You must work on finding the icon within yourself in order to become an iconic brand in the world and ensure that your message isn’t instantly discarded. How do we find the icon within ourselves?

If you’re iconic to a thousand people in the world that's enough to be sustainable, whatever active work you're doing.” - Jamie Mustard Highlights –
  • The average person is bombarded by about over 15 thousand advertising messages a day, which results in them only partially paying attention.
  • Anything someone can’t understand before they’ve had a chance to think gets instantly discarded.
  • Using blocks ensures that your audience understands you in their lizard brain.
  • A block is an icon waiting to happen - something simple but unavoidable that you can easily and instantly understand, not unlike a road sign.
  • Monolithic repetitive communication is the anatomy of what makes something iconic.
  • It’s important to first find the icon within yourself, in order to make your brand iconic.
  • Repetitive emotional concept is the idea that there is an intersect point between the best you have to offer and the emotional concern of your client.
  • Magnetize attention with oversized and repetitive messages.
