Questions landscapers ask

I already have a name and logo. Do I have to start again?

No. You can renovate what you've got. Smoko starts from your current name, logo and colours. It keeps what customers already recognise and only suggests changes where they help.

I'm not a designer. Will I know what to say?

Yes. The lessons show what good looks like, and Smoko asks you simple questions about your business. You answer in your own words and Smoko drafts the design and writing for you to check.

What is a brand bible, and what do I do with it?

It's one document with your logo, colours, fonts, voice, mission and values, plus the rules for using them. Hand it to your sign writer, printer, web person or new crew so everything matches.

Can I change things after I approve?

Yes. Smoko shows you every draft first and nothing is final until you approve it. If the business changes later, ask Smoko for an update in plain words and approve the new version.
