		<description>Karen,

Regarding point number two, the importance of having a clear image or brand is absolutely crucial, both in the virtual world in especially, in the bricks and mortar world.

As a personal consumer, in the bricks and mortar world, I dislike confrontation and sometimes turn away from a store before I even go in unless I am certain that the store has what I am after. 

Moreover, as people are driving down the street, they may need what your business has to offer, but unless your offering is blatantly obvious from the one split second glance they get at your shop, chances are they will go elsewhere.

Next time clients hear me, I&#039;ll sound like Stephen Fry. LOL.
