Brand Atlanta: Two Strong Firms Profiled

by Chris Brown on Tuesday, June 9, 2009

Before each blog post, I tend to cruise the internet, read the comments on my blog, check my google alerts, read the news of the industry and so on.  This morning I found two websites about branding, both new to me, both out of Atlanta GA. 

Because I run a branding firm, they were both of interest to me… And since my husband and I lived in Atlanta the first year we were married, I have fond memories of Atlanta too.   

So, take a quick look at each of these branding companies and check out their positioning, messaging, graphic design and tone.   Here’s a mini profile of each of these branding firms:

Brand Me Live – led by Melissa Johnson.  Known for branded entertainment & has a background with P&G.  New community membership site. Lots of video resources.  Upper end classy but funky and fun too.  Her Velvet Suite Marketing group includes my friend and collegue Rachel Daniel.

Brand Illuminationled by Tim Halloran.  Part brand therapist, part brand strategy consultant.  Cut his teeth on branding at Coca-Cola.  A bit tongue in cheek. Impressive client list. Has an interesting take on the brand winners and losers of 2009.

What are your thoughts on these 2 branding companies?

I have to admit Branding is everything in business, but without any means of strategic marketing be it online or offline, your brand still would draw less customers.

I’ve known this site brandmelive.com that helps and guides and individual or startup company on how to create your own unique brand that stands out from the rest. In less than a month, I assure you, you will start to experience great amount of success on your brand or business with the efforts you put in. Believe me, I’m one of the million that benefited from that site.
