Identify your goal
The reason we set goals is to provide direction and purpose.
When we set a goal, we are giving ourselves a target to strive for.

  • Where am I now?
  • Where do I want to get to?
  • How can I get there?
  • How will I know if I have arrived?
  • What’s holding me back?
  • Who can help me?

Find your niche
Finding your niche is about determining the focus of your business and then working to hone your skillset so you become an expert on that industry.

Brand voice is your brand’s personality; the unique way you present to the world.
Through a set brand voice and tone, your audience can get to know and understand your brand, as you create a dialogue. It is the chance for business leaders to express their brands’ unique persona and seamlessly build up relationships with the audience.
Here are some types of Brand Voice and companies that use them:
