Brand Strategist Anna Beyerle Rosen reads her article, “⁠How We Use Brand Concepts to Build Better Brands⁠.”

Branding is a critical aspect of any business. It’s how you communicate the unique value that your product or service offers to your customers. It’s what makes you stand out from the competition and drives customer loyalty. When done right, branding can make or break a company—especially during an economic downturn when everyone’s spending is down or being more closely scrutinized. Focus Lab's Genina Ramirez reads, "Lead With Your Brand Through A Recession by Will Straughn."
