1. Less than 10% of companies consider their own branding consistent

2. Businesses who do have consistent branding make 23% more in revenue

3. Color improves brand recognition by 80%

Let’s go over them in more detail one by one.

How to Add Your Logo to an involve.me Template

Many involve.me templates already come with logo placeholders. All you have to do if that’s your case is swap the placeholder, with your logo.

While in the editor, click the placeholder logo. It will open the image element editor where you can upload your logo.

If the template you're using doesn't come with a logo placeholder, simply drag and drop an image content element into it. You can place your logo there and continue editing it the same way as a placeholder.

Once your logo’s there, here’s what you can do with it further:

1. Making your logo clickable by adding a link

2. Adjusting the size of your logo by sliding the image slider

3. Giving a shape to your logo - you can make it circular or squared

4. Setting your logo to full width - this means the image will always fill the content card with on any device

How to Change involve.me Template Colors into Your Brand Colors

Implementing your brand colors into an involve.me template is quick, but impactful. You can do so by clicking the edit icon in the top right corner of the editor.

This will take you to General Project Design, which controls the look of your entire project. If you just want to change the colors on one individual element, click the element, go to Design and tick “Customize this element only”.

Once there, copy-paste your brand color code into the color pickers in Colours & Style. Your changes will save automatically.

How to Make Any involve.me Content Transparent for Seamless Embedding

Embeds can be bold design statements and you can have a lot of fun with them. But sometimes you just want a quick form or survey that blends in with the rest of your website like a lead gen ninja.

Here’s how you make a transparent background embed:

1. Click the edit icon in the top right corner of the editor

2. In General Project Design, scroll down to “Colors & Style”

3. In the Background color picker, slide the transparency slider all the way left

How to Redirect involve.me Traffic to Your Website

Now that your project looks like it belongs on your website, let’s redirect some traffic there. Redirecting people who complete your project to your website or social media is a great way to keep them interacting with your brand and move further down your funnel at their own pace.

There are two ways to redirect involve.me traffic to your website:

1. Replacing the final page with a link

2. Adding a button with a link to your website on the final page

To replace the final page of your project with a custom URL redirect, click the edit icon of the final page and copy-paste your link there.

To add a button with a link to your website on the final page, drag & drop a button element into the final page of your project. Click the button and choose where you’d like it to link.

Creating and maintaining a strong visual brand identity does have an impact on sales. It’s easy to forget how much it matters when you’re spending your day on keyword research, traffic splits and payment attribution.

These tweaks take seconds to make and they’ll likely be the most impactful few seconds of your day.
