Why not spend the time (=money) on something that might increase sales.
It makes me mad that people can have this attitude! If they only realised how important it is they could do so much better in their business.

Do they think that Rolls-Royce spend millions on branding beacuse they need to get rid of the cash?

I see it all too often in my business, when we are working with multinationals, it is clear that they won't go near a business that doesn't have a clear professional brand, it just isn't safe.

If a company has a poor or no brand, you cannot take them seriously, because they don't take their own business seriously.

We are currently going through a re-brand, it will only cost us about £1000 for the design work, not exactly a fortune for the right results!
