Lesson Overview

Clear, memorable branding can set businesses apart, but custom visuals often require design expertise or significant costs. This lesson focuses on how Nano Banana streamlines the creation of business-ready logos, branded icons, and product photos—no graphic designer required. You’ll learn how to take a rough hand-drawn sketch, upload it, and prompt Nano Banana to clean it up into a crisp, modern logo. Customization is flexible, allowing you to adjust colors to fit your branding and request multiple variations for different presentation needs.

You’ll also discover how to make visually consistent icon sets for apps, websites, or presentations. These icons easily adapt to your branding preferences by following simple prompt instructions. The lesson then shows how to instantly produce photo-realistic product shots and branded mockups, from mugs to t-shirts to boxes, using just a base photo and clear prompts about placement and lighting. This approach is especially helpful for teams needing visuals for social posts, online shops, or investor decks—without time-consuming photoshoots or manual image editing.

Who This Is For

Creating brand assets with Nano Banana helps save time and cost, especially if you need professional visuals quickly. This lesson is well suited for:

• Small business owners seeking DIY branding materials
• Marketers producing branded content or product ads
• E-commerce sellers needing product visuals and packaging mockups
• Startup teams preparing investor presentations
• Content creators who want cohesive, personalized graphics
• Anyone looking to refresh their branding without hiring a designer

Where This Fits in a Workflow

The ability to quickly produce and update branded assets fits naturally in a content creation, marketing, or product launch workflow. You’ll often need a clean logo or product shot before your business or campaign is public, and Nano Banana lets you move from rough idea to refined image in minutes.

For example, you can turn a paper logo sketch into a ready-for-web graphic, then mock it up on merch or packaging for your shop or pitch deck. When you’re building a website or launch page, matching icon sets and product images help everything feel professional and unified—setting you up for more effective campaigns and confident launches.

## Technical & Workflow Benefits

Traditionally, producing a logo, icon set, or branded product photo required using complex graphic design software, hiring freelancers, or even organizing a photoshoot. That process can be expensive and slow to iterate. With Nano Banana, you can upload a sketch or simple product photo and instantly generate a variety of styles and branded visuals in just a few prompts.

For product-based businesses, this method skips days of back-and-forth edits or the logistics of getting photography just right. Marketers benefit by quickly A/B testing logo or icon styles and updating mockups as messaging changes. Visual consistency is easier to maintain because Nano Banana’s prompts keep colors, proportions, and branding unified across all assets. Whether you’re working solo or as part of a team, these gains add up to higher-quality visuals and faster output for sites, stores, presentations, and campaigns.

Practice Exercise

Try applying these techniques to materials for a business, side project, or personal brand:

1. Sketch a new logo idea on paper or tablet—take a clear photo or screenshot. Upload it to Nano Banana and prompt it to “turn this sketch into a clean, modern logo in black and white.”
2. Once you have a digital version, try a follow-up prompt to add brand colors (e.g., “add blue and silver to this logo, keep it bold”).
3. Upload a simple product photo, like a plain mug or a t-shirt image. Prompt Nano Banana to place your new logo on the item, specifying position and color.

Reflection: Compare your new mockup to your original sketch and product shot. How much did Nano Banana improve the professional look? What could you try next to fit your brand even better?
