We’ve become a society that’s too busy to invest in devouring words as a means of communication. It’s why we shorten everything to acronyms. It’s why we rely on scanning headlines and sub-headlines as a means of determining if deeper exploration is warranted. Being swallowed in a sea of bright lights has become part of life for us. Rather than fight that ‘Squirrel’ syndrome, we’ve adapted without even realizing it. More than ever, visuals are the superior form of ‘pattern interrupt’ to the textual and bright light ridden overwhelm of this technological era. Without realizing it we’ve come to rely on visuals to communicate with one another.

Hi Ileane,

I think creative visual branding is one way very small businesses -- like solopreneurs -- can really distinguish themselves in their markets. Great resource. Thanks for sharing.
