The B.R.A.N.D. Subscription
You have an attorney, an accountant, an insurance person: when something comes up in one of those areas, you don't start searching for someone - you have someone. For Branding, you can have me: Q. Malandrino. (see what they say in the fifty-four testimonials under the About Q tab)
The B.R.A.N.D. Subscription is a confidential, one-on-one relationship that gives you open, objective, and ongoing access to four decades of hands-on experience in Corporate Branding and Identity. That’s what not even my good friend Claude can provide: judgment, direct perspective, and real-life case histories from my own work across industries for local, regional and global organizations.
There's no process to start, no brief, no Discovery Call to schedule another call – and it’s not, God forbid, ‘fractional brand advisory’. You call, text, email, send, show, ask me: we may talk for five minutes or for an hour – we're done when we're done.
There are typically five doors into conversations:
B_ounce it > I have an idea, let me run it by you
R_eact to it > tell me what you think / how you see it
A_rgue it > everyone agrees, but … let’s talk it through
N_arrow it > lots of options, what to consider?
D_ecide it > help me make the call
In addition, the door also opens from my side - unscheduled, unpromised, unsystematized: an article, a paragraph, an image, a case history, something I remembered or noticed that is, might be, or should be relevant to you.
And the value compounds: the more I know you and your business, the faster and more meaningful the value.
