That&#8217;s what nature is all about: <strong>destruction<\/strong> and <strong>balance<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Now, I have two pieces of news for you: a good one and a bad one. The good one is that when it comes to <strong>business<\/strong> we&#8217;re not talking about the merciless natural selection but rather about <strong>well-behaved civilization<\/strong>. The bad one, however, is that here there&#8217;s<strong> no balance<\/strong> &#8211; the big fish can and will <strong>devour<\/strong> your business whenever faced with the opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s why you need to step your game up! When it comes to your small business you can&#8217;t afford a single moment of distraction. Keeping your focus on your priorities and your personalized customer care is what will help you not only survive but create a loyal customer base.<\/p>\n<p>The first thing to keep in mind while walking the long road of a successful business is <strong>brand-building.<\/strong> Now, more than ever, brands have become an undoubtful part of our<strong> everyday life and decision-making.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In fact,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>60% of the global consumers prefer buying products from a familiar\u00a0brand.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>And even though being a corporate giant does help, having a huge business is not necessary to become <strong>recognizable\u00a0<\/strong>to your target group. That&#8217;s why you need your brand identity. We&#8217;ve summed up the first steps you need to take into six simple steps for beginners.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>1. Define your key qualities.<\/h2>\n<p>As a brand, you have to be completely <strong>aware of your qualities<\/strong>. We&#8217;re not talking just about technical features here, we&#8217;re talking about <strong>the actual advantages your brand offers to its users<\/strong>. You need to <strong>believe in your brand<\/strong> and its<strong> benefit to the world<\/strong>. To craft a completed identity, your brand needs to become part of your beliefs, something you breathe with and you live with. As strange as it might sound when applied to your leather goods business, for example, that is the first sign that you&#8217;re moving in the right direction. Leather goods mean luxury and quality &#8211; features applicable to every aspect of your life. Features you need to focus on in your language and visual presentation while advertising. These are your <strong>key qualities<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<div style=\"position: relative; height: 0px; padding-bottom: 56.25%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"position: absolute; width: 100%; height: 100%; left: 0;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/A3PDXmYoF5U?ecver=2\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>A company you can learn a lot from is <strong>GoPro<\/strong>. As one of the brands with the most <strong>user-generated content<\/strong>, they&#8217;re very well familiar with their product&#8217;s biggest advantages for the users. Having a target group of young extreme sports enthusiasts means that the qualities you need to have are <em><strong>portability, durability,\u00a0and convenient size.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>After defining its main advantages <strong>GoPro\u00a0<\/strong>was able to come up with its infamous slogan: <em><strong>Be a hero\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>which was soon acquired by its fans. That&#8217;s UGC heaven right there! This is what 21st-century marketing is all about!<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Make a list with the<strong> technical features<\/strong> of your product. Write all the <strong>metrics<\/strong> and <strong>numbers<\/strong> you can think of. Done? Great! Now let&#8217;s think <strong>what each of these characteristics gives to the customer<\/strong>, how it&#8217;s <strong>unique<\/strong> and <strong>necessary<\/strong> for the users. Think of the <strong>actual benefits your product offers<\/strong> &#8211; those are your<em><strong> key qualities<\/strong><\/em>. After you&#8217;ve done with the definition of your qualities start incorporating them in your social media ads, brand language, and design.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>2. Know your target audience.<\/h2>\n<p>A <strong>target audience<\/strong> might sound extremely broad at first, but once you create your actual <strong>customer personalities<\/strong>, you&#8217;ll see that you only need to get to know about 4 types of people. Consider your approach to your audience as a <strong>social skill.<\/strong> How would you behave if you met your customer in your everyday life? How would you talk to them? Are they young and spontaneous or are they analytical and authoritative? Do you call them by their first name or\u00a0do they prefer Sir\/Madam?<\/p>\n<p>Choosing a <strong>brand voice<\/strong> is essential as you need to be <strong>consistent<\/strong> with your brand identity. This means that you can&#8217;t afford to change your visual style or talking tone when trying to <strong>build one whole coherent brand<\/strong>. That&#8217;s why knowing your audience and its <em><strong>preferences<\/strong> <\/em>will help you define your approach to it.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11152\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Nike_Ad.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"563\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Well-known for its bold<strong> language<\/strong> and sharp design,\u00a0<em><strong>Nike\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>is a perfect example of a brand that knows and constantly explores its audience. <strong>Lovers of sportswear are open to a somewhat aggressively motivational voice<\/strong> that sounds <strong>fresh<\/strong> and <strong>exciting<\/strong>. That&#8217;s why the infamous slogan\u00a0<em><strong>Just do it<\/strong>\u00a0<\/em>has become a symbol of achievement and motivation. That is also why they can say <em><strong>The future was yesterday<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0and still sound optimistic. That&#8217;s the power of brand identity.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>As trivial as it might sound, the first step here is to create a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/back.ly\/jbtEZ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Customer Persona Template<\/a>.<\/strong> By personilizing your target group in one individual being you&#8217;ll notice that you get to know them better and improve your approach. Add\u00a0<em><strong>demographics, goals and values, professional background, motivators,\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>and everything else you find relevant. Afterwards, all that&#8217;s left to do is to <em><strong>adjust your voice as a brand<\/strong><\/em> according to that personality.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>3. Design a unique logo and tagline<\/h2>\n<p>Image is everything. No, literally, <b><i>image\u00a0<\/i><\/b>is everything. A <strong>high-quality visual representation<\/strong> of your brand is what is standing between you and success. Now more than ever, we&#8217;re used to perceiving the world visually and, even though we&#8217;re flooded by millions of images daily, we&#8217;re still able to recognize the valuable ones.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_11192\" style=\"width: 202px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11192\" class=\"wp-image-11192\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/chupachupslogo.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"192\" height=\"189\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-11192\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The great Spanish painter <strong>Salvador Dali<\/strong> designed the infamous <strong>Chupa Chups<\/strong> logo.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A huge part of your brand image is your <strong>logo<\/strong>. A logo has to be so <strong>simple<\/strong> that even when you squint your eyes, you&#8217;re still able to recognize it by the colors and the shapes.<br \/>\nIt also has to <strong>represent<\/strong> your brand in some way &#8211; by image, by shape, or by color. This means that you can&#8217;t just randomly pick a certain style you like &#8211; it needs to be <strong>relevant<\/strong> to your brand&#8217;s <strong>essence<\/strong> and <strong>values<\/strong>.<br \/>\nWhen it comes to the <strong>tagline<\/strong>, this is where you mix words and images into one whole. Serving as a slogan of some kind, the tagline needs to <strong>fit visually<\/strong> into your logo (whether it&#8217;s under or above it). Companies usually approach their tagline, not as a company belief but rather as a <strong>motivational mission statement<\/strong>\u00a0connected to the user experience they provide.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11276 alignleft\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/fedex_logo.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"592\" height=\"242\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>FedEx<\/strong><\/em>&#8216;s logo has been an inspiration to <strong>minimalism<\/strong> lovers for years. It isn&#8217;t just minimal, though. It&#8217;s also extremely well-thought-out when it comes to colors and shapes. Check out that tiny <em>arrow<\/em> between the\u00a0<strong>E<\/strong> and\u00a0<strong>x\u00a0<\/strong>pointing forward! A small detail like that is the <strong>assurance<\/strong> their customers need for their service quality:\u00a0<strong>fast, developing, futuristic.\u00a0<\/strong>As you can see, <em><strong>FedEx<\/strong> <\/em>chose a <strong>tagline<\/strong> without any verbs &#8211; something that most companies wouldn&#8217;t dare to do. The\u00a0<strong>tagline<\/strong> here sounds more like a metaphorical promise and a collective company goal. It leaves us feeling like we&#8217;re choosing a <em><strong>safe<\/strong> <\/em>and <em><strong>trustworthy<\/strong> <\/em>delivery service.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>If your team is missing a bright and modern graphic designer, don&#8217;t lose hope. You can create your logo for free on <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/back.ly\/6mvfc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Free Logo Maker<\/a>.<\/strong> I&#8217;m also usually sceptical towards online graphic tools but I promise this one will not only save your time and money but also give a new shine to your identity. Drag and drop any <strong>shapes<\/strong>, <strong>fonts<\/strong>, and <strong>graphics<\/strong> you want.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to your <strong>tagline<\/strong>, however, there isn&#8217;t a magical recipe. If you&#8217;re determined to craft an original and memorable tagline, try to choose one of the two options:<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>1. action words-\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>including verbs in it lets your customers know what they&#8217;re supposed to do with your product (are they supposed to <em>be loving it<\/em>, to <em>just do it<\/em>, or to <em>think different<\/em>). Also these are the taglines that sound like jingles and are extremely memorable.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>2. mission statement-\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>using nouns and adjectives describing your qualities doesn&#8217;t need to be static. On the opposite, it comes to show your main goal as a brand and assures your users that they&#8217;re on the right place.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2>4. Be present online.<\/h2>\n<p>About 30 years ago brands were what was presented in the media- they dictated the trends and the winners. Today, every single company can have its media through high-quality digital content. Media&#8217;s dimensions have broadened incredibly to all the areas of our online presence: <strong>social media<\/strong>, <strong>personal websites<\/strong>, and <strong>advertisements<\/strong>. Now we&#8217;ve got the excellent chance to connect to our users, communicate with them, see their faces and show them ours. We shouldn&#8217;t waste it!<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Social media\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>is that amazing wide field where you\u00a0can plant whatever you&#8217;d like to pick. Your approach leads to your followers&#8217; behavior. Furthermore, people are much more likely to actively participate in the communication with a brand <em><strong>online<\/strong><\/em>. They\u00a0<em><strong>generate some of the most valuable content\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>through pictures, testimonials, videos, etc. Your social media presence, however, is a multi-layered goal and you need to work on multiple aspects when trying to achieve it.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>If <strong>brand building<\/strong> is an <em>amusement park<\/em>, then managing only your\u00a0<strong>social media\u00a0<\/strong>pages is like visiting only the <em>gift shops<\/em>. It might seem fun but you came here for the <em>rollercoasters<\/em>. Your<strong> personal website<\/strong> is what makes it all actually count.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Personal websites\u00a0<\/strong>give you the <em><strong>credibility<\/strong> <\/em>you need as a brand. Your customers will be thankful if you provide a nice space for them to explore you and your <em><strong>values<\/strong> <\/em>and\u00a0<em><strong>beliefs<\/strong><\/em>, your <em><strong>creativity<\/strong> <\/em>and your <em><strong>advice<\/strong><\/em>, your <em><strong>products,<\/strong> <\/em>and your <em><strong>services<\/strong><\/em>. All of your efforts on this journey achieve a result only when you&#8217;ve managed to make yourself <em><strong>trustworthy<\/strong> <\/em>and <em><strong>useful<\/strong> <\/em>to your users. And if you&#8217;re able to combine your social media presence with your website, then you&#8217;re playing the game.;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Oreo, in Association with Milk, Presents: The Spilling. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/OreoHorrorStories?src=hash\">#OreoHorrorStories<\/a> Now playing at <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/O2zWHh5IgI\">https:\/\/t.co\/O2zWHh5IgI<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Halloween?src=hash\">#Halloween<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u2014 Oreo Cookie (@Oreo) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Oreo\/status\/395233541568491523\">29 \u043e\u043a\u0442\u043e\u043c\u0432\u0440\u0438 2013 \u0433.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async=\"\" src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><em><strong>Oreo\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>is one of my favorite examples of witty social media branding.
