most popular blog posts for 2012
It’s the end of another year and I’m always excited to see which blogs were the most popular with my readers. Checking Google Analytics below is the list of the 10 most popular posts.

business branding colours… meaning of pink
When I started researching for this article, I didn’t realise I would find so many businesses that use pink as their main branding colour. On one hand this may reflect an increase in women going into business or more female related services. On the other hand I did find it surprising given the back lash against pink being marketed at little girls. It seems when it comes to marketing to women pink is all the rage.

business branding colour … meaning of blue
What message is being conveyed when a brand choses blue as their primary branding colour? Psychologically blue presents trust, integrity, communication. However, use the wrong tone of blue and it’s the colour that can make a brand appear cold, aloof and unapproachable.
