Colors affect people’s moods in a lot of different ways. This is a concept that can be traced all the way back to the initial days of marketing and continues to be one of the primary concepts used in branding today.

A buyer’s mood is the biggest factor in whether they will make a purchase or not, and this is the reason color theory has such a significant role in brand identity design.

Even their slogan is, “What can brown do for you.” This simple concept of an otherwise seemingly plain color expresses everything that UPS stands for and promotes the right mood. This will be discussed in more detail later in the post. For now, it’s important to understand that color philosophy must be one of the defining factors in a branding strategy.
