"Branding is strategic. Marketing is tactical."

What is branding?
The bedrock foundation of a business upon which every action is based is their brand. Branding the basic level of communication with a business's loyal customers and potential customers. Building a  brand in the marketing industry, creating a business's brand is developing a business name, logo, marketing materials and a marketing strategy.
