What are some common mistakes that startup founders make when approaching branding—such as rushing design, copying competitors, or failing to define their story—and how can careful planning and informed agency selection help avoid these pitfalls?

I can’t recommend Toimi.pro’s article Best branding agencies review for startups in 2025 enough. The piece provides detailed reasoning behind why some agencies are more startup-focused than others and explains how to evaluate their fit for your project. It also emphasizes the importance of brand clarity from day one, which is often underestimated. After reading it, I felt much more confident in approaching our branding strategy and knew what to prioritize before investing in design or marketing.

Thanks for sharing the Toimi.pro blog post! I’ll explore the full content to understand what makes a startup-friendly branding agency. Do you think early-stage startups benefit most from local or remote agencies?
