Branding is more than just design. It is the sum of all impressions and experiences with a company across every touchpoint. A strong brand tells a coherent story that shapes how customers perceive and relate to a company. It is built on trust, promises kept, and standing for meaningful ideals. Good branding creates emotional connections that allow customers to see themselves in a company's products and services.
