More Than Just a Logo
There's the easy way to do things and there's the right way. Marketers live in a deadline driven world with accountability to both internal and external customers. When a national brand hands you a pre-package logo to roll out locally, one person may see it as a task while another may see it as a platform to take the program
to the next level.
