		<description>Great post.

And then, there is a lot of talk about how we are our own brand, too.  Wouldn't want to talk about that brand in the third person, though (one of your special circumstances!).

Of interest to note; we often speak to each other in terms of our brands in the third person, as well.</description>

		<description>Hi Ric, the JMC Messaging Platform has become one of the most requested of our branded services. From working with a client – and we follow a well structured and proven process – a Messaging Platform document is produced. 

It’s an internal reference piece for copywriting everything from ads and Web sites to a speech for the CEO. It’s a tool for training sales people, CSR’s and your “outside” service reps. 

We’re fond of saying: One Voice. One View. 

Everyone describes the business the same way. They also are able to tick off the benefits of doing business with your firm (all sending the same messages). Your people will comfortably answer why one should buy your services or products (yes, all the same); they can tell someone what’s different about your brand (yes, consistently). It’s where the elevator speech comes from. It explains your positioning, how your stakeholders should think about your brand. 

Good stuff. Not pretty looking but powerful in action. We would welcome working on this with you for your brand.</description>

		<description>So, if an organization goes through this process, and clarifies how its going to message - how does that play out?  Do you end up with a playbook to refer to?  A guide?  A policy?  Maybe we should do this process with you?</description>

		<description>John - couldn't agree more.  Businesses who only use "jargon" to describe themselves are just speaking to the choir.  The goal with communications is to be understood, not show people how "smart" you think you are.  Good businesses listen to communications professionals like JMC PR to help guide them accordingly.</description>
