New Business Messaging and Why It’s Important to Tell Your Story

New Business Launches and the Power of Telling Your Story HS has helped a lot of new businesses name, brand, launch and relaunch. This often includes logos, business cards, signage and other materials. But as a new business, it’s also important to consider the power of your story, too. Storytelling is an art form as old as man. It can be quite effective in your branding, advertising and sales, but also your everyday conversations with customers and prospects. It’s not uncommon for any business owner to be “too close” to their business and consequently struggle with telling their story. That’s…

Reconsidering Rebranding

In the last couple years, we’ve had to relearn and reconsider a lot of things. Maybe that’s part of the reason so many companies have approached HenkinSchultz about rebranding. As a society, we’ve relearned how to go to school. We’ve relearned what the “office” means. And we’ve relearned how we shop, connect and interact. So it’s not surprising that businesses and organizations are reconsidering their personal brand and how they communicate about their business. What Is Involved in Rebranding Rebranding doesn’t have to be as daunting as you may think. It doesn’t necessarily mean changing your logo, your signage, your…
