Business plan, customer acquisition, market analysis and branding all form the core of any solid startup business. Whether you’re just starting out or have been in the business for a while, join us online and avoid letting these 5 common branding mistakes stop you from reaching your full growth potential.
From pitch to market, startups are constantly faced with intense competition, high expectations and limited resources. Actively branding their offerings is essential to help them stand out, get off to a good start, and set them up for long-term success.
However, startups and small businesses are often too caught up in the operations and technical details. Branding, on the other hand, is usually left as an afterthought.
Branding is not a quick and easy process, nor can it be reduced to a choice of logo and colour. But if you are a small business or startup, there are simple ways to make sure you start out on the right track, and this begins by knowing how to avoid these 5 common mistakes.
Based on our work with various startups, incubators and entrepreneurs, we will share our tips and tools to help you make the right (branding) decisions for your rising business!
