As a Trademarks & Business Attorney for entrepreneurs, I constantly try to drill into my clients the IMPORTANCE of branding.

For a MASTERCLASS on marketing, branding, and beautifully crafting your own narrative, look NO FURTHER than and . Check this out: these 2 biz moguls took bottles from their OWN champagne house, , with them to the so they could have their own champagne to drink!

I've been saying for YEARS that because of biz moves just like this!

She and Jay effortlessly leveraged a high-profile opportunity to showcase their champagne to hundreds of thousands of people, as well as to let the Globes know that there are *other* champagnes that can be the official champagne of the event besides Moët & Chandon...

On top of that and actually got to DRINK some Ace of Spades after asking Jay and Bey for some! {photographic receipts attached}

Brilliant business move, y'all--just plain, damned BRILLIANT!

I actually wrote an article in 2016 that was published in Blavity where I give lessons you can learn from Bey to apply to your own business--and it's STILL relevant and valuable info!

And you can DM me to schedule a coaching session for your biz if you want to "Brand It Like Bey," too! 😉

Jay and Bey can help you level up both your champagne game AND your business game--now THAT is the real definition of a !

So are you right or left brain 🧠 dominant? And how can you use that to YOUR advantage?

Most people tend to be either predominantly left-brained (analytical) or right-brained (creative) {with a scarce few being virtually “equal-brained”}, but a article suggests that the best entrepreneurs learn to reconcile and train BOTH sides of the brain.

And I couldn’t agree more.

Hear me out: if you are a right brained, creative person, training your left-brain to understand numbers and the analytical side of business helps you to effectively run your biz.

If you are a left brained, analytical person, training your right brain to explore creative thought can help you come up with unique revenue streams and branding strategies.

Here are some tips from the articles to develop your less dominant brain:

FOR CREATIVES TO DEVELOP LEFT BRAIN

* Get Up Earlier: this will help you be more task-oriented and focused on accomplishing the day’s goals
* Learn Excel / Take A Quick Books Class: this will train you to concentrate on and understand numbers—which is what the left brain loves
* Work With Lawyers: Learning to read and comprehend detailed legal theories will switch you over to the left-brain really quickly

FOR ANALYTICS TO DEVELOP RIGHT BRAIN

* Sleep in stay in bed all day: who knew that could be valuable to your business? Allowing your brain to decompress this way allows your subconscious mind to download and create—And allows your brain to start fleshing out ideas
* Take A Creative Class: writing, cooking, painting, drawing will help open up the colorful pathways in your brain and expand your thought patterns
* Put on some music and sing and/or dance along: listening to music switches you over to your right brain and causes your brain to process what it’s receiving in a different manner

What are some things you can do to to use the less dominant side to help you in your business?

And if you're ready to take Forbes' advice of "working with a lawyer," I'm ready to take you into 2020 with effective, dual-brained strategies!
