Growing Brands with Digital

2. Hi! I am Cunlay,
Digital Creative Lead & Co-Founder at
Forty Three & Seven.
Over the last couple of years, my life-long
curiosity has found me in the intersection of
People, Design,Tech, Culture & Brands.
I shape perception for brands and
individuals; leveraging on digital
technology as a medium for businesses
find meaning and meet set goals.
4. Perception vs Reality
The perception around an entity determines to a great extent if the reality will be
considered and by extension experienced.
Therefore, an entity with a great reality but poor perception may never be able to
share that reality with its audience.

6. THE BRAND MYSTERY
A lot of times, people confuse a whole lot of other elements for a brand.
A logo is not a brand. A logo is a physical representation/mark for a
brand.
A brand is ethereal. Somewhat invisible, yet felt and reflected in tangible proportions.
A brand is a promise….
made and fulfilled!
