3. Even though the world seems to be mad
about designer-labels, the logo alone is
becoming less important. Moreover, it is the
personality of a product or service that is
most alluring to it’s audience.

Why all the amateur dramatics...
Branding is just a logo isn’t it?
For some perhaps, but for those in the know, it is also about cultivating relationships
with customers, bonding with staff and establishing empathy with new prospects.
Think of any successful and admired brand and you should find an organisation
we
behind it that has:

• A clear customer promise
• A well defined set of brand values

• An ‘all for one’ philosophy among the people who work there
• An employee proposition designed to attract and retain the best
nur
• Consistent and targeted communications that inspire.
The brand you are thinking of may have spirit and stature, it may be
ture e valua s
comfortable in its own skin, it may have “found itself”. All these factors
make it truly compelling to the people it wants to communicate with.

5. Imagine walking into a party only to
see a mass of unfamiliar faces before
spotting someone you know, like and
understand. Bingo!

6. 07
Why oh why..?
Because it is an intelligent (and noisy) world out there.
Your customers are likely to be surrounded by product choice and marketing messages.
Add to this that people talk, email, blog, and surf before making a purchase and it is clear
that simply shouting does not work. Audiences are sophisticated and informed and need

Achieving differentiation in products and services can be the key, but sometimes this

But do beware...
Acting is not enough… unless it is by method!
Merely inventing and projecting a set of values without living up to the promise is one of the
quickest ways to create disappointment and distrust. Brands should be born out of existing

systems and processes in place.

While you cannot create values from nothing, you can identify and develop existing ones.

A private show…
In life, we will often choose a product or service with a personality that we believe
resonates with our own. In other words, we want the choice to say as much about
us as it does fulfil our needs.

Play the Equity Card for...
A sensational ending!
The equity created by branding is fast becoming an integral part of intangible asset
valuations. For example, in their 2009 Global 500 report, Brand Finance, a leading
independent brand valuation consultancy, reported that Nike’s brand represents
72% of it’s total enterprise assets.

How this valution is calculated in some industries is still a matter of debate. But in

general terms, it is a combination of loyalty and preference driven by the

prepared to pay a higher price than they otherwise would.
