Strategically planned communications

Building Brands

More than ever, how you tell your story defines not only how others perceive you, but requires that you truly understand who you are and what you have to offer the world.

Strategic branding must first reach deep into the soul of an organization or individual to find out what you truly seek, who you serve, and how you will execute.

Jason Niedle has used this strategy to build brands for decades, eventually founding the branding agency Tethos over 20 years ago. His strategic mind and creative eye has helped grow global logistics organizations to tech startups to the non-profits of Sir Richard Branson, Ellen DeGeneres, Roquan Smith, and many others.

“You ask the right questions, quickly understanding what I’m saying, my vibe, my deep why, and my how. And you help me connect it to the ground in the most beautiful way. I have never worked with anyone who both understood me and then made it visible in a translatable way to the cold audience. You have a rare genius.”

– Dr Corwynn Beals (“The Bliss Doctor”)

"Words cannot express how transformative the Tethos brand strategy session has been for my organization.
