How to Brand a Small Business. Small business branding is a lot like small business marketing. You have to be careful about how you present yourself to attract customers. Most small businesses rely on a single product or service, making it hard to define a brand. However, there's no need to settle for a generic, boring name when you can give your business a distinctive identity by developing a solid brand.

Web design trends aren’t always a nod to what’s new. Take the popularity of the Synthwave aesthetic. It harkens back to the early 1980s – years before the world wide web was even invented. It’s gaudy and impractical. Yet it’s hard to deny both the charm and the feelings of nostalgia it evokes. For me, it conjures images of Miami Vice , big hair, and the artificial sounds of new wave music.

The packaging design of fireworks is at once easy and hard to ignore. As a category, it’s just loud enough to catch your eye, then dismiss as undeserving of analysis, or even a second look. The defining traits of the genre — bright colors, cartoonish illustrations, evocative names — can melt into one campy swath. But focus for a moment, and you’ll see something else: a reflection of pop culture, a barometer for the interests of the cis male population, and a surprisingly sophisticated design.

Thomas Edison once said “Vision without execution is hallucination.” This statement applies not just to invention, but to graphic design. One of the greatest strengths of graphic designers is the ability to first develop a concept and then execute it to make it real. From visualization and ideation all the way through to actuation and execution, each step of this process takes skill and expertise.

When we design products or websites for people like ourselves, there are many others who are, as a result, left out. From visually impaired users who rely on assistive technology, to people with a temporary injury such as a broken arm, tech users are forever diverse and beautifully unique. The products we design can, and should, reflect the extremely wide range of human experiences and needs.

When faced with creative challenges, we can also tap into our “design brain” to channel previously encountered ideas into our own work.
