Because honestly, we could all use a dose of Vitamin Sea, am I right? 🌊💙 But before you grab your beach towel, let’s talk brand colors—because choosing the right hues isn’t just about looking pretty; it’s about making an impact (and, ideally, not making people’s eyes bleed). And yes, your brand colors *should* be documented in your brand guide. We’re not just talking about slapping a logo on everything. ## **Why Brand Colors Matter** Your brand colors set the tone (pun intended). They influence how people perceive you, recognize you, and even *feel* about your brand. Ever noticed how certain brands just *feel* trustworthy, exciting, or luxurious at a glance? That’s color psychology in action. Here’s a cheat sheet on color meanings and their branding superpowers: | **Primary Color** | **What It Says About You** | **Related Tertiary Colors** | | --- | --- | --- | | 🔵 **Blue** | Trust, Stability, Calm | Teal, Navy, Sky Blue | | 🔴 **Red** | Energy, Passion, Urgency | Maroon, Coral, Burgundy | | 🟡 **Yellow** | Optimism, Warmth, Cheer | Gold, Mustard, Amber | | 🟢 **Green** | Growth, Health, Wealth | Mint, Olive, Emerald | | 🟣 **Purple** | Creativity, Royalty, Luxury | Lavender, Plum, Magenta | | ⚫ **Black** | Sophistication, Power, Elegance | Charcoal, Graphite, Jet Black | ## **Mixing It Up** Once you've picked your primary brand color, the next step is creating a balanced palette. That includes: - **Primary Colors:** Your signature hues—front and center in your branding. - **Secondary Colors:** Supporting players that complement your primary colors. - **Accent Colors:** Used sparingly for emphasis (think buttons, highlights, and *pop* moments). ## **Brand Color in Action** Let’s play a game. Think of a major brand and the first color that pops into your head. - **Coca-Cola?** Red. - **Starbucks?** Green. - **McDonald's?** Yellow. Boom. 🎤 That’s the power of brand color consistency. So, what’s your brand’s vibe? Are you a bold, energetic red, a calm and collected blue, or a luxe and mysterious black? Whatever your palette, make it intentional, make it consistent, and make it *memorable*. Thanks for joining me on this little trip down **Vitamin Sea memory lane**. 🌊 Now, if you’ll excuse me, I am going back to enjoying my ocean photos since I can’t be there in person.💙#NoFilters ![50 shades of blue brand colors blog](https://www.tlsbrandwagon.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202025-02-16%20at%203.02.04%20PM.png?width=1026&height=740&name=Screenshot%202025-02-16%20at%203.02.04%20PM.png) ![Screenshot 2025-02-16 at 3.02.35 PM](https://www.tlsbrandwagon.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202025-02-16%20at%203.02.35%20PM.png?width=932&height=860&name=Screenshot%202025-02-16%20at%203.02.35%20PM.png)   [#BrandColors](https://www.tlsbrandwagon.com/blog/tag/brandcolors), [#NoFilters](https://www.tlsbrandwagon.com/blog/tag/nofilters) ## Related posts [![](https://www.tlsbrandwagon.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Brand%20Wagon%20Blog%20The%2012th%20Man%20Brand.png?height=200&name=Brand%20Wagon%20Blog%20The%2012th%20Man%20Brand.png)](https://www.tlsbrandwagon.com/blog/the-12th-man-brand) ## [The 12th Man Brand](https://www.tlsbrandwagon.com/blog/the-12th-man-brand) ![Picture of TLS Brand Wagon](https://www.tlsbrandwagon.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202024-05-09%20at%201.58.33%20PM.png?width=50&name=Screenshot%202024-05-09%20at%201.58.33%20PM.png) [TLS Brand Wagon](https://www.tlsbrandwagon.com/blog/author/tls-brand-wagon) Dec 15, 2024, 4:37:50 PM First, can we pause for a moment?
