If a brand is a customer’s understanding of your products and services — do you know what your audience understands about you?
What is a brand?
- Every organisation has a brand whether they have carefully constructed it, or allowed it to grow on its own
- It’s more than a logo
- It’s your reputation
- It’s what people say about you when you’re not around
- Your brand is generated by what you say, and what you do, as well as by how you present yourself to the world
- A brand is not something that sits on your website looking pretty, it’s something you need to be obsessive about
How people view certain colours varies around the world. In the west, black clothing is often worn when people are mourning or attend funerals. In India the colour for mourning is white.
There are many different theories about colour and which colours evoke particular feelings. Red, is universally connected to warnings or danger – emotions that are close to energy, excitement and thrills.
