| | MARCH 2022 9we don't get communication classes in school or college and most of us just follow our own format when communicating. Communication should not be about how you see it - it should be all about how the other party views that communication interaction. Entrepreneurs need proper training here so that they may learn how they can control how their messaging is transmitted. Strategy Once you get your vision and the communication of your vision in line, the next thing to focus on is strategy. And strategy generally revolves around the messaging that your company displays on all of the various platforms to your customers. Such messaging is generally called branding - your brand is how your customer feels about you. And that feeling is vital. To be clear, if the general mood or feeling is that your customer loves you, then they will buy from you no matter how close your competitors are. On the other hand, if the feeling is that you're merely a commodity then the moment somebody comes into your realm, you will be beaten by price or you'll be beaten by a speedier rival. Branding When you go through the branding format, you need to focus on your user experience, you need to focus on your user interface and you need to focus on a human-centric design. Make sure that your website, your marketing materials and your spoken word all communicate those specific elements that make your consumer feel truly comfortable. Once you have successfully dealt with your branding, the next step is to focus on personal branding. Your personal branding is hugely important. If you don't convey the right messaging about you, then even though customers may like your company, they could dislike the person that's communicating the message. A great example of both an excellent business brand and also a personal brand is Richard Branson. He could open up a chicken farm tomorrow and it would be the second-biggest chicken farm in the world - he truly understands the power of personal branding. Be sure to keep checking online to see what consumers are saying about you, which is as important as what they're saying about your business. Now you can start to get into the tactics of how you grow your unicorn. Growth The acceptable measure for unicorn growth rate in Silicon Valley, is anywhere between 12 percent and 25 percent growth every single month. As you can imagine when considering growth rates this high, if you do not have the foundation components such as communication, vision and strategy in place, then it is highly unlikely that you will ever achieve such rates of growth. If you do have these important foundations in place, then you need to focus on turning generally mediocre digital marketing results into exponential digital marketing results.

Communication should not be about how you see it - it should be all about how the other party views that communication interactionAustin has seen more than five times the nation's population growth rate between 2010 and 2020, at 33.7%.
