OUR BRAND | ARCHITECTURE

A Brand Is More Than A Logo Together our brand identity and strategy defines what Thryv stands for, a promise we make, and the
personality we convey. And while it includes our logo, color palette and slogan, those are only creative
elements that convey our brand. In order to maintain a strong brand, it is important to look past just a
logo and name. Who we are, what we do, how we do it, why we do it, our reasons to believe and how
we talk all play an integral role in creating a comprehensive understanding of the Thryv brand and
identity. Our brand lives in every day-to-day interaction we have with our clients and prospects. Our
brand strategy is the essence of how we represent ourselves.
Our PurposeSmall business owners struggle with the daily demands of running their business. At Thryv, we created
simple software to help them manage their time, communicate with clients, and get paid, so they can
take control of their business and be more successful.

Our ClientsToday, local businesses have fallen behind in technology,
especially mobile. They’re still relying on paper and
outdated tools. The large, tech-savvy, national chains are
winning and the local businesses that can’t adapt could
lose their businesses even though their products and
services are competitive and maybe even superior.

LeadingLeading describes the vertical space between each line of type. For legible body text that’s comfortable to read, make sure your leading value is greater than the font size; anywhere from 5-8 pts.
KerningKerning describes the act of adjusting the space between characters to create a harmonious pairing. For example, some letter combinations require the kerning to be increased or decreased.
Tracking Relates to the spacing of all characters and is applied evenly. The space between characters can be tightened to some degree and not be set more than -20. Be sure to put a minus value in for letter tracking depending on the type size, especially large type.
Text Wrapping (Hyphenation)Do not use hyphens to split words onto two lines, even compound modifiers that require a hyphen. Instead, soft return the entire word or term to the next line.

Headlines Should be set in Open Sans Regular for better legibility. They should be left-or center-aligned. When appropriate Open Sans Light can be used sparingly for shorter headlines in large scale. Capitalization should be initial caps only.
Main Subheads The main subhead immediately follows the head-line, if clarification is required. Bold, all caps may be used but must be substantially smaller than the headline text size.
Body Subheads Subheads introducing the next section of body copy should be bolded and slightly larger point size than the body copy it introduces. A separate color may be utilized if emphasis is required.
Body Copy Should be Open Sans Regular. Common sizes for body copy can vary between 9 pt. and 12 pt. but should remain consistent within any par-ticular treatment. Paragraph spacing should be .125–.1875 pt.
Words of Emphasis If utilizing a single-color headline, words of emphasis in headlines can be semibold or bold. Black headlines or white headlines use orange to highlight words of emphasis if the font weight remains consistent.
Within body copy, bolding can be used to highlight a word or phrase. Color should remain consistent throughout body copy.
Emphasis should be limited to one word or phrase in a headline and should be used sparingly within body copy.
Bulleted Lists Bullet size may be the same size as text or slight-ly larger for emphasis. Paragraph lines should left align with the first letter of the paragraph — not the bullet or text box.
Calls-to-action Should be Open Sans Regular, color, sentence case and 4–5 points larger than the body copy. Color may be either used for the entire line or to a single point of emphasis (should be reserved for a single website or phone number).
Mousetype 6–7 pt. Open Sans Regular.
Infographics and Lock-ups Certain graphic arrangements of text may require use of bold, extra bold and/or all caps. These are not considered headlines. In a justified arrangement, sentence case may not be required.

the use of stock photography should be limited. When possible the
use of real client photos, statements, and testimonials should be used
in representing Thryv.
OUR PHOTOGRAPHY | STYLE

Photography
Photography is a key ingredient
in helping our customers identify
with our company. Photos of
Thryv customers should be in the
environment where they interact
with our product. Subjects should be
at ease and happy in their work and
their interaction with our product
and services.
DO NOTUse subjects that seem to be posing or looking into camera and not interacting with product. Also avoid photos with colors that have a sterile tone and feel “stocky.”
DO NOTUse subjects utilizing outdated technology.
OUR PHOTOGRAPHY | OVERLAY
46©2019 Thryv, Inc. All rights reserved.
Overlays
A night overlay may be used over
photography in order to make text
more readable when placed over
complex images.
Using a Night overlay, set the layer
to Multiply at an opacity of 30-70%,
depending on image complexity,
contrast or how readable the text is.
A black-to-white gradient can also be
added to further darken areas beneath
text with layer should be set to Multiply
at an opacity of 60-100%.
DO NOT set overlay opacity too high that it
makes the image illegible.
DO NOT use additional colors to create the overlay.
DO NOT apply a overlay to an image when text is not present.

Brand VoiceCommunication is a very important aspect of any brand. The way
we communicate sets the tone for how our clients feel about us.
Our voice consists of both messaging and tone. These two aspects
come together to create an effective strategy when speaking to our
clients and prospects. Our goal is to create clear and consistent
messaging that reflects our brand personality.
BRAND VOICE | TONE
55©2019 Thryv, Inc. All rights reserved.
Voice The “voice” we use to communicate with clients and prospects is an important part of our brand. The voice and tonality should be consistent and compelling.
Simple We want to keep our solutions, processes and reporting simple and transparent for our clients to understand. We want to refrain from “internal speak or jargon,” using simple sentences. We want to make it easy for businesses to work with us.
Approachable We want clients/prospects to feel as if we are friendly and easy to talk to, so they understand and connect with us.
Collaborative We work with our clients to find out what they want and/or need and take necessary steps to either make decisions for them, or educate them as much as possible.
Purposeful Make sure everything we do and say is intentional. We should put thought into our words and actions, but remember to keep things simple.
Conversational Have a casual dialogue to learn about our clients’ and prospects’ needs. Respond to questions in a helpful, caring way making the person feel at ease.
Telling Our Story Through our story show our clients how their lives will be better by using our products or services. Make the story about them: how they can succeed and fulfill their business goals. Aim to evoke an emotional response when conveying our story.
Give A Call To Action As you tell our story, convey to your clients what we want them to do—call, email, register, get more information, etc. The call to action should be specific, timely and an easy next step.
