This presentation talks about how you can get an exclusive mandate while you are looking to sell a property. Exclusive Mandate is a very effective way to do real estate transactions and should be practiced by all real estate agents.
The advertisers lack knowledge of ethical norms and principles. They just don’t understand and are unable to decide what is correct and what is wrong.
The main area of interest for advertisers is to increase their sales, gain more and more customers, and increase the demand for the product by presenting a well decorated, puffed and colorful ad. They claim that their product is the best, having unique qualities than the competitors, more cost effective, and more beneficial. But most of these ads are found to be false, misleading customers and unethical. The best example of these types of ads is the one which shows evening snacks for the kids, they use coloring and gluing to make the product look glossy and attractive to the consumers who are watching the ads on television and convince them to buy the product without giving a second thought.

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.

Transforming Brand Perception and Boosting Profitabilityaaryangarg12
In today's digital era, the dynamics of brand perception, consumer behavior, and profitability have been profoundly reshaped by the synergy of branding, social media, and website design. This research paper investigates the transformative power of these elements in influencing how individuals perceive brands and products and how this transformation can be harnessed to drive sales and profitability for businesses.
Through an exploration of brand psychology and consumer behavior, this study sheds light on the intricate ways in which effective branding strategies, strategic social media engagement, and user-centric website design contribute to altering consumers' perceptions. We delve into the principles that underlie successful brand transformations, examining how visual identity, messaging, and storytelling can captivate and resonate with target audiences.
Methodologically, this research employs a comprehensive approach, combining qualitative and quantitative analyses. Real-world case studies illustrate the impact of branding, social media campaigns, and website redesigns on consumer perception, sales figures, and profitability. We assess the various metrics, including brand awareness, customer engagement, conversion rates, and revenue growth, to measure the effectiveness of these strategies.
The results underscore the pivotal role of cohesive branding, social media influence, and website usability in shaping positive brand perceptions, influencing consumer decisions, and ultimately bolstering sales and profitability. This paper provides actionable insights and strategic recommendations for businesses seeking to leverage branding, social media, and website design as potent tools to enhance their market position and financial success.
2. Over the course of this document, you will be
introduced to all of the elements that make up the
eXp Realty brand – including our logo, typography,
color palettes and image styles. Together, these
elements will help us create a strong and consistent
brand identity in everything we do. If you have any
questions about these guidelines, please contact
marketing@exprealty.net.
Welcome to our brand
guidelines.

4. COMPANY LOGO
Our logo is a unique, easily recognizable
mark of who we are as a brand. A clean
and modern design, it was developed in
conjunction with our agents, delivering a
strong graphic statement that emphasizes
our brand values.
4
5. BEHIND THE LOGO
The eXp name comes from eXp
World Holdings Founder and CEO
Glenn Sanford and other eXp leaders
when they started the company in
2009.
It was selected as a prefix for words
that signal success and represent
the experience we create for our
agents. These positive words support
eXp Realty’s core values of integrity,
community, service, sustainability,
collaboration, innovation, being agile
and lastly, fun! The bold, thick typography conveys our strength and resilience as a
business and the solidity of our platform for the success of our people.
The X mark with the ascending line represents our rapid and exponential
growth as a global organization, the trajectory of our company and our agents.
At the same time, the disconnected piece of the X looks as if it is a
packet of data flowing into our brand, representing our digital platform.
Lastly, the X can also be seen as a celebratory person, with
the disconnected piece forming a head and the extending
line becoming an arm raised in triumph.

The logo similarly represents
our values and promises to our
agents:
7. LEGIBILITY
Our logo should never be too small to
read. We’ve set a minimum size of 0.8
inches or 60 pixels. Based on the standard
range, the recommended sizes are shown
here. There should be enough clear space
at the top of the logo to allow for this in
print or online applications. It is not
recommended to use
the logo at less than 0.8 inches in width.
Take into account that the icon is not the
brand logo and should never replace the
main eXp logo.

8. CLEAR SPACE
We’ve defined a minimum exclusion
zone that stops other graphic elements
interfering with the eXp logotype and
ensures that our logo is easy to read.
The size of the exclusion zone should
be at the height and width of the letter
“e” as shown on the right.
Proportions, space and size
relationships of all blocks must not
be altered, redrawn, embellished or
recreated in any way. An important
part of maintaining a consistent
presentation is keeping a clear
space around the logo from other
text, graphics or illustrations.

9. INCORRECT USAGE
The logo must be used as is and not be
altered in any way. This means that you
MUST NOT:
Change the logo’s orientation or rotation.
Disproportionately scale the logo.
Change the logo’s colors.
Display the logo in a configuration
not previously specified.
Attempt to recreate the logo.
Make alterations to the logo’s text.
Add special effects to the logo.
Display the logo as an outline.
Display other elements within the
logo’s designated clear space.
Crop or stretch the logo in any way.

13. IMAGERY &
LOGO
PLACEMENT
Care must be taken to create well-balanced
and considered compositions. When placing
the logo over photography, choose a light- or
solid-colored area to ensure the logo does not
get lost in the background.
Use pattern to make the imagery more ownable
Ensure the logo is legible and has a clean
background
Place the logo over a uniform background
Don’t overlay the brand pattern over people
Don’t place the logo on busy backgrounds
Don’t place the logo in random places within the layout 13

The primary color palette is a very important
brand element as it helps to tie in all the
elements, assets and templates.
All eXp assets should feel part of the same
identity and therefore must have a coherent color
treatment.
Brand Blue
Clear and reassuring, this is our main color. It
can be seen in the logo and in all eXp assets,
and drives brand recognition and cohesion.
Brand Orange
Vibrant and dynamic, the new brand orange is
our action color. It is meant to draw attention to
the most important UI elements, such as buttons,
as well as tasteful accents in the brand pattern.
Black
For optimum text legibility and contrast on white
and light backgrounds we use black.
White
In the same way, on full color or
dark backgrounds we use white text.

PATTER

The brand pattern is the mark of our brand. It has the
sole purpose of making our assets and imagery more
ownable, sophisticated and polished. It is comprised
of different sections of the “X” in the logo and is
meant to convey growth, positivity and a forward-
looking mindset by extending the upper right “arm.”
For flexibility, we have the choice of a “single X
pattern” as well as a “multiple X pattern.” Only
one pattern should be used on any created asset
at a time — never a combination of both.
Download the brand patterns here.

Spacing
Single X Pattern: There must be clear space
between the pattern and text to keep the text
legible. On the single X pattern, this is measured by
taking 50% of the width of one X arm, as defined in
the diagram to the right. When full color is used, the
pattern should never overlap text.
Multiple X Pattern: On the multiple X pattern,
clear space is measured by taking 50% of one full
X width. When full color is used, the pattern
should never overlap text. The spacing between
each ‘X’ within the pattern should not be altered
from the files provided.

Single X Pattern: Approximately 20% of the
'X' should be cropped off the edge of the
asset, ensuring the full ‘X’ is not visible.
Multiple X Pattern: The multiple X pattern
should take up approximately 20–30% of the total
design template, and should be approximately
the same size as the ‘X’ in the eXp logo being
utilized in the design. This pattern should have at
least two full visible ‘X’s’ with the rest of the
pattern cropped off the edge of the design.

21. Color
Acceptable colors are all white, all black, all
blue, or blue with one orange X.
On print assets (i.e., flyers, yard signs), full
color should be used with no transparency.
When using digital assets over imagery, always
make sure to use less than 20% transparency in
order to allow the background to be seen through
it. Optionally, different blending modes can be
used (Screen, Overlay, Multiply) depending on
context. If in doubt, please seek guidance and
approval from our creative team at:
