Women of Distinction Selects Jo Ann Goldsmith as a Distinguished Professional in Her Field

    LAKE WORTH, FL, December 03, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Jo Ann Goldsmith, Founder and Design Branding Expert of Authentic Branding with Heart.com, has been recognized as a Distinguished Professional in her field through Women of Distinction Magazine. Ms. Goldsmith will be featured in the upcoming edition in 2015/2016.

As a Design Branding Expert, Jo Ann Goldsmith brings her client's Vision to Life so their businesses' positioning and message can attract their stated target audience.

For more than 25 years Ms. Goldsmith, of Authentic Branding With Heart.com, whose gifts of branding and creative flow stem from her heart and soul, hence the name of her firm, has been serving Corporate America and entrepreneurs in both the US and Canada.

When viewers see your business cards, website, or other collateral material, they have three to seven seconds to gain their attention before they move to another site, and only 7% of the message will be "seen". This means that 93% of your message is only going to be "felt", and not seen. Therefore, you'll want to make sure that you have seamlessly blended in the "unseen" imagery, words, and subtleties so that your final brand and logo will retain the essence of your stated vision and goal.

"When your branding is not consistent, you may be throwing your money down the toilet," Ms. Goldsmith stated. "Worse than that, you risk confusing, and losing your target audience to your competitors. If growing your business and making a profit are important to you, then be consistent with a message that fully encompasses 'who' you are, and 'what' you wish to attract."

Working with all aspects of corporate imaging, Ms. Goldsmith's services range from refreshing logos to strategically creating all aspects of a brand's presence: from social media on sites including LinkedIn; on business cards; and in all advertising venues. In order to do this, she delivers "Authentic Branding With Heart" and uses her expertise to help her clients go the distance in today's competitive market.

Ms. Goldsmith graduated from Syracuse University's Newhouse School of Communications, receiving a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Advertising Communication. Fortunate to gain industry recognition and awards for her work early on, she is credited with national 4-color ad campaigns and promotions for household brands including: L'eggs Pantyhose; White Cloud Toilet Paper; and Massengill Douche, where she also won a CLIO Finalist Award for creative excellence in advertising and design.

In the first chapter of the Amazon Best Selling Book, 'Journey to the Stage, Volume II', you'll find two of Ms. Goldsmith's inspired illustrations and her story, "An Unlikely Swan." Additionally, you'll find more than 100 of her published unique business illustrations, including: 'Joy Coach', JoAnna Brandi's Book, '54 Ways to Stay Positive in a Constantly Changing, Sometimes Negative World'; and in Paul Karasik's 'Sweet Persuasion: The Illustrated Art of Closing a Sale.'

Ms. Goldsmith, a certified Minister of Spiritual Counseling, relocated to South Florida 15 years ago and founded Create Goldmines.com. Some of her Florida Clients include: WPBF, The Village of Wellington, Florida Ranch Tours and StarWaves Marketing.
