Project justification

 (Dowling, 2001), states the prime roles of identity are to trigger recognition of the organization, create awareness and stimulate an already stored image of the organization. According to Schmitt and Simonson (1997) increased loyalty, productivity, cost savings, premium pricing, protection from competition and the ability to cut through information clutter are the tangible benefits of identity. Image is seen as a reflection of corporate identity. Image, according to many researchers is described as being in the eye of the beholder, i.e. it is in people's minds. Dowling (2001) defines image as "the set of meanings by which an object is known and through which people describe, remember and relate to it". That is the result of a parson's beliefs, ideas, feelings and impressions about an object." Marken (1994/95) describes image as the perceived sum of the whole organization, its plans and objectives. It encompasses services, products, communications activities, management style and actions around the world.

Dowling (2001) explains that a good corporate identity can affect corporate image in two ways. People recognize the organization and make the association between the organization and its identity. According to Dowling (2001), corporate image has a cognitive or logical feature and an emotional feature. These logical and cognitive features together shape in general corporate image. According to (Balmer and Gray, 1999) good corporate image can be achieved by the advertising of the corporate identity through a corporate strategy based on primary communication highlighting the product / service performance. An understanding of all stakeholders
