I have heard that brand identity is not about designing, logos etc it is more than that, it's a narrative but how to I build that for my brand.

Through storytelling.

To create the strongest brand possible, it must be about something you are most passionate about. Use your instincts to guide you on which direction to take and which story to tell. This is the only way to create something so unique that it can stand out in today's market. Because this brand will be about you and your passion, it will be unique. You are unique, and like-minded people will connect with it.

Building a strong brand identity is like crafting a compelling story - it's not just about the cover, but the whole novel that hooks your audience in! So, let's weave your brand narrative with the finesse of a data scientist analyzing code for hidden gems.

I echo what many people have said here. I will stress that you shouldn't force yourself to create a brand whose foundation is the direct results of marketing data or insights about your audience. As the company founder, find your voice and what you value in life, and let that be the foundation of your brand. Then, you can start shaping and molding things to resonate.

@thomas_yanik I agree that, yes, some have built their companies like that, but that does not happen often for many people due to the lack of resources or means to gather such data and insights. I liken brand building to what you see in the music industry. Pop and rap stars are manufactured and rooted in market data and insights on what sells in that genre. And so you get a product that sounds all the same. The indie artist uses the music medium to express who they are and their values. They build their brand that way, and as they grow, they shape and mold themselves to gain a bigger audience and reach—sometimes for better or worse.

You are right. Narrative is important. It is as important as knowing your audience and maintaining a consistent brand voice.

Know your audience and try to make your brand relatable to them in your comms, approach, ads. Strong bonding with the community is very important for a brand identity. Also, it helps a lot when your brand can be summarized easily while being distinct and not one of a legion.

You stick to one thought. For example, We started with and are still hell-bent on bridging the gap between storing your information and readily accessing and using it. After getting there, we plan to go in the direction of building an automation platform that works on your data, and your expertise, so you can do more. No matter what happens, pivots, etc. the core idea remains the same - Bridging the gap between storing your information and readily accessing and using it. This has helped us establish DocXter so far and will power us to create a strong brand presence. 🤞
