#4Be more specific. "help to develop our brand" could mean advertising, PR, online marketing etc.
I think a good way to communicate this would be to say what you are trying to get out of this service.

#5By branding do you mean for your parent company or for the specific app? For example the branding for Microsoft is a different type of project than say branding Office. And by branding are you thinking on a big scale (everything from coming up with the name to the marketing) or on a small scale (i.e. an icon for an app)?
My advice to you as a designer is that you should start small, take baby steps and keep your budget low. I'd also advise you to work with a local designer (if you can find a good one) who can meet with you face to face.
By the way I did a quick google search and found this studio after some hunting: http://www.holbeinruiz.com

I'm talking about something like Twitter, in which the product and the company share the same brand.
That's a really good question, I think I'm talking about the whole brand, including the name and marketing.
Thanks for the link :)

You are right, we are staring a new webapp and we need a name, logo, maybe a little brand manual, and some makering insights.
