Branding: What Not to Do
Here is a little story about what not to do as you carve out a name for your self in the world of internet business.
Do not use a miscellaneous e-mail account as your main web contact offer with.
Some silly copywriter did this when she thought she was heading to start operating “freelance corporate” for staffing companies.
This copywriter chose the name “seniorcopywriter” for her contact e-mail because, in the corporate world, copywriters arrive in three sizes: Junior, Normal (really referred to as just “Copywriter”), and Senior. (It is type of like the sizes of Starbucks espresso cups, but not.)
Because she had left her last corporate task wielding the lofty title of Senior Copywriter, I guess she thought that would be a fairly immediate way of marketing her capabilities.
What she did not realize was that she was about to embark on a wild internet mega-marketing journey, and that corporate had observed the last of her and her copywriting seniority.
So, now when individuals go to her web website, they see the e-mail contact offer with as “Seniorcopywriter” and most most likely wonder what kind of self-titling weirdo she is.
And when they arrive across her e-mail offer with in some surprising location, they make no connection in between it and her web website, which is known as Wordfeeder.com.
If you have not caught my drift nevertheless, I am utilizing this story to illustrate the point that extremely efficient branding is planned and purposeful. All of the components of your business ought to “match.” Your web website, company name, logo, tagline, e-mail offer with, and essentially every thing you create thereafter, ought to be aimed directly at your target audience. Everthing ought to coordinate completely– like Jackie O’s wardrobe.
Someday, this copywriter who shall stay nameless, will get around to altering her e-mail offer with to some thing much more appropriate. But because it’s seemed to provide her great luck, for now she superstitiously retains it as is.
