If think of branding like a house you need a strong foundation and that is where your Brand strategy comes in.
It outlines the key elements of your brand, including your unique selling proposition (USP), target audience, brand personality, and messaging.

2. A Brand Identity
P.s Your brand identity is not just your logo.
Your brand identity is the visual representation of your brand. It includes your logo, color scheme, typography, and any other visual elements that are associated with your brand.
