00:00 – 00:30 “When you understand that brand is everything that you do. It’s what people say about you when you’re not in the room. It’s not about your logo and your colors and your jingle or your tagline or your slogan or all these catchy things that we, you know, the, the Mad Men days they did to make an accessible and make them think that we’re really smart and do these things. No, no, no. The practical tools that you need to create a great brand is synonymous with the tools you need to create a great business. If you don’t have those in place, your business isn’t set up for success.” — Karley Cunningham
