The 3 biggest mistakes of bad branding
(and how to fix each one)
Mistake #1
No one recognizes your brand. If your logo, colors, and communication change all the time, your audience can’t remember you.
👉 Result:
– a forgettable brand
– low brand recall
– you become “just another one” in the market
Solution #1
Build brand recognition
✔ A strong logo (with variations)
✔ A strategically designed color palette
✔ Consistent visual communication across all touchpoints
Good branding is repetition with intention.
Mistake #2
You compete only on price. When your brand looks generic, you enter a market full of informal competitors and the only battle becomes: who charges less.
👉 Result:
– your work loses value
– clients don’t see the difference
– growth becomes harder
Solution #2
Clear positioning
✔ Define who you are
✔ Who you speak to
✔ And why people should choose you over your competitors
Well-positioned brands don’t fight over price —
they create desire.
Mistake #3
Confusing communication on social media. You post a bit of everything, but nothing truly connects.
👉 Result:
– the wrong followers
– low engagement
– difficulty attracting your ideal audience
Solution #3
Tell your story the right way.
✔ Clear purpose
✔ Consistent storytelling
✔ The same message, repeated in different ways
People don’t buy just what you do — they buy how your brand makes them feel.
Extra
Colors aren’t chosen just because they look good. They communicate emotions, values, and positioning.
Color psychology > personal taste
Branding is strategy, not randomness.
Branding is not just a logo. It’s strategy, clarity, and intention.
If your brand isn’t communicating this, maybe the problem isn’t your product — but how it’s being presented.
