What is Branding?
Branding is one the most important assets a company can develop, not only to be recognised for who they are and their products, but also to position itself in the market it serves.
“Branding” is often misunderstood by being simply logo and design – yet these two things make only a tiny part in the overall branding as a full concept. Targeted branding goes far beyond design. It creates direction and builds the foundation of your future business strategy. To be successful, having direction and strategy is imperative to reaching your goals. And let´s put it simply; Our goal in business is to find customers and consumers and – in a best-case scenario – find meaning and fulfilment in our work, our business building a reflection of our ideas and personality.
Now, let´s understand the greatness of branding:
When you start to brand your business, you set the guidelines and tone for your brand as an entity or – as I like to call it- “as a living being”, serving its market. The process of branding is meant to give your business clear direction on who and how it serves its market and customers and where you serve them in which form. Those entrepreneurs who start early in their branding process, are seen to be more likely to have long-term success and ongoing growth in the long run. Branding is not a topic to be rushed through like a business plan and I would argue, that having a solid branding and strategy in place is far more impactful than any business plan could ever be.

Your brand- or company name should tell a lot about you as a brand. If running a personal brand or a company brand makes a difference in how you are being perceived. However, naming a brand in a thoughtful and meaningful way is a key element in your branding strategy.

Your buyer persona also known as “customer avatar” is the definition of who your ideal customer is.

Values, Mission & Vision
The mission & vision of a brand is what defines who the brand is serving, how it serves its customers and what are the values and role it wants to take in creating the future.
If you do a Google search, there are various ways to translate your ideas into that defined piece of statement. Together, we will find what best displays you and your mission.

Colours & Logo
As mentioned above, colours and logo are part of the design elements in branding. working together with creatives and freelancers will ensure, your colour scheme and logo fits your brand strategy and goals. If you work with a designer without integrating the brand strategy, you may find mismatches.
Typography & Iconography
Typography and icons you will repeatedly use in your brand identity should match your strategy, logo and colour design. Having a holistic approach to these elements from the beginning of your brand creation is key to long-term success.

Creating an overall brand strategy will be part of setting your goals and find ways to promote those goals when it comes to your online strategy in terms of your branding.
By setting up a mid-term strategy for you, we will look into the future and how your business should develop in the coming 12 to 24 months. Consequently, from here goes your brand strategy.
Competitor Analysis

Product / Service Analysis
We will analyse your offers and services and shape them to be ready for the online world. Some services need a “touch-up” to be moved from offline to online, but some need a deeper reshaping, so they work in a non-physical environment.

It may be necessary to redefine your niche to move your business online. You are in the right place! We will take care of that.
Diversifying / Offer Extension
As an online entrepreneur, we will differentiate your income streams and recreate what was a former single offer into five or more. This way, we make sure that income is coming in from more than one source to make you bullet-proof no matter what happens.

Communication

Let your persona know that you understand them well. That you know what they are looking for. And how it will serve them to pursue their aspirations and goals. Creating a “brand story script” gives you a heads up of your competitors, as they will scratch their heads, how you stole their market share so fast and easy.
Brand Voice and Tone
When reading through the copy of well-established brands, you will see that they have very specific ways of using words, making jokes, having repetitive word patterns and headlines.
Even icons and such things as “hashtags” (hint hint) can be used to identify a brand. You realised that some brands use an avatar to talk to their customers? They can come in form f a comic, of an animal, language they use and so on. Defining your brand voice and tone is what will help you to be recognised as who you are as a brand.
Slogan & Tagline
Not much to say: you know what a slogan is for. The tagline comes into place when it is about creating your online presence, where the tagline will be used over and over again.
