Before I joined forces with Corey at Evolved Finance
back in late 2014, I had spent the last 5 years at adidas,
specifically working in the golf division.
adidas is a company with an extremely recognizable and
powerful brand. Likely one of the most recognizable brands in the
world. Although I tried to resist drinking the Kool-Aid, the power
of the adidas brand has me likely wearing adidas shoes for the rest
of my life (I wasn’t a Nike guy, to begin with,
anyway).
But shaping a brand like adidas is dramatically
different than shaping a brand for a small online business, isn’t
it?
That’s where our latest podcast guest, Michelle
Garside, shines some light for us.
During my conversation with Michelle, we
discuss:
How Michelle took her years of experience working on
brand strategies for massive corporations and channeled it into
supporting small online businesses
What is a “brand” and what makes a “brand”
successful?
What does a small business owner need to be aware of
when it comes to their brand?
What are the most important components of branding a
small online business?
How can a clear and defined brand make your business
more profitable?
