Let’s talk about Branding. Is it important?
─ march 8, 2021
When we are meeting someone important, we want to make a good impression. It’s all the same with Branding. You want to make sure you make a great first impression because you will never get a second chance to make a good first impression.
First impressions can make or break the sale, viewers, followers, job opportunities, or prevent someone from engaging with you. You can make a good first impression through design to communicate your message and reflect your value.
It would help if you had brand recognition through a logo. That means the logo is not just a symbol or text or a pretty drawing. Yes, it is important to make it good-looking, but the logo needs to reflect your brand’s value, mission, style, etc. You also need to different, unique, and memorable, so when you applied across different media, the audience can recognize what you do or sell.
