How to Create a Brand Board

This article will show you how to create a Brand Board in Enrollio! A Brand Board helps you store and organize your center's logos, color palette, and fonts so you can apply consistent branding across emails, enrollment pages, websites, and more.

You can create a Brand Board from scratch or by using one of the available templates.

What is a Brand Board?

A Brand Board in Enrollio is a centralized space where you define and manage your childcare center's visual identity. Each Brand Board contains a Design Kit that includes your logos, brand colors, and typography choices.

Once set up, these assets can be easily applied across various parts of your account for a cohesive brand look—from parent emails to tour confirmation pages.

Key Benefits of Brand Boards

Brand Consistency

A Brand Board keeps all your visual elements in one place, so you use the same logo, colors, and fonts everywhere. This helps ensure your center's brand looks the same whether it's on your enrollment site, in your parent emails, or on social media.

Time Efficiency

Instead of hunting for your logo files or trying to remember your brand's color codes, a Brand Board lets you access everything quickly. This makes creating new marketing materials faster and simpler.

Easy Management

Managing your center's visual elements is a breeze with a Brand Board. You can quickly find and use your logos, colors, and fonts, making sure everything stays consistent and on-brand.
