Build The Brand You Legacy
Build Your Brand Equity
Whether you are a baby boomer or a teenager, someone who has already got a lot of content or a newbie just getting started online, there is one thing that you should focus on if you want to build a powerful brand that will stand the test of time. That is your brand legacy.
You need to have a vision for your brand if you want it to be super successful.
Building Brand Equity
The very best brands have lasted for many years and passed down through generations. This did not happen by accident. To build a brand that will become a legacy – you need to work hard at it and be completely immersed in it.
From the moment you open your eyes each day you should be asking yourself the question – What can I do today to improve my brand and to grow it? When Gianni Versace was assassinated his brand did not die with him. Why not? – because it was designed to be a legacy brand.
