Why Do I Need a Brand?

In this episode I and Brand expert,Kim Speed dig deep into the question why do I need a brand. Everyone says having a brand is critical for success. But is it? What is the fundamental value a BRAND provides you and your company? How does a brand make it easier for me to acquire new customers and prospects?

Brand vs Branding

According to Kim, your brand is who you are and what people say about you when you're not in the room. Branding is all the elements that supports your brand: website, ads, emails, logos etc… Let's focus on the former, before the latter.

Sales and Branding

Your brand is useful for your sales process. When done well it open doors and creates trust. But it's not an easy path to understand your brand. It's built on knowing and viscerally understanding your ideal client. This requires companies to go through a value proposition process. Instead of focusing on logos and fonts, focus on who is PERFECT for you product or service.
