Personal Branding with Ben Baker.
I have a good friend in the business, one I have known for sometime, Ben Baker. Ben is one of those rare types that are actually insightful and forward thinking when it comes to the promotional product marketing world.
Here is Ben’s Story and Video
What differentiates us? Take away all the marketing speak, all the hype and all broken promises in this business and you get us. We have worked for our business to business clients for over 20 years to make them more valuable to their individual clients. We are not in this business for the awards or the glory. We are here to actually make a difference. We dive deep into our client’s businesses to understand what they do, what they care about, who their clients are and why their clients should care about them. Only by understanding what differentiates them in their marketplace can we develop a brand story that is relevant and engaging to the right audience.
It is a process that takes time and trust from both sides.
It’s about doing the real work to position you for the future, so that people listen to what you do, understand what you do, and care enough to want to engage. There is no magic wand. Success, to us, is about working beside you and producing the work that connects you with customers in a deep and significant way.
What do we do? We work side by side with you, to design and execute your end-to-end brand strategy. We work with mid-sized companies to take their brand and their companies to the next level. We help you tell your brand story, better, so that you can grow in an effective way and attract larger and more profitable clients. And in the end. . .
We consult, we teach and we speak on brand, message, market, vision and value.
Trust is everything. We work hard to earn your trust. Take the time to get to know us and ask us the hard questions. Satisfy yourself that we understand you, your objectives and your values
The philosophy is simple: reduce noise and increase focus. We want to equip you to find your best story and tell it better than ever before.
What is our process? We are experts at formulating the questions that engage your entire team. And, we apply our insights to land on the messages that will move your market.
We want to be your active partner in developing solutions that are specific to your requirements and creating messages that inspire.
No one is an expert in everything. There are some things that require an outsider’s eyes and ears to create a brand that resonates. That’s why they call us. And, our team is designed like a great triage team: When we need expertise that’s outside of our core expertise, we tap into a network of close relationships we’ve cultivated and curated over the past 20 years. So you get the very best, matched to your specific needs.
When you bring us to the table your success is our success. We work with you to Create Your LIVING brand, one that truly represents who you are and who you want to become going forward.
