As the saying goes, "If you are not a brand, you are a commodity".

Brand building is a powerful tool to help businesses differentiate themselves to achieve long term profitability. However, many organisations lack a strategic understanding of the branding process resulting in uncoordinated efforts. In addition, some people see the brand building as a "campaign" or "social media marketing" effort and fail to nurture and grow the brand/s over time with new initiatives. The truth is that brand building is strategic and requires clarity and focus.
