Adding your company branding

Your company branding is one of the most important parts of creating a successful employee store.

A well-branded store helps employees immediately recognize the experience as an extension of your company while creating consistency across merchandise, onboarding programs, uniforms, recognition initiatives, and employee gifting.

Launch makes it easy to incorporate your company's branding throughout the store setup process.

Branding impacts the employee experience

Company merchandise often becomes one of the most visible representations of your brand.

Whether employees are ordering apparel, drinkware, bags, gifts, or onboarding merchandise, consistent branding helps create a more professional and polished experience.

Strong branding also helps:

  • Improve merchandise consistency
  • Reduce artwork questions and revisions
  • Simplify future product additions
  • Maintain brand standards across departments
  • Create a more cohesive employee experience

The more organized your branding assets are during setup, the easier it becomes to manage your store over time.

Prepare your branding assets

Before building your store, we recommend gathering all approved branding materials in one location.

This may include:

  • Logo files
  • Brand guidelines
  • Approved color references
  • Pantone colors
  • Alternate logo variations
  • Usage requirements or restrictions

Having these assets available early can help streamline product customization and merchandise approvals later in the setup process.

Your branding can evolve over time

Many companies start with a single logo and gradually expand their branding library as their merchandise program grows.

Launch allows administrators to update branding assets, add additional logos, and refine merchandise assortments as company needs change.

This flexibility makes it easy to support multiple departments, office locations, subsidiaries, or employee programs from a single platform.

Best practices

  • Gather approved branding assets before customizing products
  • Upload both light and dark logo variations when available
  • Include Pantone color references for important brand colors
  • Maintain consistency across merchandise categories
  • Review branding periodically as your merchandise program evolves
