On the fourth day of Christmas...

...ideaologie said to me...

"What is your why?"

Again, another foundational aspect of your brand... When you know your "why", your "purpose", or your "brand mission", it can make your path seem more clear. Decisions are easier to come by. You know what you are, how and who to market towards. Sometimes your know your "why", sometimes you don't. When it is not clear, a good Q&A session with us can bring it out... One of the first parts in working with us is answering our "Big Questions for Big Thinkers". Want to know "why"? Start a conversation with us and find out!

On the third day of Christmas...

...ideaologie said to me...

"Dream even bigger!"

Once you've achieved a certain level to your business, you can choose to stay with the status quo or take your business to a different level or direction. With the economic environment always changing, it is smart not to get too complacent with things. You always need to be anticipating new markets and new marketing platforms, etc... Most of the time, it is really hard to anticipate this on your own, as you are a little too close to it. Why not hire us to help you stretch yourself and dream a little bigger?

...ideaologie said to me...

"How 'bout a brand?"

Your brand is also foundational for your business. How you dress it and promote it is your spokesperson for your business. You need to be in control of it's presentation. Do you have your ducks in a row when it comes to your logo and how to package your brand? If you want a consistent brand presence at retail, you need to drive this. Are you being consistent with your brand across all of your social media platforms? There are so many things to consider when it comes to building your brand - we have built many from scratch or helped re-invent some big brands and we are here to help you!

On the first day of Christmas...

...ideaologie said to me...

"Do you have a strategy?"

We feel like a strategy is foundational for your business. How are you supposed to move forward, if you do not know where you are going and how to get there? We can all say we want a "successful" business. But what does that really mean? How do you quantify it and in what timeframe? What are the steps to get there? Have a conversation with us and we can help you figure it out!
