I wish when we started Smartitag.com we would have spend more time and money establishing our brand. Typical of your article we followed the normal scenario start up business. That was getting a web site, never mind brand, logo or the rest of it, just get a website up. Then get the product out, not much thought to design, brand, logo. Then go after the financing, patent, trademark etc. Now as we look back at it, I can appreciate your wisdom. Keep up the good work. Martin you are right on!
