Baking with Brand in Mind: Building a Unique Brand
Let me share a secret with you—I love to bake from scratch. Something incredibly satisfying about taking raw ingredients, mixing them in just the right proportions, and creating something delicious and soul-satisfying. Whether it’s a simple recipe like French bread that only requires four ingredients or a complex one like tiramisu, each dish requires the…
Your Brand is Art: Understanding Branding as an Art Form
Even as simple as it seems, branding as an art form is powerful. A few months ago, Simon Mainwaring made a post titled, “Social media explained by a 9-year-old in one sentence”. In it, he shared a quote from a 9-year-old named Elyssa, which said: “When I make my art about a flower, it is…

Too often, when we consider Branding, we focus entirely on the name of the business, the smartness of the tagline, or the commercials we produce. However, branding should be about creating a consistent customer experience, and the best way to accomplish this is through actions. We all know that we believe in a person’s actions…
Consistent Branding at Different Locations

How to Create a Brand
We feel the rightness of creating a brand in our bones. Marketing and advertising agencies tell us that we’re supposed to “create a brand,” and we believe them.
