What is a brand? Is it your logo, your color scheme, your content and the photos you use? It’s all of these, yet none of them alone. A brand is a perception of your business in a client/customer’s mind. To create a memorable perception, all the components including your visual brand must work together. You must understand your business and your clients really well. Branding simply means using consistent visuals and content to communicate a message.
