Branding questions?




Over the years, I've come across so much conflicting information about branding that I've become quite annoyed about it. I can imagine how confusing it must be to a new business owner when they are trying to create their own brand by following this conflicting advice.

To fix that, I'm going to develop some resources to help you navigate the choppy branding waters. (I think that's about as far as I can go with that metaphor.)

To make the resources relevant to you, let me know what your top questions are on the topic, the things that befuddle you, what you'd most like to know.

You can leave your thoughts in the comments below or email me at colleen@lakeviewpr.com.

I appreciate your time in helping me with this project!

It all starts with a great slide. Why do we use slides? Basically, because we humans have poor memories and even worse concentration. Slides are to used to engage another sense (vision) in addition to hearing to increase the audience's attention and retention. Although there are a lot of different numbers out there, experts seem to agree that you will remember a very small percentage of what you hear (about 10 per cent), about 20 per cent of what you read and about 80 per cent of what you see. That's why a visually arresting slide makes you and your presentation much more effective. How to create a great slide Unless someone gives you a set amount of slides (a completely inane practice), don't worry about the number of slides in your deck. The number of slides has absolutely

Dry Stone Festival 2017

We love our clients. Our most entertaining project this month is for the Frontenac Heritage Foundation, sponsors of this year's Dry Stone Festival. Each year, Dry Stone Canada finds a location to restore or build walls, bridges or other structures using the dry stone technique. If you've seen photographs of rural Ireland, you've seen dry stone walls stretching for miles. These walls are build with stone only -- no mortar -- and last for hundreds of years. It's an ancient art that visitors to the festival can observe or actually participate in and learn when they register for a workshop. There's even a free kid's workshop where they too can learn and practice their new dry stone skills. This year's event is being held at St. Mark's Anglican Church in Barriefield Village, Kingston, Ontario on September 30 and October 1. Barriefield residents are taking part by offering other activities as well. There will be walking tours, scheduled tours of S
