How-to guide: learn to brand yourself with words

What you do, what you say (and the tone you say it in), who you are, how you help your clients or audience – each of these elements create an imprint on the world. You don't get to have control over your brand, but you can heavily influence it by thinking about how you want others to perceive you.

Honing in on your brand voice, tone, style, and values can help you decide what marketing actions you will take (and which you’ll avoid) to reinforce the traits, values, and perspectives you want to emphasize about your company.

The long game of marketing and how to play it for sustainable business growth

It takes any business time to build a robust marketing program. It's not something that will happen in a day, a week, or even a year. This is particularly important to realize if you’re frustrated with the growth (or lack thereof) you’ve seen in your business so far. It’s understandable if you’re starting to wonder if your business will ever take off.

Is marketing the magic bullet that will save your business? It can be. The question is whether that momentum will come within the timeline you need or desire.

Your marketing needs more than one perspective: the importance of diversification in marketing

It’s no surprise that consumers expect more from the brands they’re supporting.

Recent years have shone a light on the broken and unethical systems that are in place in our society and the general public, particularly younger generations, want to support brands who are instead demonstrating values like diversity, accessibility and inclusion.

As business owners, it’s our job to respond to this public demand, and ensure we’re making authentic diversity and accessibility a priority in our marketing. (Not just because it’s being demanded, but because it’s the right thing to do).

Here are a few common issues that I see far too often in marketing.
