Focus on delivering consistency that turns clients into your hype team. They’ll refer your business to others, amplifying your reach!

A distinct and memorable identity

"Posts by Beatrice alone prove her authority on the subject of branding on LinkedIn. I already found the advice she shares highly commendable, and then we scheduled a time to virtually meet and discuss how I can align my long-term goals of opening up an agency in the future with my personal brand. The valuable tips she shared have not only helped me avoid the starting out mistakes I was about to make, but also get way more clarity on my future aims. Hire her for your badass branding needs before you start working on anything else!"

"Working with Beatrice has been a real pleasure. She has taken the time from the very start to understand me as a person in order to understand the business I was building and help on the branding. She came up with plenty of interesting suggestions even before we worked together, helped set the framework, and provided me with great momentum at a critical building stage. I look forward to working together in the future and using B's energy for my brand!"

"Beatrice is truly a Badass! The way she is able to ask questions about your brand that are on the one hand extremely deep and on the other hand super revealing is really a super power of hers!It is through her help that I am able to fully revamp the message that I send out, so that it becomes more and more true to my own essence.I would recommend Beatrice to anyone who wants to revamp their brand, and wants their own Badass to come out!"

Meet ROO

Let’s address the marsupial in the room: What’s the deal with the kangaroo, Beatrice?

Though I live and work in Thailand, I’m originally from Australia, so a ‘roo seemed the natural choice to be my brand mascot.

Plus, y’know, a shade-wearing kangaroo with a baseball bat? How badass is that?!

Stop Wasting money

  • Unable to consistently secure high-ticket clients
  • Throwing down $10K on a website and not generating leads
  • Having inadequate market presence

Because
of:

  • Inconsistency
  • Missing real differentiation
  • Meaningless fluff content
Here are two ways I can make those go away:

What is branding strategy?

Branding strategy influences your brand's perception when your audience isn't in the room—the difference between a revered legend and a forgotten relic.
It's what can make your brand stand out in a crowd and creates guiding principles to stand by for the rest of the business activities.

What are the critical elements of a strong brand strategy for businesses?

A strong brand strategy includes:

- Brand internal identity development
- Unique value proposition
- Target audience identification
- Competitive analysis
- Touchpoint evaluation
- Differentiation
- Positioning
- Voice and tone
- Messaging
- Storytelling
- Visual identity
- Brand guidelines and standards
- Brand experience evaluation

What common mistakes do businesses make with their branding strategy?

Common pitfalls include:

- Overcomplicating the brand identity.
- Inconsistent or outdated visual elements.
- Trying to copy what competitors are doing.
- Lack of personality integrated into the branding.
- Failing to align branding strategy with business objectives.
- Neglecting to monitor and adapt to evolving market trends.
- Failing to assess and refine the brand strategy over time.
- Prioritizing logo, website, and visuals over foundations.
- Ignoring or misunderstanding the target audience.
- Unclear, generic, or conflicting brand messaging.
- The list goes on.

What's the difference between a rebrand and a branding refresh? And how do I know which is right for me?

Rebrand:

- A complete reinvention and overhaul of your brand's identity, strategy, and positioning.

Brand Refresh:

- A strategic update and revitalization of your existing brand while preserving its essence.I

'll ask you targeted questions to assess your current branding strategy, gauge your satisfaction, and understand your objectives and vision, helping us determine whether a rebrand or brand refresh is the right path for you.

How do I find the right brand strategist for my business, and what should I look for in their expertise and experience?

Finding the perfect brand strategist is like hunting for a unicorn with a trusty bow and arrow. Look for someone with a track record of slaying brand dragons, a sixth sense for storytelling, and a personality that vibes with yours like a duet from the rock 'n' roll gods.

Why should I bother with a brand strategist? I have a graphic designer and a coach.

A brand strategist is the master conductor orchestrating the symphony of your business. While a graphic designer adds visual flair and a coach offers guidance, a brand strategist changes how your entire brand is perceived, focusing on:

- Done with you to capture unique vision and identity.
- A guiding strategy for all your business activities.
- Uncovering what sets the brand apart.
- Getting leads over vanity metrics.
- Understanding your audience.
- A collective purpose.

Sure, you could Google brand strategy and follow those guides, but are they really going to solve what you're struggling to pinpoint yourself?

Can a brand strategist help me align my brand messaging and visual elements across different platforms and channels?

Hecks yeah! A brand strategist will whip your scattered messaging and visuals into a synchronized symphony, ensuring your brand's voice is loud and clear, whether on a billboard, social media, or even a carrier pigeon.

How can you help me define and refine my brand identity?

Like the Michelangelo of the business world, I'll chisel away fluffy excess, revealing the essence of your brand's soul refining your values, personality, voice, and visual elements, leaving you with a masterpiece (brand identity) that resonates with your target audience.

What is branding strategy not?


- A catchy slogan
- A pretty graphic
- Your website design
- Guided by marketing
- Something that's "done for you."

What is the difference in the approach for each, and how can you guide me through the process?

- A comprehensive reassessment and realignment of your brand's strategy, purpose, and positioning.

- Deep dive into target audience analysis, market research, and competitive landscape evaluation.

- It aims to redefine your brand's value proposition, messaging, and overall brand experience.
