In this document, we discuss the importance of having a positive team image as well as the (for the most part) small changes our team made last season to allow us to earn the Imagery Award at the Orlando and South Florida Regionals! Feel free to share this link, let us know if you have any feedback, and if the document inspires your team to make any improvements to your team’s image, let us know by tagging us on social media @frcriptide4118. #RiptideRebranding

This is great! Just sent it over to our PR mentor to share with our team!

Great stuff! 3946 has always been pretty decent on the team imagery, but two of the cleanups they’re doing this year are standardizing pants colors, and requiring that the pit shirts be buttonned (IMO, unbuttoned pit shirts are worse for branding than no pit shirts at all). Khaki pants unfortunately, but at least its a standard.

This is AWESOME.

I love how it tells a story while also providing ground rules. Your brand looks totally appropriate for your name and is much more recognizable.

Lots of great lessons here. Many that I have been trying to communicate to my team.

Great document! A lot of thought goes into making the parts of the robot work well together, but a lot of teams don’t think at all about making their branding similarly cohesive. In my time on 423 we made a lot of the mistakes you listed. I am going to share this with them, and I think if they follow the steps you outlined it can really help them gain some name/brand recognition.
