Building credit and building savings used to be mutually exclusive goals. With Self, they&#8217;ve created a responsible way for people to build both at once. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When considering Self&#8217;s intended audience, the domain resonates even more. Who&#8217;s it for? You. Yourself. Your financial wellbeing. Who do you rely on most of all? I&#8217;ll let you fill in that blank. When a potential customer pauses to recall the name of that credit-builder site she recently discovered, she won&#8217;t have to search long before remembering self.inc. We all trust in ourselves, now, you can trust in Self too. Come on, that&#8217;s just good branding. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-fluency-inc\">3. <a href=\"http:\/\/fluency.inc\">fluency.inc<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;uploadedSrc&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/porkbun.com\\\/blog\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2021\\\/11\\\/screen-shot-2021-11-23-at-10.02.17-am.png&quot;,&quot;figureClassNames&quot;:&quot;wp-block-image size-large&quot;,&quot;figureStyles&quot;:null,&quot;imgClassNames&quot;:&quot;wp-image-2268&quot;,&quot;imgStyles&quot;:null,&quot;targetWidth&quot;:3044,&quot;targetHeight&quot;:2410,&quot;scaleAttr&quot;:false,&quot;ariaLabel&quot;:&quot;Enlarge image&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"3044\" height=\"2410\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/betamax.porkbun.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/screen-shot-2021-11-23-at-10.02.17-am.png?w=1024\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2268\" srcset=\"https:\/\/porkbun.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/screen-shot-2021-11-23-at-10.02.17-am.png 3044w, https:\/\/porkbun.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/screen-shot-2021-11-23-at-10.02.17-am-300x238.png 300w, https:\/\/porkbun.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/screen-shot-2021-11-23-at-10.02.17-am-1024x811.png 1024w, https:\/\/porkbun.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/screen-shot-2021-11-23-at-10.02.17-am-768x608.png 768w, https:\/\/porkbun.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/screen-shot-2021-11-23-at-10.02.17-am-1536x1216.png 1536w, https:\/\/porkbun.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/screen-shot-2021-11-23-at-10.02.17-am-2048x1621.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3044px) 100vw, 3044px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\taria-label=\"Enlarge image\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"context.imageButtonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"context.imageButtonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Any ad agency knows their marketing has to impress from first-glance.
