Welp, the stats are in. If you haven’t invested in your brand, your brand will probably die. Branding matters, and we’re showing you why. Harsh? Maybe. But here’s the tea: it doesn’t matter how cool or revolutionary your product is; if your branding doesn’t stand out, you’re just another face in the crowd. Branding is the heartbeat of your business; it’s the only thing you can do to stand out. Let’s face it, it won’t take long for imitators to replicate your innovative product, undercut your price, or outdo your convenience. Here are some stats on branding, and why it is the only thing that matters.
