Branding is why.  Marketing is how. Branding is your story. Marketing is how you tell it. Branding is emotional. Marketing is promotional. Branding earns loyalty. Marketing drives action. Branding is the foundation. Marketing is the structure. Branding is the being. Marketing is the doing. Branding is macro.  Marketing is micro. Branding defines trajectory. Marketing defines tactics. Branding is long-term. Marketing is short-term. Branding shapes culture. Marketing shapes campaigns. Branding is the promise of value. Marketing is the proof of value. These differentiations are so important. If you want sustainable growth, you need both. Without a solid brand, your marketing is just noise.  Without marketing, your brand has no audience. Get crystal-clear on your brand story first—your purpose, your promise, your personality. Then, amplify that story with strategic, targeted marketing so the right people actually hear it.
