Branding Basics
Where products are made in the factory, brands are created in the mind.
5:30PM - 7:30PM
In today's saturated marketplace, branding is key to separating your business from the pack. Where products are made in the factory, brands are created in the mind; and, Kara Claypool has managed to help develop distinctive branding - twice. With a financial background, she grew from junior accountant to senior manager of finance and strategic planning at Big Rock Brewery, before embarking on her present mission as Senior Vice President at Jugo Juice.
