Do your customers have a crush on your brand? Do they recognise it, adore it and know how you are different from your competition?

Up until recently, branding has been a word associated with big companies. And, it’s been associated with ‘logos’ and ‘tag lines’. Wrong! Whether you’re a solo or small business, your business can now drag business away from competitors and open up your specific part of the marketplace. It’s time to think differently. Micro-branding for small businesses gets results. Here’s what it takes:
