Many business owners often confuse building branding with marketing, but it’s important to remember that sales are made from marketing efforts.

So don’t just focus on building your brand; ensure you also have a solid marketing strategy!
Marketing and branding are two crucial components of a successful business. Marketing is all about promoting your products or services through campaigns, promotions, and advertisements to encourage people to buy from you.
