		<description>Good questions. I know this post is a bit old, but I want to share my idea. A strong brand is invaluable as the battle for customers intensifies day by day. It&#039;s important to spend time investing in researching, defining, and building your brand. After all your brand is the source of a promise to your consumer. It&#039;s a foundational piece in your marketing communication and one you do not want to be without. Thanks for these advices.
My best regards,
Juan</description>

		<description>Branding is not about getting your potential clients to choose you over your competition, nevertheless it is about getting your prospects to determine you as the only one that gives a solution to their problem. The outward expression of a brand, involves its name, trademark, communications, and visual appearance. Your brand resides within the hearts and minds of customers, clients, and prospects.

Branding is a lot more than a marketing objective. For me truly branding is an outcome of just good plain business common sense. Yet still, it is much seen as a driver rather than an outcome. The act of associating a product or service with a brand has become part of pop culture. Most products have some kind of brand identity, from common table salt to designer jeans.

Additionally there is Attitude branding which is the choice to represent a larger feeling, which is not necessarily connected with the product or consumption of the product at all.

It&#039;s crucial that you spend time investing in researching, defining, and building your brand. All things considered your brand is the source of a guarantee to your customer.

That&#039;s a great idea!  Not only do you explain what makes you different, you&#039;re also incorporating the first step in &quot;The easiest way to sell stuff EVER&quot;, by saying &quot;Here&#039;s what I got&quot;

Nice Job!

The elevator speech is great. You should get in the habit of being able to tell people what you do in 30 seconds or less.

		<description>My favorite one on the list is what makes you different. As you can see I put an entire page on my website explaining our &lt;a href=&quot;http://sem-group.net/our-unique-sales-proposition/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Unique Sales Proposition&lt;/a&gt; Basically it&#039;s the equivalent of business DNA. you really need this to differentiate yourself from other in your industry so you will have a clear reason for standing out from the crowd. 

As always great points Matt. ;-)</description>

		<description>I do love the whole concept of the elevator speech.  These are the questions that should really be clear before starting a business because they should be the foundation and the driving force behind all manner of decisions, including marketing, business planning, budgeting and a whole host of others.
