Time to refresh your brand?

When was the last time you looked at why your company or organization exists? Peter Diamandes of Singularity University says that you need a massively transformational purpose that keeps you focused and attracts talent and clients. Marketing professionals will tell you that people formulate their own opinions about your brand based on their experience as well as your messaging. So it’s important that your branding is clear.

At 805connect we have a simple test when it comes to our brand and projects. We ask the questions What, So What and Now What? When you couple that with your Why, you ought to be able to explain your brand in a sentence or two.

Start with Why. Answering the other three questions becomes easy once you understand why you do what you do.
