Importance of Branding
Jo'V King, formed BrandYouBrandNu in 2007 when he was a full-time clothing designer wanting to keep fresh marketing materials for his brand.
After numerous inquires about branding assistance for projects, Jo'V felt a call to developing brands and teaching others how to monetize their brands. After 11 years of dedication to fashion, he closed that door and went full time into brand development. At BYBN, the creative team comes together to carefully strategize your next win. We research, study, plan, envision and even pray as we prepare to launch your vision. It’s always a joy to serve and the response to our vibrant concepts is stammering.
