Setting Up Your Brand in ActiveDEMAND

The brand is one of the most important assets you have in AD as it consolidates the stylistic elements of the account as well as your logo's tag lines etc.

When an account is created in ActiveDEMAND, it sets up the basics of a brand. If you have included your domain name or URL in the account setup, ActiveDEMAND will automate the process of pulling in your logos, estimating some of the colors, etc.
