"The task of marketing is simple - to understand how our products/services will fit into the life of our target customers in a way that will make their life better - and telling them that.  

It seems simple, right?
 
Unfortunately, most businesses are really good at telling the customer what it is they make or sell, but are not very good at communicating how it will make the customer's life better - which is THE KEY to making a sale and differentiating your products and services from the competition. 

Ninety-nine percent of the time when I consult with a company, this brand strategy and messaging is the first problem we have to solve."
