Supporting document: Branding Plan

Exodus is a well-known and respected brand in adventure travel and we have a reputation for

providing excellent holidays and experiences.

To build on this reputation effectively we need to ensure that this brand awareness carries through all the way from advertising to brochures and most importantly to the holiday itself. We therefore require support from our local partners to ensure our branding requirements are met overseas.

Our Brand

Our logo colour has changed

When organising Exodus branded items please use this document as reference to ensure all overseas branding is in line with these changes.

The below versions of the new logo are applicable for use overseas:

“e” symbol Logotype

Brand Identity

“e” symbol Logotype

Brand Identity

Descriptor line

Logo choice

The stacked logo should be used as default. The horizontal logo should only be used where the shape of the space makes it the best fit – e.g. on a branded pen, or along the arm of a long sleeved top.The logo should always be used with a descriptor line (see below) unless it is in media Exodus Travel “owns” e.g. our brochures and website. Anywhere that the logo could initially, or subsequently, be out of an Exodus Travels owned space, the descriptor line is required.

Descriptor lines

Usually the descriptor line will consist of three words chosen to give context to our brand, depending on where the logo is being used. It is important to consider what it is about our company or product offering that will matter most to the people seeing the logo in that context..

Exodus Travels Logo: Explanation


Discontinued logos

The old green logo should not feature on any item - including paperwork and clothing.

Branding requirements for Exodus Trips

All Exodus trips must have the following items:

1. Exodus Polo shirt for the leader To be worn for the airport meet and greet, for the rest of the first day and at the main briefing.

3. Exodus leader welcome notice Displayed at the joining hotel, contains information for those joining the group locally. Part of the Standard Leader Paperwork, download template from www.exodus.co.uk/leaders

Branding optionsThere are two ways to source your branded items:

OPTION 2

Ordering via Exodus Operational Quality Department

If you find that producing items locally is not viable, please get in touch with Exodus to discuss the option of items being supplied by Exodus’ stock.

Costs & PostageBranded items and unit costs supplied by Exodus can be found on page 8. We will normally provide these to you at the cost price shown

Confirming your branding options

• Each operator should complete the branding plan (supporting documents) This will help us provide you with the resources you need and help us keep track of what has been agreed with each operator.

• For all branding plan queries please email [email protected]

OPTION 1

Producing items locally

Operators can work with a local printing shop to produce your items using artwork and templates provided by Exodus. There are many advantages of this method such as:

• All items can be designed and tailored to your own preferences, so considerations such as climate for clothing and vehicle size for signs can be taken into account.

• It should be cheaper. Depending on your country, you may be able to access cheaper items than we can get in the UK. Also, in all cases, we will cover 50% of your local production costs.

• It should reach you quicker due to time delays associated with shipping from the UK. We sometimes have customs problems when posting overseas.

• The benefit of supporting businesses in your local area.

Cost & Subsidies for locally produced items Exodus will contribute 50% of the cost when items are produced locally. In order to receive the subsidy you need to:

1. Confirm your local branding plan with Exodus Operational Quality prior to ordering. This must include an accurate quote and mock-up of designs, so we can be sure all items are suitable and the correct artwork has been used.

2. Produce items with your local supplier, distribute accordingly and send us images of them in use on the ground.

3. Send your branding invoice to the Exodus Operational Quality team at [email protected] for the subsidy to be processed.
