Brand Identity
There’s no point focusing all your efforts on social media if you don’t have your own brand identity.
Your brand identity wants to reflect your service, product and yourself positively and accurately.
Ways you can start to enforce your brand image across your business is by starting to choose your company colours, fonts; general stylistic choices.
Stick by these choices, don’t differ. Over time, by implementing your brand identity across your platforms and products you will start to see people recognising your brand.
