Five Tips for Branding Small Businesses




Do not follow the myth that Branding is only for large companies and not for you. Follow these five tips to brand your small business as big business.

Tip#1 Your Brand Logo doesn’t Really Matter-
Would you choose MSN over Google because the logo is not so attractive? A good professional logo is great but it rarely increases the sales. It is more important to include your logo in every piece of communication. Include your logo in newsletters, letter heads, envelopes, invoices, yellow pages ad, building signage and so on.

Tip#2 Have a Professional Website-
It is good enough to have a website which will reflect your brand.  Your website should be updated at least once in 2 years. The website should include all the relevant information in detail. If you are not on web then you are nowhere. These days’ people refer internet to get the information about anything.

Tip#3 Blogs are Good-
Blogs help your business on multiple levels. Firstly, valuable content on a consistent basis will make you look like expert.  People are looking for experts and not apprentices. The software that powers blogs has multiple advantages.

Tip#4 Blogs are good but they are just one tool-
A blog should not only be your marketing tool. You can market through various other tools, like direct mail, email campaign, webinars, sponsor a local and attend tradeshows. There are a thousand numbers of ways for you to be noticed.

Tip#5 Prepare on page corporate view-
Use short sentences in short paragraphs - people like to read it quickly. Also make it conversational because it is not a whitepaper. Your one page view should include your value proposition, target audience benefits, previous audience experience and a mini case study and do not forget your contact information.

#Bonus Tip- Branding is as much about your people as anything else- Never forget the best interaction comes from one-on-one conversations between executives, suppliers, employees and customers. Employees that want to help and do the best job possible go a long way.
