We all are well versed with the fact that a brand can not be successful overnight, here we are not talking about fame from one viral video because such fame comes and goes with a blink of an eye.
2. What is brand identity?
Brand identity is a collection of various elements that a business creates to portray the right image of the business in front of customers. It
is more than designing the right logo and placing it on the packaging or mounting it above the front door. It is about crafting the brand's
overall personality that brings out the core element of your brand's DNA.

5. If you are a believer in shakespeare's words in
romeo and juliet's play, "what's in a name,"
then you probably soon run out of business, as
in the business world, the brand name is
everything. It indicates what your business is
associated with and helps consumers to
recognize and distinguish it from the rest. A
strong and powerful brand name gets
recognized widely and leaves a permanent mark
on consumers' minds. For example, the most
common thing we use when we want toothpaste
in india, we say we need colgate. The word
"colgate" is actually the name of the brand,
while the actual product is toothpaste.

7. How do colors matter? Well, it does matter a
lot. It gives a push to the visual branding
elements. Our brain immediately triggers the
name when we see a certain color
combination; for example, one can recognize
google with its color; the same goes with
mastercard and many more.
Colors trigger emotions and give meaning,
while choosing a color palette considers
human psychology, trends, context, and
culture.

8. Every business, be it small, medium or
large, needs a logo, period. In fact, it is
very hard to find a business without a logo.
We all can recognize five rings linked
together as the Olympics, two interlocking
circles as Mastercard, swoosh as NIKE, and
the list goes on.
How would you recognize them if there were
no logos? When a consumer sees a logo again,
the brain quickly registers it and thinks, "Oh, I
know that brand."

by businesses in all materials.
