EVE @Edgebrook Sauganash Chamber of Commerce: Branding for Small Business

March 5, 2018 11:00 am CDT

Eve Eden, founder of EVE User Experience Design Agency, was invited to speak at a luncheon event at the Polish National Alliance with the Edgebrook Sauganash Chamber of Commerce about branding for small business.

Presentation: The Importance of Branding

Several local business owners based in Edgebrook and Sauganash, IL who are also members of the Chamber of Commerce, were present as well. Eve’s presentation was targeted at helping them understand the importance of successfully branding their business in order to help it grow.

Key Presentation Points:

The gist of the presentation was about how building a business identity and personality increases awareness of your product.

These can be summed up with these three questions:

• Who are you?

• What do you do?

• Why do you do it?

Once your identity is found, you can get your brand to spread by:

• simplifying your message      

• assigning brand ambassadors

• communicating your brand to the public

• getting target customers to further amplify your brand

Connecting with Local Businesses:

EVE seized the opportunity to connect with the local Edgebrook and Sauganash businesses to let them know how we could serve them. We spoke with President of Corporate Motivation, Susanne Moncrieff, about her business of providing other businesses with promotional products and logged merchandise. We were glad to connect with her as her dedication to product quality and integrity in her business resonated with us.

While it was a good opportunity for EVE to meet with existing local businesses, it was also an experience for budding entrepreneurs like Ania Psiurska. She is a future business owner who venturing out to give the city of Chicago a boost of color. She is great at what she does but needs the help, as many small businesses do, from an agency like EVE to help her make her digital mark in the world. She might be one of the first stylists with augmented reality (AR) technology that can give you an adventure while sitting in her seat by displaying different types of hairdos before even touching your lovely locks!

Meet Faraj Nayfa. We are currently managing the social media of his restaurant, Hala In, located in Mayfair neighborhood in Chicago, Illinois. He is a seasoned small business owner of 11 years, and is busy with managing the restaurant.

Since he personally has no time or social media experience to curate an online presence for it, EVE has helped to start the foundation for an online following onInstagram and Facebook to reach customers Faraj would previously have missed out on.

It is important to recognize that social media marketing is becoming the new norm. While the start up of a social media strategy can be overwhelming, it doesn’t have to be.

While you focus on your passion of running your business, EVE is here to focus on our passion of helping you navigate the social media world and digital business.
