Clarify the core of your brand
“...is not an advertising slogan nor a description which will change with every communication. Essence should be a long term positioning which changes rarely and is more like a mission statement for a brand.”
Helena RubinsteinManaging Director and founder of the lab, a strategy company that focuses on branding and other related intangible issues

Do it Yourself or Engage Experts?
Outsiders avoid branding in a mirror
Keep objective perspective
Avoid internal battles and make decisions clear
![Page 23: Your Online Brand Preservation and Promotion](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022103109/53ffc2d78d7f7261088b4778/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Positioning:Strategy for the whole brand
Positioning statement that’s narrow enough to be specific to only you but broad enough to include who you’ll be;
It tells insiders how the brand should act
Brand voice that will anchor the visual and written tone of every brand communication;
It tells insiders how the brand should look, feel and speak
