Ragged Edge recently crafted an innovative brand positioning for insurance company Zego, brought to life through a new logo, visual identity and tone of voice. The brand sets out to redefine how people think about insurance, providing flexible by-the-hour cover for the gig economy.
"Where other insurance companies combine confusing policies with inflexible products, Zego takes a people-first approach," explained Max Ottignon, Co-Founder, Ragged Edge. "They came to us to create an innovative brand aimed at people who choose how, where, and when they work.
"Our market research, workshops and interviews revealed an organisation full of integrity, so we set out to shake up an industry often associated with blandness and negativity by injecting positivity and possibility. We wanted Zego customers to 'Go freely'."
Ragged Edge brought the 'Go freely' brand idea to life through a scalable identity, designed to stand apart from the rest of the category. For the word mark, the agency removed any excess, leaving exactly what was needed; a reflection of the insurance product itself. It also features an on-off symbol subtly incorporated into the 'G.'
The principle of the logo was applied to a dynamic visual language, with a vibrant colour palette that contrasts against the category's corporate blues and oranges. Ragged Edge also gave guidance over how Zego should speak to their customers, helping them deliver their messages to diverse audiences.
