One of the most challenging aspects of being an entrepreneur is building a brand that represents your business in the most authentic way possible. Authenticity is the alignment of every single aspect of your brand platform; from your mission, vision, values -and to how you look and speak online, consistently living and speaking your brand’s truth is the KEY to creating a brand identity that is distinguishable and profitable from everyone else in your vertical.
So with all that said, how DO we go about tackling this and creating a brand that our customers can know, like, and trust? It all starts with brand personas.
In this live and interactive workshop, we’ll be discussing why brand personas are critical for authenticity. We’ll review two case studies that are specific to the food industry, and you will be led through a real-time exercise that will help you to create your very own brand personas.
