2020 marks a landmark year!

Posted by Lauren Austin on 16th March 2020

Old ways don‘t open new doors! VI reaches a landmark year, 2020 marks our willingness to change and adapt.

2020 Anniversary for Visual Identity, the celebration of 30 years in business. During our time in the Marketing industry, VI has remained at the forefront of specialist branding and digital services. We have done this by embracing new technologies and continuously learning. 

Since November 1989, Visual Identity has been delivering design, print and digital services to a range of client sectors. These include education, recruitment, industrial and retail markets. We have seen continued growth and diversification, our product portfolio now boasts a range of digital services and specialist design services. 

Passion for all things creative

Jacqui Newham (Wilkins), Managing Director (bombshell in the black and white shot below!) – still plays an integral role in the business. Her passion for all things marketing is paramount to VI‘s continued success. “Our business is one that the team is immensely proud of. We continue to work with our customers to develop strong brands and innovative communications. At Visual Identity, we stay ahead for our clients and consistently exceed their expectations!

“Especially in the early days, we recognised that it is all too easy just to concentrate on the day-to-day running of the business. We tended to focus on just getting the next job rather than thinking about our vision for the business. But it must be said that once we were up and running, we understood that it paid dividends to think about longer-term and more strategic planning. Adopting a simple planning cycle has greatly enhanced our ability to make changes in the business. We attribute our ability to anticipate problems and adapt to change easily, as the main reason why we have successfully traded for over 30 years and made it look easy to transition from just traditional to state-of-the-art digital.”

“At Vi everyone pulls together, excels professionally and has fun – which translates into amazing customer relations and magical results.

VI‘s home is Milton Keynes

From our office in MK, Visual Identity delivers world-leading technologies. We serve a national customer base and strengthen our work through a growing network of international partners. 

After 30 years, you might think VI has seen and heard it all – but that’s not the case. Keen to constantly evolve and try something new. VI has adopted new, young, talented. Most importantly, they challenge us by working with our experienced directors to move the business forward. This creates exciting new business opportunities.

Recent key successes have been reconnecting with old clients of ours. We‘re now offering a variety of services to these businesses. This includes multiple bespoke website projects, which will launch in the coming months. A growing area in the industry, and for VI is, of course, Social Media management and digital development.

2020 marks a landmark year

Celebrations continue throughout 2020, with more award ceremonies to attend and hopefully new awards to add to the trophy wall! We are all incredibly proud of what has been achieved so far. We remain excited by the enormous potential for our future.

2020 marks a landmark year. Who said old dogs can‘t learn new tricks? Here‘s to the next 30!
