Branding is a large umbrella. It can be tricky to cover all the bases, so let me help you with that. Think of a local business you frequent, maybe one where you know the owner(s). Generally, regulars are the people who've had a good experience there. If you've ever had a bad experience on an off day, chances are the manager will make amends so you'll return. They want to keep a good name in the community. They want you to know that you can trust their brand.
Foundations are always the first steps when building any type of structure, this pertains to business branding as well. One of the last things you'll do when building a structure is to add paint to the walls. Consider this step to be your logo. It's one of the last things you should do when starting your business. You need to decide what your business is going to stand for and how you'll use it before you apply the paint. It is possible to start with a logo, many people do, but if your logo doesn't match your intentions, then it's not going to mesh well.
Your brand needs to set a good foundation before jumping onto the logo wagon. Consider how you want to be known in the community. Everything you do is going to be reflected on your business because you are your brand. When people think of your business they'll think of you. Are you the classy boutique storefront, the colorful art store, or the laid back cafe? Will you host opportunities for people to come to participate in once a month? Are you going to be a frequent face for nonprofit activities? Is the Farmer's Market going to offer your wares? Are you going to be active in the Chamber of Commerce? All of these are possibilities for people to see you and to get to know you.
That's how branding works. First people want to know you before they decide to like you. Once they like you they'll begin to trust you. Since you can't be everywhere at once, how can you show up regularly? That's the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Simply be the face of your brand online.
