  where to start....

  At it's basic level an 'identity' serves to let a consumer/customer/complete stranger know WHO's trying to communicate something to them.

  A 'brand' typically embraces much broader concepts - that includethe identity - surrounding the CULTURE of the organization.

  "Identity" is the mark and application of the mark for an entity. Branding is the persona and extension of the entity's identity into the marketplace.

  maybe a little better yet...

  identity = facade representative of values of the organization

  brand = emotional and cultural connection a person experiences with an organization

  • id = what you see
    brand = quality of things surrounding– doesnotexist

  For my money, corporate identity was about providing a logo and defining a basic toolkit for the identity to represent the company in a uniform way.

  Branding became about expressing more of a companies desired personality with a consistent tone of voice (visual, verbal and written) in order to create a seamless bridge between the look of the company and the long term manner of its marketing.

  Corp Id is what designers create to represent the company.

  Branding is what customers think of the company.

  'Brand Identity' is a term created by corporate identity consultants to legitimise the transition from 'corporate identity consultancy' to 'branding consultancy' without making it look like they've gone in a completely new direction.

  A 'brand identity' would probably consist of the corporate identity aspects of the brand.

  I think branding is the name that the old advertising agencies developed to steal from the design studies design processes.
  It seems that branding is the soul and the IC the body ...

  Branding involves research and strategy, developing the tone for the entire brand experience, the applying it to key touchpoints. Corporate Identity is how the organization looks, the consistent visual theme you give an organization.

  BTW, you need this book.
