My work (I’m a writer, not a designer)

In today’s fast-paced business landscape, new ideas and brands constantly emerge. Entrepreneurs pitch their concepts in every corner like they’re newsies in the 1900s.

How do you make yourself heard in the marketing traffic jam?

The market is flooded with products offering similar values. Plant-based milk alternatives, vegan snacks, chocolates, low-calorie sodas, and smoothies — too much noise, too many options.

But in every category, there’s always one brand that stands out. And as consumers, we trust them and wait for new product launches. How do they manage to stand out?

By building a strong brand positioning that embodies their mission.

In today’s noisy world, consumer behavior has changed, and they now seek purpose-driven brands.

Millennial and Generation Z consumers want to shop at companies that align with their values. That’s why brands are trying to differentiate themselves from the competition.

Position your purpose with strong brand positioning.
