The corporate identity is what differentiates every company. It may be just a word or a picture, but it is not a simple matter. Creating a company identity is a dynamic process. It shows who the company is, what it wants to become, how it wants others to see it, what the customer expects from it. It is the perception, the impression that customers have about the products and services produced by the company. The identity can be conveyed by the images and the message of an advertisement, the packaging of the product that will make the consumer choose it, the promise of quality that accompanies the product, the description that will be read in the online store by a potential buyer. But it is also the comments that customers will exchange with each other on social media, ratings and preferences.
