Getting your business branding developed early is important. Charly discusses the whys and wherefores of her experience. Over a couple of episodes I've spoken about the fact that sometimes free isn't free and that quality is more worth than quantity in marketing. I wanted to touch on that a little more this week and extend that to your business branding. Let's start with what business branding is. Branding, at least to me, is more than just a logo but the logo is certainly part of it - perhaps a big part of it. Branding is the imagery you use, colours and fonts and how they all combine. It might also include the way you interact with your customers. I remember when Optus first started in Australia, they built their brand on saying "yes". In my experience, failing to develop your branding early in the business setup process can be extremely harmful. That failure tends to result in a lack of 'brand recognition' for the business and the marketing person having to scramble to create new material time and time again. Setting the branding of your business early means that you can more readily develop the recognition of your business, it makes developing marketing materials easier and it means that developing things like your website and social media presence become consistent. So, why do businesses fail to set their branding on startup? Sometimes it's because they don't know they need to. Sometimes it's because they don't know HOW to or who can help them. But most times, unfortunately, it's seen as being 'too' expensive to do. That last point can be valid, if you go about it the wrong way or speak to the wrong people. Let's touch on that second point first. Some organisations can be quite costly to deal with - they do a FANTASTIC, top tier job and they work with large organisations. Whilst this organisations are good, I wouldn't recommend that they are appropriate for a startup. Startups have very different marketing budgets. Finding the right organisation or person to work with, is key in this case. Another reason that getting your branding organised can be expensive is there isn't a clear idea on who the Target Audience is and WHAT message is being conveyed. Getting these two things nailed down first is also key. Once you've got those two things sorted out, you absolutely should get a basic brand kit developed. What's in a basic brand kit? A logo, the colours that represent your business (and their codes) and the fonts to use. Typically, the colours and fonts will be decided by the logo, which is why getting a logo is helpful. But logos cost so much money!! Yes, they can. Or at least, it can seem that way. There are many talented individuals in the freelance world who have great packages for a 'startup' logo that shouldn't break the bank. However, in this case, it's one expense I highly recommend you incur. By creating your logo, and by flow on getting your colours and fonts, you can create a consistent marketing message that looks professional. And by that, I mean it doesn't look like you've found a piece of clip art (am I dating myself here?) and stuck in a graphics editing package. A professionally developed logo will show that you are serious about your business and here for the long run. I've already covered a few things to consider when developing your branding: 1. Make sure you know who your Target Audience is 2. Make sure you know what your message is There's a couple of others that I'd like to highlight as well, most relate to engaging a designer. 1. Ensure that you will get the rights to the work they create. 2. Ensure that you will get the source files to your logo. Your webdesigner and other graphics people will most likely need the original files to be able to do their work 3. Ensure that the artwork is given in a large format. You don't want to get your logo at 300px by 300px in size, 150dpi. You want high resolution, large format so you can resize it as needed. 4. Make suire that any fornts used are accessible to you and usable on the web. If a licence is needed, be sure you have that licence and you know what it costs. 5. Lastly, I like to make sure that I get artwork that includes the text for my business and a set that has just the logo only. There's probably things that I've missed, but those are the big ones. Lastly! Having gone through the process of devleoping your branding ... USE IT! Don't just put it in a folder on your computer - make it part of your business. Create letterhead and document templates with the styles to match it etc etc etc. Have you gone through the process of creating your branding? Do you have the artwork for your logo in formats that you can use or pass off to others who will develop material for your business? *** Follow us: Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-2198421 Locals: https://askcharlyleetham.locals.com Odyssey: https://odysee.com/@askcharlyleetham:4 YouTube: https://youtube.com/askcharlyleetham Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/askcharlyleetham LinkedIn -www.linkedin.com/in/charlyleetham LinkedIn Company -https://www.linkedin.com/company/ask-charly-leetham/ Twitter - https://twitter.com/yourbizmgr Anchor - https://anchor.fm/ask-charly-leetham Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/3z49Z4uM8iD3jWFq4jOz8 Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ask-charly-leetham-online-business-manager/id1659738721 iHeartRadio - https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-ask-charly-leetham-online-105944212/ Amazon Music - https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/662f1e44-115d-4094-862b-efe9307e0df4/ask-charly-leetham-online-business-manager

Are you living to work or working to live? I use that phrase a lot, it's something my Dad says to me a lot and has done since I was a young woman entering the rat race. Charly, are you living to work or working to live. It was a reminder that whilst getting money through the door is important, it's not as important as actually living. As a business person, I find that question an important one to ask each and every day. Are you finding yourself getting up in the morning, starting work, working ALLLLLL day (in your business and for your family), heading to bed and repeating the same thing the next day and the next day and the next day? And .... you're just barely making ends meet, if at all? Has this pattern gone on for more than a couple of weeks? Is there any sign that this pattern is going to stop in the near future? If the answer to those questions is yes (and I think I might be hearing some of you saying "ohhhh yes. So this..." Then you're probably living to work. When this happens, it's hard to break the cycle. But break the cycle you have to. If you don't, you'll find yourself like I found myslef a few years ago. Burned out, unhappy, unhealthy and wondering if anything was worth doing at all. How do you break the pattern? You need to keep the dollars rolling so you can pay your bills, so you NEED to work. You can't afford to spend anything to get any help .... Or can you? It's here that I'm going to recommend that you take a break for a day, maybe two. The first thing I found worked for me was to get out - walk bare foot in the grass (maybe not in the Southern states of Australia right now), walk at the beach, go for a cuppa ... just do something that isn't what you usually do. Let your brain and your body remember what it's like to just .... not work. Then, I'm going to recommend you find someone to coach or mentor you. Someone who can ask you the really hard questions and ... eventually ... get you to the answers. Now, finding a coach or mentor could take time. In the meantime, sit down and write out ALL the things you do. Make that laundry list of things that you spend your time in your business. Take that laundry list and prioritise. Be BRUTALLY honest with yourself - what things on that list are really bringing the dollars through the door? Those are your pririority. The others, well, we'll get to those. Now with that priority list - which ones can you do quickly and bring the majority of your income. Which ones still need doing but you struggle to do? Finally, which of priority tasks do you enjoy doing and which are the ones that have you finding the mismatched socks to match up? The ones that you can do quickly are the ones you keep yourself to do in the shortterm. These are your good ROI, return on investment, tasks. The other ones, I'm going to recommend you find someone that can do them more quickly than you can and get them to do them. It seems counter intuitive, I know. Paying someone to do something you can do yourself but sometimes, just paying someone to get those 'ugh' tasks done to let you focus on what you do best AND give you a little bit of time back FOR YOURSELF will change your life around. You might also find getting an accountability buddy helps as well. Another business owner that you sit down with once a week, have a cuppa (or a wine >.>) and go through all these things. Someone who will 'call you out' if you start slipping, someone that you get to call out too, but someone who can understand the struggle as well. There's so much to delve into on this topic that todays podcast is just skimming the surface of it all. However, you may find employing just these few things makes life a little more .... enjoyable for you. *** Follow us: Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-2198421 Locals: https://askcharlyleetham.locals.com Odyssey: https://odysee.com/@askcharlyleetham:4 YouTube: https://youtube.com/askcharlyleetham Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/askcharlyleetham LinkedIn -www.linkedin.com/in/charlyleetham LinkedIn Company -https://www.linkedin.com/company/ask-charly-leetham/ Twitter - https://twitter.com/yourbizmgr Anchor - https://anchor.fm/ask-charly-leetham Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/3z49Z4uM8iD3jWFq4jOz8 Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ask-charly-leetham-online-business-manager/id1659738721 iHeartRadio - https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-ask-charly-leetham-online-105944212/ Amazon Music - https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/662f1e44-115d-4094-862b-efe9307e0df4/ask-charly-leetham-online-business-manager
