As a small business owner, you must keep wondering why all these marketing gurus stress so much on building your brand by preparing the brand identity kit. What significant difference does this investment can bring to your company? If so, then, trust me, using a consistent set of brand identity can help you to pick a good deal of business from market and establish yourself as one of the “trustworthy” players in the market.Let us peek-in on the 15 reasons why small business owners like you needs a brand identity kit:1. Well-printed brand marketing collateral helps you keep your feet firmly in the market ground. It helps your clients look at you as an established, stable professional, which whom they would like to do business with. The professional-looking brand kit also depicts your commitment towards your professional life.2. No doubt, with ‘appealing’ marketing collateral, you can attract both types of clients – those who want to work with a credible company and can get lure by the look and feel of your collateral and also those who make business decisions by how professional your material looks like. You can win the heart and business of both the types of clients with your well-defined and well-designed brand identity kit.3. One of the important impressions you need to establish yourself in the market is – credibility. A professional-looking logo helps you look credible to your potential customers and easily make your place in the market.4. An important role of a brand identity kit is to get in the minds of the targeted customers. It is often seen that it is easy for people to remember logos or other images than descriptions or theories. With that concept at work, you can get to more and more people so that they can contact you at the hour of need.5. For those potential customers who lay great emphasis on how you have positioned yourself in a market, your brand identity kit can help you seek an edge over other competitors.6. If you try to under-estimate the importance of uniquely and well-designed printed collateral by using open sources such as home designed material or material designed and printed with the help of Microsoft software, your customer will get a similar “home-made”, “not-so-professional” impression for your services and thus will pay you accordingly.7. Incase in future, you decide to sell your business for some reason, the marketing collateral can help you gain some good capital for the credibility, sustainability, and competitiveness it brings along.8. Irrespective of the business level you operate up on, you need a brand to have an identity other than you as an individual or a face or representative if operating on a larger scale.9. Your brand kit brings along a sense of “security” and “stability” for you in the eyes of your customers. It helps you show being in the market for some time and help build trust for you in the market.10. If you use abbreviation or any not-so-common words in your company’s name, your logo can help you define your business to the targeted customers via visual depiction.11. Same goes with the “difficult-to-pronounce” and “hard-to-remember” company’s name. In such cases also, an approachable logo image that gets into the minds of people can help your customers to count on you at the hour of need.12. If you operate a business that is not seen or listen often, you can seek help of your logo to show your customers what you actually do with the help of graphics.13. You can use your company’s logo to portray anything that you want to convey – from the type of business you do to the working methodology that you follow to win business. The more self-explanatory the logo is, the more chances of you getting more business. This can also help you effectively beat the competition.14. You may serve an industry where having a logo is an industry practice, a compliance. This way you meet one of the primary expectations of your customers.15. Other than professional reasons, you may consider getting your company’s brand kit developed for personal reasons – for the feeling of ownership, responsibility, answerability, and self-confidence.So, when are you getting your brand kit ready?

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BRAND AND BRAND IDENTITY?Brand is the way someone perceives your business, its a gut feeling. It encompasses every point of contact that a business has with outside world. This could be everything from the way a staff member conducts them selves, language used or a web site. The identity is part of the brand and focuses on the way your brand is perceived visually.WHAT ARE THE MAIN FUNCTIONS OF A BRANDNavigation – to enable your business to stand out from your competition. To aid customers in navigating the huge array of competition and pick you out.Reassurance – to provide reassurance to clients that they are making the right choice in choosing your company by communicating the quality of your service or product. Taking trust out of the buying process is key to a successful sales process.Engagement – to help customers to identify with your company through the use of imagery and message. Without engagement your product or service will only compete on price.WHAT ARE THE CORE ELEMENTS OF A BRAND IDENTITY?The identity is made up of a series of visual items which form a system. The strength of the system is in creating a visual language that is easy for a customer to understand, making it easy for the business to communicate their message and values.When designing an identity it is essential to have mastery of all the individual core elements to enable them to be combined into a powerful visual language for your business. The success of the brand identity will succeed or fail on the consistency and quality of the elements and how they are used.APPROACH TO DESIGNING A BRANDIt is important to understand the commercial and academic reasons for a strong brand and its structure. How many businesses and designers make choices purely based on aesthetic reasons? How many businesses make decisions on their own branding on their own personal taste rather than their target market? More than you would think, I would say.Strong brand design is the art of creating and combining all of the core elements of a brand from the ground up. An essential element of the brand design process is to get the business focused, to enable it to become a brand. A brand needs to be simple and easy to understand. This allows the creation of a strong brand which provide navigation, reassurance and engagement in a customers target markets.

Your first step to building your brand is understanding yourself.Our research with executives has shown us that there are 6 components that make up your brand – your values, mission, goals, talents, behavioral style and habits.A little digression is in order here. What we have found is that you will be most effective if you force yourself to prioritize decisions into groups of three. Research indicates that a person should limit their attention to three tasks or thoughts. Boiling a world of infinite possibilities down to three alternatives makes it easy for you to stay focused and others to see a consistency in different dimensions of your behavior and value creation. Anything more than three and a person can become overextended and confused.While you read the rest of this article, think about the most important, critical three points for each of the categories.Values in your lifeWhat’s important to you? Typically, people choose words like:Peace, harmony, justice, fairness, honesty, family, integrity, trust, meritocracyWhichever you choose, your decisions will become infinitely easier when your values are clear. Other people will be able to predict your behavior and align themselves accordingly.Your primary missionsThese are things you strive for and believe in. A mission is your vision of something that you’ll never say is done-at least not in this lifetime. A mission is not like a goal that can be measured. How will your missions make a difference to other individuals and society? Powerful missions attract powerful supporters and they will help you achieve them.Most important goalsIt is great to have many goals but which ones are worthy of your best attention and efforts? Remember, you can have anything you want in your life. Picking your most important three is a challenge because most people have many goals that, when viewed in retrospect, are not truly significant. Are all your goals work related? Think about your work/life balance.Personal MasteryEveryone has exceptional talents. Few people spend their lives focusing on a few talents and thus create personal mastery. Yet these are the people we remember, the ones who create breakthroughs and really touch the people with whom they interface. Only recently, has there been research that shows that this differentiates top executive leadership and the second tier. Top leaders achieve mastery on a few select areas. There is no one set of talents in a top leader, just the act of creating mastery at selected talents is what makes the difference for that individual. So what would you choose to master? How will your selected talents affect others?Behavioral styleWe all have a natural behavioral style. It is never right or wrong except when we do not adapt to the people we are trying to influence. Understanding yourself and how you affect others provides tremendous payback in achieving your goals and dreams. Fortunately, there are powerful assessment tools that can help you understand yourself.HabitsAsk 5 people what they see you do regularly as your personal “process” to successfully navigate life’s challenges. Write everything down they tell you and reflect on the list. What patterns do you see? Are your habits working for you or fighting you?Can you identify the top three items for you in each of these six categories? If you can, you’ll place yourself in the top one percent of all the people on the planet because so few people ever do this.If you want to be truly successful invest in yourself to get the knowledge you need to find your unique factor. When you find it and focus on it and persevere your success will blossom. – Sidney Madwed

This is one of those topics that some people feel pretty strongly about. There are probably those old-school business practice professors who will say that any good idea is first set into motion with a strong written plan. I fall somewhere in the middle with former Apple “evangelist” and Garage Technologies Ventures founder Guy Kawasaki; “A great plan won’t make a lousy idea successful, and a lousy plan won’t necessarily stop a great idea.”

Here is where I think the merits of the business plan truly exist; it opens your eyes and raises questions you might not otherwise consider. A good deal of research does go into crafting a well thought-out business plan. Market research, an outline of your target demographic, competitive positioning to set you apart from the competition; all of these are important things to think about. Certainly you don’t need a business plan to be able to accurately summarize where you are headed, but some people are the type that benefit from this kind of structure.

Who needs a business plan?

If you are thinking about writing a business plan, chances are it’s because you have hopes of raising money from an investor to help fund your project. Like me, you think that if you can show enough foresight and creative thinking, some angel somewhere is going to be swept of their feet by the picture of ingenuity you paint. Truly, this is the most likely scenario in which you would need a well thought-out business plan. Often an investor is going to want to see that you’ve accounted for potential problem areas and have considered how exactly it is you are going to grow. A business plan makes total sense in this case.

However, to be brutally honest, you have next to no chance of raising money from an investor. UNLESS said investor is a friend or family member, no business plan is going to convince a big-wig VC to throw money at a start-up clothing line. Unless of course you’ve brought the next Alexander McQueen or Zac Posen on (in which case you wouldn’t be reading this!) board to run your project, you are just way too big a risk.

The Wall Street Journal wrote a story covering a Babson College study titled ” Do Start-ups Really Business Plans.” Here is the summary:

“This study examined whether writing a business plan before launching a new venture affects the subsequent performance of the venture. The data set comprised new ventures started by Babson College alums who graduated between 1985 and 2003. The analysis revealed that there was no difference between the performance of new businesses launched with or without written business plans. The findings suggest that unless a would-be entrepreneur needs to raise substantial startup capital from institutional investors or business angels, there is no compelling reason to write a detailed business plan before opening a new business.”

I think this study is right-on. Looking back at the business plan developed by my business partner and myself, I see many helpful components, but nothing that is make-or-break when it comes to the development of a business. The only noteworthy observation is just how incredibly far-off our financial projections were (and I don’t mean for the better!).

At the end of the day as the above article says, you just need to get to it and start making money. Be flexible and willing to adapt along the way all while making a solid effort to learn. However, if you do still insist on writing a business plan, there are numerous resources online (which I won’t get into here) that can guide you through the process. The general rule of thumb is to keep it short and sweet, as no would-be investor will spend more than 10-15 minutes max on your idea. Online sites like Bplans.com offer software that will walk you through the entire creation process (a clothing manufacturer example here ) and can be beneficial if you don’t have any traditional business background.

Personal Anecdote:

As mentioned above I did write a business plan for my brand, circulated it amongst 4-5 potential investors (I’m talking guys who invest millions of dollars in tech start-ups), and got nothing more than an education out of it. It was not a lost cause in my eyes simply because of the experience I gained in pitching an idea to a money-man. In the interest of full disclosure, our plan did end up helping us land $30k but that was more due to relationships and networking. I’ll get into that soon.

In recent years technology has made tremendous advancements. These advancements have reshaped the organisations by creating their business functions integrated and streamlined. Beyond the standard office computers and smart devices, organisations are now implementing new software’s and latest technology equipment’s to run their operations smoothly.

It is a powerful tool to make your presentation more attractive and engaging. If you want visual effect, collaboration tools, easy access, then PowerPoint will be the perfect option.

Nowadays in every field, there is huge competition. Business and professional firms use the presentation as a tool to educate, train, motivate the internal and external audience. At any point in time, you may require to give a presentation. The presentation is an essential part of branding because the presentation is the primary source which companies use for communication with clients, general public etc. The presentation demonstrates the company profile, and it’s the only tool which makes sure that all your representatives are turning into sales. A well-designed presentation shows presenters professionalism and also builds organisations corporate image.

Presenters are mainly of two types. Firstly, the great ones, who with their commanding charisma, speaking skills and great presentation styles can grasp the audience attention and secondly the Mediocre one who only focuses on the content of the presentation. They come up with great with great content and speak amazingly but fails in their presentation skills. Many times, lacks in gaining audience attention.

You may have complex data for presentation, a great content will be a scrap if not delivered in an entertaining way. Templates contains layout, colour, fonts, effects. powerpoint template helps to convey the information in an attractive way, grabbing the audience attention throughout the topic.

Benefits of an Effective Presentation:

Adding images to illustrate point will surely make your presentation engaging. PowerPoint allows the user to add creative clipart’s, attractive fonts to the presentation.

A worker shortage might be excellent news for the economy! Maybe, just maybe, firms will awake and see workers’ substantial contribution to their success. Some CEOs take unconscionable sums and destroy their firm’s value, unlike many frontline workers who create value. During the pandemic, CEOs took vast sums as they laid-off workers. Some firms sought bankruptcy protection, but hat didn’t stop their greedy CEOs from snatching hefty bonuses.

We have a worker shortage and firms are scrambling to hire whomever is willing. Some firms, like McDonalds have paid signing bonuses. Canada’s Loblaw and its competitors paid a bonus to frontline workers when the pandemic began. They stopped it after three months in unison with their competitors. When government confronted them about this collusion, they claimed it happened independently. Go figure! It’s like you caught your three-year-old with her hand in the cookie jar and she said, Mom, “Cookie Monster did it!”

Worker Shortage Inevitable With Shoddy Treatment

Loblaw’s behavior disturbs me. During the bonus period, profits soared. Per se, that’s no problem. I favor firms making profits. To be sure, I am against government taxing profits. But paying workers the bonus during the pandemic shouldn’t hinge on profits. It was just right. Meanwhile, my wife and I shopped at a Loblaw store and workers continued their excellent service despite Loblaw’s slight.

Leaders must realize frontline workers are the firm’s foundation and treat them well, not as cogs turning out CEOs bonuses! When employers treat workers like machines, they disengage. Gallup said, over several decades, they and other researchers found a strong link between employees’ workplace engagement and the company’s overall performance. Yet employers refuse to accept this. But there is good news: surveys show some firms break the mold and treat workers with respect: Cisco, Apple, Accenture, IBM, FedEx are a few.

Next Quarter’s Earnings Drives Businesses

Companies see next quarter as the prize, so they exploit workers and fudge next quarter’s numbers. I repeat: I am against government taxing business. However, I favor the Biden Build Back Better provision to tax share buybacks that the House passed, and it is before the Senate, even if it might have only a modest effect on share buybacks. Companies shouldn’t be spending billions buying back shares while exploiting workers.

Firms should present to shareholder meetings options to use buyback funds. Choices might include effects of paying bonuses to frontline workers with buyback funds. Shareholders should hear about potential strategic investments, too. Another option is stopping buy-backs for five years after layoffs. Executives, too, shouldn’t get bonuses within five years of layoffs. We must get rid of worker exploitation that enhances CEO bonuses.

Restaurants need to encompass considerable marketing avenues for the sake of success. Without publicity and marketing, there are chances that the restaurant may not survive in the market. But with thorough planning and enactment, the restaurant’s promotion can grab the customer’s attention just like that.

The restaurant business is quite tough. It is difficult for the owners to flourish in this thrift and with very low profits. Restaurant owners are enthusiastic about food because not much profit is left after paying all the mandatory expenses like produce, wages, upkeep, and maintenance. Better so than eternally, restaurants publicity and marketing are necessary.

Some restaurant owners thoroughly expand their profit margin by contracting their business prototype and resemblance to others, assembling a franchise, spreading their reputation, and cultivating a future passive income. While others choose to concentrate on their flagship eatery, trusting that quality over quality is vital for drumming up future business.

Smart advertising encourages the restaurant owner to create a good reputation in the market and reach customers who might not even have heard about the restaurants near them. It also promotes the restaurants with discounts, offers, special occasions, and new items to the menu.

For marketing purposes, the best way is social media. Whether people are seeking someplace to dine in safely or looking for the best takeaway service, they turn on the social media app. The more the traffic drives to your specific website or page, the more you will succeed in this business.

What the advertising brings to the restaurants

It helps to target customers, as if the customers like the taste of the food at a specific restaurant, they will start recommending that place to their colleagues and friends. Advertising helps target particular types of customers and proves to be more effective.
Advertising certainly helps to stay competitive in the business. The competitors will be advertising their specific establishment to the customers. They will assume that the establishment has lacked publicity, is less thriving, and offers less than the other competitors.
Publicity and advertisement are thoroughly an investment. If the restaurant owner is investing wisely, they will surely profit from that. But the amount to be spent on publicity depends upon the area and type of restaurant. Usually, casual and family-specific restaurants do not spend more on advertising, while fine-dining restaurants spend more because they must create a lavish image.
Publicizing can certainly help to develop crucial aspects of the restaurant’s reputation. Advertising fetches the customers by creating the business’s reputation in the community.
Hiring a marketing agency can reduce almost all of the burden regarding advertisement. A good social media marketing agency can maintain whatsoever the name’s niche and aesthetics through social media. Great brand recognition can lead to more followers, leading to more traffic to the site and a boost in orders.

With the passage of time, there has been continuous development in the world of solar energy, nuclear power, smart grid, electric vehicles, rail transportation, aerospace, aviation, and navigation. Therefore, this trend has increased requirements for power equipment performance. These days, the first generation of silicon materials is about to hit the theoretical limit that was originally determined. The third generation features a wider bandwidth, electron saturation, and thermal conductivity. In this article, we are going to talk about a new type of material called silicon carbide ceramics. And we will specifically discuss the applications of silicon carbide ceramics in different industries. Read on to find out more.

As far as potential is concerned, silicon carbide ceramic is the most mature choice. As a matter of fact, many of its indicators are much better than silicon. For example, it has a 300% higher bandwidth. Apart from this, the theoretical operational temperature of this material is 600 Celsius. Now, let’s talk about the different uses of this material.

Electric Vehicles

Since these modules can have a sustainable, intelligent, low carbon, and green development, we can say that the advantages of this material are primarily reflected in the following three aspects.

1. Simplification of the power supply Network and boosting the frequency

2. Increasing the temperature and reducing losses

3. Improving efficiency and reducing the volume

As far as power conversion is concerned, components made of silicon carbide cal can help improve performance. In electric models, the active load-bearing component is the electric motor. These motors have different rotational speeds. Therefore, these motors require repeated acceleration and acceleration during the process of driving. Therefore, the working condition is more complex compared to the speed regulating system.

Transmission Systems

If you have a silicon-based device, your best choice is are switch made from silicon carbide. This is because this material has an extremely low resistance. Therefore, it is an ideal choice for applications where high frequency and temperature are involved.

The thing is that this material can reduce the loss of power by up to five hundred percent. Moreover, it is possible to reduce weight and size by over 40%. Therefore, it can help have a positive impact on the grid configuration and adjustment of energy strategy.

Solar Energy Field

If you are looking for advice that can be used in solar inverters, silicon carbide is an ideal choice. It comes with a small size, reduced costs, and much higher efficiency. Typically, the conversion efficiency of these inverters is around 96%. But if silicon carbide is used, it is possible to increase the efficiency to 97.5%. In other words, these devices can help produce power losses by 25%. Apart from this, these inverters can help boost conversion efficiency significantly.

LED Lighting

These days, the popularity of LED devices that use silicon carbide is on the rise. The thing is that these LEDs are much brighter and can reduce the cost by up to 50%. They are 200% brighter than other types of lights.

Similarly, they have 10 times more thermal conductivity. In routine life, you can apply this type of lighting for different types of environments, such as color display devices, information screens, indoor lighting, and signal lights. The thing is that they can help reduce pollution and cost.
