Great brands know who they are!

Today’s thought is a short excerpt from a speech by Andy Grammer,

We work so hard to fit in, we forget to stand out.

So shine your light and speak your truth, even if your voice is shaking.

Like Oscar Wilde said, “be yourself because everyone else is taken.”

You think God would bring you here not to trust your intuition?

What if the reason you feel so left out, is that you are the thing that’s missing?

Benj Miller is a founder who hates titles, a strategist who can’t sit still, and a coach who feels more like a friend. As Syrup’s Creative Director (and its founder), he turns big ideas into brands people actually remember. He’s part strategist, part artist, and fully allergic to anything that feels generic. Whether he’s shaping a brand’s core idea, building a visual identity, or pushing a website concept one level deeper, he always finds the angle that makes people stop and pay attention.

He spent two decades building Syrup into the company it is today, while also starting, leading, or advising more than ten other companies along the way. That mix of experience shows up in the clarity, honesty, and sharp instincts he brings to every project. When he’s not leading the creative charge, he’s doodling another wild idea or convincing the team that yes, it can be better.
