Module 5WorldWide Winners

brand

This module is about building brand awareness getting your online business out there letting people know who you are and what you have to offer. There are various ways of doing this you can use forums and other blogs related to your niche leave helpful and valuable comments, you need to establish yourself as a leader or expert in your field. DO NOT ADVERTISE!!!!.

Social networks are also a great way to get your brand to the public, this includes:
YouTube ,FaceBook , Twitter, Your blog and many more…

Video sharing sites (like YouTube) are great places for promotion and will drive masses of traffic to your site. Dean is covering video marketing in the last module.

One of the most important elements of succeeding with a new brand is a logo & story of the brand itself. These days you really have to stand out from the crowd and think outside of the box to make it work.

Produce a story around your brand or product, have a logo that looks great and that represents the overall visual impression of what you sell or what you offer.

Hi I’m Trevor
Twiter ID: Trevor_T_Jones
I am a student of Alex Jeffreys I have been looking around at fellow students blogs and came across yours. Definitely one of the best. I felt I had to leave a comment because your blog is simply, so inspirational and informative, It has given me hope and ideas to better mine.
It is so clean and fresh looking. I am always worried I overdo it myself, to much content you know. Your blog is just right. I would appreciate if you would pass comment on mine just to confirm I haven’t overdone it. On my blog I am doing a theme on successful internet marketers. Really like to know what you think as I am pretty new to all this layout stuff. I hope one day that I can write about your internet success. Keep up the good work

Avis:
Just finished the Starting with Marketing Academy Module 5 and agree with you on how valuable your brand can be–on that note I really like your logo!

Have you had a chance to make many of your own videos, yet? I am looking forward to that segment next week.

All the best,
Ralph

Hey Avis,

I have found from following your mentor Dean that branding is very important.

As long as you brand yourself in the right way of course, you have to give value for your viewers with great content so they want to not only come back to your site but also so they tell others how good your site is.

Word of mouth is the best form of advertising there is not only that but it’s free.

All the best,

James Howard

Your right James, providing great value is the key to getting life long viewers, if they like what they see hopely they will share the content and recommend others. Which is good for a long term business.

I’ve heard that Dean Holland’s program is really good. Just remember that your Logo should always be designed by a professional designer. A good logo is a reflection of your brand and will stand the test of time. It’s very difficult to re-brand and introduce a completely different logo later on – so it’s best to invest upfront for a quality logo design.

Research and find a good designer that can do it within your budget.

Dean Holland’s Marketing Program is good, if your starting out and want to know how to market your online business. I agree If you want a good logo design its better to get it done by professionals, you want a good representation of your company for now and the future.
