Today, we're constantly learning that this question has only one real answer. Your brand's name, logo, colour scheme (and so much more) can be the deciding factor on whether your customer invests in you, or your competitor.
But where did it all start?
Historically, "brand" has roots in the Old Norse word "Brandr"-the act of burning a personalised mark onto possessions. (Khan & Mufti, 2007). Over time, these unique imprints morphed into a tool for tradespeople to distinguish themselves from others, becoming the field of branding we know today.
Fast-forward to today
In the 21st century, branding has evolved beyond just uniqueness. With the advent of mass media and global commerce, it is one of the most pivotal aspects of business, fostering emotional and psychological relationships between customers and companies (Khan & Mufti, 2007).
