3-Step Branding Guide for Your Small Business

Here is a quick guide to help you shape your business’s brand identity.

It’s important for your small business to stand out wherever it can. When you own a small business, you take on a lot of responsibilities, including marketing. So that means you might be faced with many complicated decisions. In particular, you might be wondering how to create and promote a brand for your business. Here is a quick guide to help you shape your business’s brand identity.

Establishing Identity

The first step to creating your brand identity is to ask yourself who you are as a company. If you haven’t already, take some time to seriously think about what you want to project to the world. What is the overall mood of your brand? Is it sleek and high-end, down-to-earth, lighthearted, and fun? Are there specific values that should be incorporated into your brand image upfront? Like an all-vegan bakery or a retail shop that gives a percent of the profit to a specific cause, for example. These considerations and more are all important factors for establishing your brand identity.

Make it Visual

Having a clear idea about your brand is great, but where it really counts is in how it looks. You will need to think of the visual aspects of your brand, like the company colors. Choosing company colors is very critical in setting the tone for your business, as well as helping you design your logo. It’s a good idea to consult a graphic designer if you have never created a logo before.

Clear Message

Tying your brand image all together is your company message. It can be a literal message, like a mission statement or slogan, or it can be a singular concept, like being environmentally-friendly. Either way, the key is consistency. Planning ahead and figuring out exactly what you want is the best way to make sure that you don’t change your brand up too many times in its fledgling stage. Having a clear, visual, and consistent brand image will make your small business stand out to customers.
