“What do you do?” It’s a simple question, one that we all get asked all the time. Have you ever met someone at a party or networking event that seemed unsure when you asked what they did for a living?
What impression did that leave on you? This makes people seem insecure and untrustworthy. I was a networking event recently and i asked a women what she did, when she was telling me, she dropping her head back, squeezed her eyes together and opened them when she was done, at first i thought nothing of it, but then i noticed she did it every time someone asked her what she did. This was obviously an unconscious reaction to the question of ‘what do you do’

Your brand positioning statement is your opportunity to captivate a potential customer or client. Without it, you will lose business.
