Having a business that portrays a professional image has always been important, but the ability to trade in a global marketplace makes this all the more important. Gone are the days when you could depend on the fact that your customers will be stopping into your shop to discover how charming and professional you are. In those crucial moments before a buying decision, those who dont know you will often judge on appearances - if it walks like a duck, theyll quickly conclude its a duck. And, in most cases, this occurs before youve ever had the opportunity to make your big splash.

From the crisp lines of your logo to the personality you convey with your packaging, dont skimp on your overall brand appearance. Despite what your momma may have told you, whats on the outside really does count - at least when it comes to portraying your brand.

The overall look of your brand can be likened to coordinating a terrific outfit to wear on the all-important first date. You may have a great dinner jacket, or the perfect little black dress - but if you show up looking like you just rolled out of bed, chances are youll be spending next weekend sitting at home...alone.

Like a chain, your brand is only as strong as its weakest link. That said, select each component accordingly.
