What is a brand?
![Page 6: Creating a brand name](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052303/5480819fb4af9fc3158b5df4/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
What is a brand anyway?
FACE OF YOUR WORK
"You are essentially creating a "face" for what students will
experience in your classroom..." -Terry Heick, The Importance of Branding Your Classroom
![Page 7: Creating a brand name](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052303/5480819fb4af9fc3158b5df4/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
A brand can be...
• a name an image
• a quick, simple, and memorable statement
• what you are known for
• an emotion, a perception "It has been said that learners may
not remember much about what you
teach them, but they'll never forget
how you made them feel. That's
brand." - Terry Heick

reputation, both online and in real life." -Forbeswoman, The First Step to Building Your Personal Brand

contact you - your program and practice should be there." - Gwyneth Jones, Transparency is the New Black
