Simon's topic breakdown:
Approachable Authority
In this modern, noisy online world, it's more important than ever to speak directly to your core market in a language they understand and which draws them towards you.
Regardless of any other messaging concerns within the brand identity design sphere, every brand needs to project 'approachable authority'. That essential combination of attraction and confidence building which will convince your potential client that you're the people to speak to.

Simon Glenn wears 2 hats these days.
