3 Welcome to our brand Our vision is to be the provider of blood services for New Zealand, recognised for excellence in meeting the needs of donors, patients, our staff and the wider healthcare community. And you may be surprised to learn that our brand is key to achieving that aim. Just think about how many times you see our brand. on TV, on posters, on the internet, on our donor vehicles and in our donor centres. But our brand is more than just a logo or a colour. Our brand is an idea that lives in people s minds. Our brand is what donors and recipients think and feel about us when they see our TV ad; when they read William Pike s motivating story on our recruitment poster; when they see the blood donation information we give them; when they go online to make an appointment; and even the smile and thank-you we give them as they go out the door after donating. Consistency is key. When all the different aspects of a person s contact with us are consistent, it makes it very easy for that person to form a positive, lasting impression about the New Zealand Blood Service in their own minds. This is what will help us achieve our vision. You can help. As part of the New Zealand Blood Service experience, we all have the power to build our brand by being careful to make sure every interaction tells the same story. We ve created this Brand Manual to help. Enclosed are some rules to be followed to ensure we maintain consistency when producing materials featuring our brand. These are the broad rules around our brand that need to be followed to the letter. (They will be reviewed on an ongoing basis, so if you have suggestions please let the Marketing team know.) Thank you for your support in helping us achieve our vision for the New Zealand Blood Service. Sam Cliffe Chief Executive, New Zealand Blood Service
