HOW to Brand Your Team
A Great Team Name

You want your team name to make people feel included – like they are a part of something bigger than themselves – like a club or even a sorority.
If you are reading this right now, it means you are a “Diva” – a member of one of the largest online training communities in the world… pretty cool, right?
Choose a Team Name that makes you feel included.

A Team Icon or Logo
You do not need to spend a lot of money on branding your team – in fact, just the opposite!
Fiverr is a great place to get a super inexpensive icon or logo made for your team. Send your designer your chosen team colors to make sure everything matches perfectly!
Be sure to get a nice large image “print quality” with a transparent background so you can use it on anything you choose!
A Sisterhood Culture
All of these things are great – but what matters most is the sisterhood culture that you must create and cultivate. The philosophy that “none of us is as good as ALL of us” will help your team grow and thrive.
As your team begins to embrace your branding, others will want to be a part of the team as well – helping you to grow your local teams almost effortlessly.
Additional Team Branding Tips:
- Address your team by the group name on social media. If you notice, I start everything with “Hey Divas!!”
- Use your team logo on images and documents you create for your team. You can use PicMonkey to add the image to images for free!
- Repetition is key – the more you use your team name, the more well known it will become within your company and within your community. Even a small team can gain a huge amount of exposure!
