There's a reason you reach out for a cocacola when you stop at a grocery store or when you are asked what drink you would prefer. There are others you could pick from but you chose cocacola for a reason and its because they have successful created a good impression on you with their brand. Through branding you have grown accustomed, loyal and trust their product more than other sodas or soft drinks out there. Branding is not meant for only the big companies but it is just as important and necessary to small businesses.

Branding is the process of creating a strong positive view or perception of a company. It tells your customers what exactly they can expect to get from your products and services. Its can become a competitive edge if you pay attention to it as a business owner. By combining logos, taglines, designs, consistent themes and other elements to communicate your brand effectively. It differentiates your business from every other brand out there, makes it stand out and draw more people to you. It is your company's identity because it embodies the core of what your business stands for. To build your brand there are certain compulsory steps you must be ready to take.

Firstly, you have to define your brand; what does your product offer? What are the concerns or needs of your customers. Where does your business stand in the market and find out exactly what your customers desire. You accan also create brand personas (who your potential fustomes are and what they are all about). Your brand character is also part of defining your brand, it should promote your business, connect with your customer base and make you stand out in the market.

Secondly you need a great logo because it really is the foundation of your brand. Some people tend to over think it and end up with some shallow logo. The best way to get a good logo can be to seek professional help. You can deliberate on the color and font that you would prefer. With a logo comes the need for a good tagline or slogan, it must not be too long and boring but rather short and catchy. You can also get inspiration from other brands by paying attention to their means of branding, their content, their websites to draw ideas and inspiration but also dontbtry to copy or mimic them as it will portray your brand as cheap and less inferior.

You can also check trends in the business to see what's attracting people it what exactly is trending. If there's one thing you must do in the process of trying to build a brand is to be consistent in communicating the correct brand message to customers. It may seem discouraging at first but with persistence more people will become more aware of your brand. Don't repeat the same messages over and over though so your audience don't get bored or loose interest but rather aim to make your gospel (key message) work together to build a coherent identity.

It is not easy at all, create a brand and much less position it in a certain market, however, if you choose to build a brand, following these strategies that you mention in your publication, it can be achieved, positioning a brand mainly in the mind of the consumer , because this is the key to differentiate yourself from the rest of your competition, to be in the mind of who consumes our product. Good manuscript, thanks for sharing this type of content with us.

Asides the brand imaging, CocaCola has over the years proven the value (quality) of the products it puts out in the market. I think that any service/product provider should be able to build an image around a quality brand.
