If there was a way I could package my service in a pink box with a sticker in the image of my own face, I would. I've yet to figure one out, though, so in the meantime I have to blog. :) @ Rebecca - Very good point. It's so easy to hang up your shingle and then look around saying, "Oh Shit. What now?" Thanks for stopping by IttyBiz - it's great to have you. Believe me, Michael. If there was a way I could package my service in a pink box with a sticker in the image of my own face, I would.

I've found just being myself and getting my name out there helps but I want people to think of me when they need a writing job done. I guess we all need to find a bigger way to make a statement or we'll get lost in the multitude of nameless faces across the world.

A brand does not convey ability. It’s not supposed to. A brand is supposed to convey consistency. well said. I tend to deal with small clients and there number one comment when we first discuss their business is that they want to stand out from the competition. when i tell them that part of that would be setting up a consistent brand they tend to get reluctant. i don't need a brand, i just want all my boxes to be pink and closed shut with a sticker with my logo on it. o.k. then no brand, we'll just work on your image.

She doesn’t need to. She wears tuxedo pants and does funny dances on her talk show and wears minimal make-up". That is interesting...I wonder how deliberate that was or was it just a matter of her personality/lifestyle that inadvertently created this brand...hmmm! “Ellen Degeneres has a very solid brand but she doesn’t wear a shirt that says “Ellen” on it.
