We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Johnna Wilks. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Johnna below.

Hi Johnna, thanks for joining us today. We’d love to go back in time and hear the story of how you came up with the name of your brand?

As the founder of boutique brand agency Be the Message™, I have always recognized the fundamental importance of a brand’s foundation, which, of course, includes the business name. When I embarked on the journey to start my own agency, I was inundated with numerous name ideas. However, none of them truly resonated with who I am as a person and what I wanted my business to represent. What I did know was that I desired a name that would not only reflect my commitment to clients, but also my personal values.

My faith as a Christian is the central pillar of my life, and it was only natural for me to take my search for a business name to God in prayer. During a moment of reflection and meditation, I received a message that pierced my heart and left an indelible mark on my journey. God spoke to me, saying, “Don’t just carry a message. BE the message.”. In that moment, I knew almost instantly that “Be the Message” was the perfect name for my brand agency. This name carries a profound philosophy that is now at the core of our mission – helping clients articulate messaging that embodies the very essence of who they are, rather than just words and values that remain unfulfilled. “Be the Message” isn’t just a name; it’s a commitment to authenticity, integrity, and a dedication to ensuring that our clients’ brand messages are lived out in every aspect of their business.

Johnna, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?
