“Branding is more than just a logo.” — Christin O’Bryan
We have all heard the saying, “Don’t judge a book by its cover,” but let’s be honest; first impressions matter. We pick up a book and immediately start judging the contents by what we see. Whether it’s a book, a house, or a Christian school, what we see impacts how we perceive and interact with it. On this episode of the Teacher Edition podcast, Jenny Copeland talks with brand specialist Christin O’Bryan about branding, marketing, and design for Christian schools. This episode is for you whether you are an educator or a school administrator.
Questions answered on this episode:
- What is “branding”?

- What do we do?
- Why do we do it?
