Branding is important to every business. If people don’t know who you are or can’t quickly get an impression of your brand, you will likely not get their business. To better understand why this principle can bring value to your business will require you to think beyond personality, logo colors, or websites.

Social media is one of the quickest ways to build your brand awareness. If you think about a personal experience you’ve had recently when you wanted to get a better understanding or more information about a particular brand, you likely checked their social media presence. So you should not overlook this option as a strategy to grow your own business. This philosophy is not just for big brands.

Another important component of branding is to consider the perception that your target audience has of your brand. Are they willing to pay the price for your product or service, based on how they feel about your brand. This perception is created by the content posted on your social media channels, the images on your website, your customer service and so much more. Your messaging across all aspects of your business should reflect how you wish to be perceived by your target audience. If you begin your branding strategy with the end in mind, you will consider, a GOAL for your overall brand. This will require you to develop an authentic brand story that should also include your value proposition. By developing an aligned message for your brand, every conversation that you have online and offline will continue to build trust with your target market.

Your overall messaging overtime will help you to build your brand loyalty, increase the equity of your brand and your prospects and customers will continue coming back to buy from you and also refer you business which is what you want.

Big brands can teach us a lot about what to do and not to do and the most important for many is consistency, relevancy and storytelling. It’s all about connecting with end users and target customers, so never forget the significance of your commitment to them and your “WHY”.  Take note of some of the lessons from big brands, like Coca-Cola and Ford two of our favorites .
