BRANDING YOUR BUSINESS
When creating a brand, there are a lot things that need to be taken into account. You have to think of your brand as an entity, a living thing (this business or product is probably your baby, after all). What does your 'baby' look like? What does it like? How does it interact with others? How does your baby make others feel?
Asking all of these questions before starting will help you create a solid visual identity to follow. But before you do, keep in mind these things:
• It Will Not Happen Overnight
Brands need development, require some trial and error, and time to build trust in your company.
• Consistency Is Key
Stick to the message do you send through the look and feel of your brand, and the experience you want your customers to have.
• Build A Tagline To Go With The Logo
The tagline supports and strengthens your brand expanding on your brand’s purpose.

If you are not marketing, nothing will happen. Don’t underestimate the worth of marketing to bring in new business, especially in todays world of on-line marketing.
• Promotional Materials Are A Strong Investment
You want to invest in promotional items that will elevate your brand and distinguish it from the pack. Zagoory is a great place to start.
• Sales vs Branding
The greatest companies in the world don’t sell, they brand. Focus on building a relationship that will last by putting energy into branding. Always try to create an experience for your customers.

Learn from the businesses around you and your competitors. See what successful strategies they have employed and learn from them.
