The Impact of Over-Polished Branding

Using overly polished and corporate branding can significantly harm reach and engagement on platforms like LinkedIn. Many organizations rely too heavily on stock images and highly curated graphics, making their posts feel like advertisements that users tend to ignore. In contrast, a more human-centered approach to branding is essential, allowing for genuine connections to be formed with audiences.
