'We're the best-kept secret. This needs to change.'
Being the best is excellent, but as the old saying goes, if a tree fell in a forest, did it fall? —and as a business owner or product creator, are you as good as you say you are if others don't see it?

BRANDING
Being visible and being recognisable are two crucial yet different things.
Over the last few decades, we've seen numerous brands take on this challenge and build recognisable brands, which was relatively easier when fewer competitors were in the market.
Be it large names of fast food chains we've all seen or common products in our grocery stores, the effort needed to create a cohesive identity when trying to differentiate yourself from 3-5 competitors a decade ago vs. today, when the market may have over a dozen, is an uphill battle. One that is made even more competitive on Social Media.
How many of these images did you associate with a brand?
Building a brand identity goes beyond a logo.
It embodies visual identity, like the colours and symbols that remind people of you - something as simple as a half-bitten apple or a laptop company with red accents.

In an age where doom-scrolling is the norm, and people spend barely a second on a post - How do you communicate your message, entertain your user but also connect with them enough that the remember you when the need arises?
Elevator pitches sound a lot simpler compared to this.
The average social media user spends
1.7 - 3 sec
looking at a post.
If you're looking to become the worst-kept secret and connect with your target audience, let's connect and explore how you can build your brand identity and presence and become memorable for the right reasons.
