Branding For Small Business
Branding for small business is important - it tells people what they can expect from you and it differentiates you from your competitors. Your brand is what people think of when they hear your brand name. Are you just starting out or are you experienced and reliable? Do you provide exotic, high-cost products or do you deliver top quality at a reasonable price? You can't market yourself as both and it’s important that people know what they can expect from you. Branding For Small Business Here are a few questions to help you define your brand: Who are you and what do you do? What problem are you solving and how are you different from the competition? What’s in it for the client and why should they want to deal with you? Positioning Your Brand Unless you have a unique product that no one else has, you need to think about positioning. It is the place you want to own in your prospect’s minds – what you want them to think of when they think of your brand. Here are a few examples of positioning: Position based on benefit - Volvo: Safety Position based on the consumer -Pepsi: Pepsi Generation Position based on proposition -Burger King: Have it your way Position based on the competition -Seven-Up: The Un-cola Getting The Word Out Once you've defined your brand, you need to get the word out?

Welcome to the Stickerbeat first blog. We are www.stickerbeat.com. The sticker part implies that we we print custom stickers. The beat part simply means that our stickers rock. We have been doing this for 30 years. We have done work for Molsons, Target, Walmart, Home Depot, Nike, Best Buy and on and on. We print custom stickers with 4 different high speed digital presses. When we started this gig, there was no digital presses, no internet, and we had no cell phones. We had a rotary phone!! But as the changes came we made sure we didn't skip a beat. We moved with the times and have been quick to adapt to all the new technologies that have come our way. It all began in 1986 when 2 elementary school buddies saved up enough money to buy a t-shirt printer and a computer signmaker all the while making enough room in the basement to start grinding it out. 30 years later, still together and having brought our kids onboard we are making a new launch into the e-commerce world. The kids tell us thats where its at. Who are we to disagree? We're ordering just about everything online ourselves. So with this e-commerce launch we have created our new user friendly site so that you can create and order your stickers, decals, and magnets right from your own computer and have it shipped to your door for free. We hope you enjoy browsing through our site as much as we enjoyed creating it. And please, let us know what you think.
