Brand-Building Struggles: Business Owners, What’s Holding You Back? (Need Your Honest Insights!)

I’m trying to figure out the biggest challenges business owners face when trying to build their brand.

I am not trying to sell you.

I just genuinely want to help bridge the gap between your goals and what’s missing today.

Here’s where I need your help:

-What’s the biggest headache when it comes to branding? (Is it nailing your vibe? Standing out? Just… time?)

• Why not hire a pro? Too pricey? Been burned before?

• What would make you go, “Shut up and take my money!” for branding help? Templates? Coaching? A magic “make my brand cool” button?

• What do most branding "experts" get wrong? (So I can avoid those mistakes!)

My theory: Many owners WANT to DIY their brand (to save money or stay authentic) but get stuck balancing time, expertise, and vision. Or maybe they’ve tried outsourcing and felt burned. Am I close?

Your honesty could help shape solutions that actually work for real businesses. If you’ve got 2 minutes to share your thoughts, I’d massively appreciate it.
