One Key Thing That Will Transform Your Brand

3 years ago | 3 minute read

Can you tell me simply what your company stands for? It’s a question that a lot of people have trouble answering. Your company exists for a purpose, and that purpose is not to make money or produce a specific product. It has a broader problem it’s trying to solve, or at least it should if you want to have long term success. What I find with a number of the clients I work with is that they can’t simply state that mission. They’ve always got a convoluted, detail-oriented, mixed-message explanation that would vary if you talked to different decision makers in the same company. Quite frankly, if you fall in to that category of people, that’s hurting your brand.

Recommendation of the Week: GroupMe

Raise your hand if you love group texts. Good, neither do I. Group texting is the most randomized, attention deprived, chaotic method of communication I have ever used. To be quite honest, I believe you've got to be totally insane to try to use it. Other solutions to fix the problem, like Facebook Messenger or Kik, aren't any better as they lack any real ability to organize things. Today, we're recommending a solution for that.
