Branding is all of the ways you establish an image of your company in your customers’ eyes and minds. It’s your “what”, your “how”, and your “why”.

What you would like people to think of your company—versus what they actually think of your company—is affected by how successfully your brand is verbally and visually articulated.
There isn’t a formula by which to accomplish this. But, there is a process. And, the process begins with presenting an authentic and relatable story and image.
