SUMMER REPLAY: Your Logo is NOT Your Brand (so what the heck is??)

Do you get caught in the branding trap that many creative businesses find themselves falling into? The one where you get so wrapped up in the physical assets of your brand that you forget about what branding actually is? Your logo? Not your brand. Your website colours? Not your brand. They're physical assets OF your brand. So what is your brand? Melissa and Heather Travis dive into the less obvious (but extremely critical) aspects of branding from telling your story, to creating a mission statement and even choosing who your business works with and how you treat your contractors and employees!This is a great episode for those creative business owners who are struggling with the deeper aspects of their branding or new business owners who are not even sure where to begin with their branding (hot hint: it's not your logo!)For a summary of this episode and all the links mentioned, please visit:Episode 61: Your Logo is NOT Your BrandSUPPORT THE PODCAST: Did you know you can now directly support the podcast and help us keep creating great content you want to listen to?
