Primal Branding, developed by Patrick Hanlon, is a branding strategy. Here’s how Primal Branding could be applied to a live streamer:

1. Creation Story:
Share your journey into live streaming. What inspired you? What challenges have you overcome? Creating a relatable and inspiring story helps build a connection.
2. Creation Myth:
Establish a unique angle or theme for your streams. It could be a signature game, a particular style, or a defining feature that sets you apart and becomes part of your myth.
3. Icons:
Develop recognizable visual elements such as a logo, overlays, and graphics. Create visual consistency and help your audience identify your brand.
4. Rituals:
Establish regular rituals during your streams. It could be a special greeting, a unique segment, or recurring activities that your audience looks forward to.
5. Sacred Words:
Identify and emphasize key terms or phrases associated with your brand. These could be catchphrases, expressions, or words that resonate with your community.
6. Pagans and Evangelists:
Identify your audience segments. Pagans are potential viewers, and evangelists are your loyal fans. Engage with both segments, fostering a sense of community and encouraging evangelists to advocate for your channel.
7. Rituals, Icons, and Words:
Do things that are different and cool. It’s like having your own style that makes you the best at what you do!
8. Leader:
Be a leader by being nice to everyone. Share fun things and teach everyone cool stuff. Everyone will look up to you!
9. Contrast:
Share what makes you different from others. Talk about your special way of doing things. Everyone will remember you for being special.
10. Creation Code:
Establish a code of conduct for your community. Promote positive interactions, inclusivity, and respect. Create an environment that reflects your brand values.
