PriceRunner

We were tasked to refresh the PriceRunner digital brand, making the brand more exuberant, transparent and straightforward to customers. The consumer is untrusting of shopping comparison sites and Pricerunner’s unique positioning has been defined as “The shoppers champion” – The identity needed to adapt to reflect these values.

Firedog refined the brand to highlight the brand’s human nature and make PriceRunner feel more modern and trustworthy to the consumer. Increasing brand awareness was a key objective in the brand positioning exercise. One challenge was to refresh the brand without moving too far away from the blue and yellow colour scheme (A reflection of the Swedish heritage) and the existing runner character, as not to alienate the sites 1.4 million unique visitors per month already aware of the brand.

We created the revised logo with a fresh and contemporary aesthetic. We reflected a new sense of exuberance, while keeping the character at the heart of the logo. In addition, we have been responsible for extending the digital branding into the sites style sheets and templates. The PriceRunner brand refresh launched in late November 2011 and has received great feedback. The branding looks energised and miles away from the original dated look and feel. Firedog continues to work with Pricerunner on video idents, animation and other marketing assets.
