Don't Brand Before You Position

Branding is getting everyone to know you, plain and simple.
Positioning is getting people to want you because of your value.

Positioning leads to brand, but brand does not always lead to position.

Branding bombards it audience with a particular message. It's a big job and many smaller companies take it on when they don't have to.

If serviced properly, these customers can become reference accounts.
Then you can leverage them into larger sales.
