Creating a Brand in the Wedding Industry

written by

Jac

As you will see on the blog this month we are taking a deeper look into branding. Personally this is one of my favourite subjects and I love how branding itself has evolved over the last ten years. The Academy itself has gone on it’s own branding journey and I enjoyed each part of it, although there were some scary moments along the way. For the next 4 Tuesday’s on Academy TV we are going to take you on a branding journey of your own.

I wanted to kick this mini series off with a look at creating a brand with meaning and purpose. How do you do that? What are the key elements? Well it is a big subject and I certainly can’t do it justice in one 5 minute video, however what I can do is give you some good pointers, which is exactly what this video is all about. Below are the points that I delve into in more detail in this episode”

  • Why laying a solid foundation is so important
  • Create a set of core values for your brand
  • Identify your dream client
  • Get your client excited with branding they LOVE
  • Take time to build strong relationships
