Understanding Your Brand
Gah! I wasted so much money on branding when I first started my previous photography business.
Why?
Because I thought a brand was a simple as someone creating a logo that you liked well enough, business cards, websites etc…..non of which refelcted me or my brand because nobody spent time explaining what was really behind a great brand or how to create and represent that in my visual branding.
Owning a brand is more than just having a cool logo or a unique name, rather it is about understanding what it is at the heart of your brand because that is what will ultimately sell your services to potential clients.
Here to talk with us more about that today, and to help you avoid some of the very costly mistakes that I made in my early days is Katie Cope.
