Three Communication Secrets of The Great Communicator Robin Williams once said of former president Ronald Reagan, "You'll notice that
[Nancy] never drinks water when Ronnie speaks", implying that Nancy did all

at once, since both will inevitably be diluted upon delivery, and therefore less
effective. Simply expressing the company's chosen identity in easily identifiable
terms is enough for an initial campaign, and if that message is delivered
successfully, the campaign is a success.
