S1 Ep. 76 My Communication and Branding Story With Perez Tigidam

Send us Fan MailWhat is branding? Is it that logo and badge you wear and carry?As opined by Walter Landor, Founder of Landor “Products are made in a factory but brands are created in the mind”In both the personal and corporate space, the above questions consciously and unconsciously come to us. We all work at making those impressions that will endear us to people in the bid to profit from it somehow. Perception is golden within the communication and branding space, and it has overwhelming power in expressing your thoughts in your speaking, reacting, and promoting your content in a sense.One can safely say that this is a combination of 'the what and why' of one's doing and becoming, a vehicle that warehouses and carries the promise of quality with the intention of no disappointments.In this episode of the Word Café, our focus will be on Communication and Branding, the personal story of Perez Tigidam.Perez Tigidam is a Brand & Communications Strategy Professional.
