Home Improvement, the sitcom from the 1990's, used the backyard fence as the introspective gathering place to wrap up the show with some backyard wisdom from their mysterious and always veiled neighbor, Wilson.

The backyard fence is a metaphor for branding - an experience you design that brings your audience together with you as the catalyst. In other words, your brand is the connection that brings them together. When you do that, they will naturally be drawn to you.

That's the power of branding. A power that a mere image on a busi
