand Kits for Entrepreneurs

Enter: semi-custom brand kits. 🎉

These pre-made (but totally elevated) kits are professionally designed by real designers (hi, that’s us!) and give you everything you need to show up looking legit. Think of them as the shortcut to a cohesive, trustworthy brand identity, without the bigger investment of a full custom package.

If you’re a service-based business that’s just getting off the ground, or you’ve outgrown your Canva logo but aren’t quite ready for custom branding - a semi-custom kit is your new BFF.

Here’s what makes a brand look pro (even if you’re DIY-ing everything else):

Multiple logo variations (so you’re covered for every platform)
A consistent colour palette that’s not just “whatever looks nice together”
Typography that actually complements your brand vibe
A cohesive, flexible aesthetic that represents your business clearly and confidently

No more mismatched fonts, blurry Instagram icons, or design decisions made at midnight.

From “Not Great” to “No Way That’s Semi-Custom”

Let’s talk glow-ups.

We’ve all seen (or maybe had) that one rushed logo. Mismatched fonts, colours that don’t quite hit, maybe a symbol that felt cute at the time but doesn’t really say anything now. It happens.

But with a semi-custom brand kit, you don’t have to stay stuck with a brand that doesn’t reflect your actual vibe or value.

The Ivy Kit is a great example of what’s possible. Swipe from a basic, forgettable logo to a fresh, modern design that’s cohesive, professional, and ready to turn heads. All without starting from scratch or blowing the budget.

Before: basic text, no clear personality, messy logo, and not exactly confidence-boosting.
After: clean lines, intentional typography, and a vibe that actually matches the business.

You get the transformation without the custom-branding price tag. Kinda magic, right? ✨

Want to see what a semi-custom brand kit can really do? The Ivy Collective Kit is a perfect example. It’s modern, refined, and effortlessly stylish, ideal for businesses that want to look elevated without feeling over designed. Clean typography, a cool-toned palette, and flexible logo variations make it feel high-end and approachable. Proof that you don’t need a full custom package to look like a total pro.
