How to use this template (delete this box when you're done)

  1. Replace the [bracketed] text and the example rows with your own brand. Start with Logo and Color; they get used most.
  2. Add your logo files, fonts and templates to Downloads, as links or in the Files column.
  3. To share it with agencies and partners, publish it with Sotion: your own domain, open to everyone or behind a password. </aside>
