- Family business, a liquor store called Shoppers Discount Liquors that my dad started. It wasn’t long before I became obsessed with collecting wine. In 1997, I began to recognize the importance of e-commerce In 2006, he started Wine Library TV in 2006 with a flipcam to share his knowledge and passion for wine. It wasn’t long before 100,000 people were watching my videos every day (shout-out to my Vayniacs – love you guys). Ended the show in 2011. I used the site to grow the store from a $3 million business to a $45 million business, and it was just the beginning. http://tv.winelibrary.com In the spring of 2009, he launched VaynerMedia, a new breed of agency that would help Fortune 500 companies build their digital brands through micro content and other story telling actions. Also has Grape Story now, pairing content creators with companies. He also started writing books, and now has written 4 books about how to do what he did I just launched VaynerRSE, a $25 million seed fund that will help invest in and launch the next generation of world-changing technology companies.
- These are logos that have changed over time. Brand identity can be evolved over time, but that is not all that there is to branding.
- Your product, or service, has its own unique position in the marketplace. To find this place, you will need to do your research. A great way to get this insight is to work through the 4 P’s. The Marketing Mix: The 4 P’s Product: What does your product offer that similar ones don’t? What are the trends in your industry, do you fit in or are you different? Price: Where does your product fit in the price spectrum? Are you looking for lots of customers and repeat business at a low price point? Or is your product more exclusive and expensive? COGS (Cost of Goods Sold should help you set pricing, as should Place Competitors) Place: Who are you competitors? Where do you fit into the market? Why is your offering different or better than the others? What is your market niche and differentiator? Promotion: Who will be interested in your offering and how will you let people know about what you have to offer?
- Worksheet Write down one product to which you consider yourself loyal. Now answer these questions: Product: What makes this product better than others of its type? Why do you choose this brand over others? Price: Is this product cheaper, the same or more expensive than others of its type? Place: Is this product readily available everywhere? If so, what is special that makes it stand out to you? If not, where do you have to go to get this product and what is it like there? Promotion: How did you learn about this product? Is there anything that keeps it at top of mind for you? Now do this exercise from the point of view of a customer for your product or service.

- Chad often spars with patrons that leave one-star reviews of his restaurant on Yelp
- Often referred to as “messaging,” a value proposition goes beyond mere messages. A value proposition is a clear statement, or tailored series of statements, about the problem your product solves and the "experience" that it delivers. It should match the visual, verbal and experiential representation of your brand. Listen First: To speak to the problems your product will solve, you have to know your customer’s concerns and be committed to keeping up with them. Examples: Repurposing of a product by a customer: mentos (when the eepy bird guys started dropping them into soda bottles,etc. to make fountains) Experiences Talk: Your customer expects to have a meaningful experience of some kind, and the reality of this experience must match your marketing. What does your offering have that is unique? Resonate: In order to grow a relationship with your customer base, your offering needs to resonate with their real life experiences and the best cause delight. (Note: Canopy Houston, in the next slide, is a great example of this) Warning: Be careful of meaningless “adjectivitis”: world-class, best-in-class, high-quality, top-notch, etc. Your adjectives need to match the experience and be geared toward value vs. fluff.
- What does your images say about your brand? For instance, Starbucks. This is an image that shows the evolution of the Starbucks brand, all the way to the present look. This is an iconic brand, and the most recent change didn’t come without controversy.
- Here are a range of responses from Starbucks watchers and online influencers to the change in the Starbucks logo. And this is only a sample of thousands of articles As you can see customers are invested in a logo and brand identity, and when you change it, they notice.
- Then there is what you actually experience when you VISIT a Starbucks This barista is a critical part of the whole experience. Logos, corporate talk and fancy marketing mean nothing without it. Also, you may have noticed the more retail feel when you walk into a Starbucks, cups, mints, and now even VIA instant coffee that you can buy both in retail outlets and the grocery store – perhaps what Schultz was referring to in the video.

- Change ONE thing Consider how Anas Younes, a doctor at MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Texas, harnessed the power of his fans. Younes specializes in lymphoma and needed more patients to enroll in his clinical trials. For 18 months, he used Twitter and Facebook to share important information about cancer studies and trials, focusing on lymphoma. He amassed a modest but respectable community of 617 (1,189 – 10/2012) followers on his Facebook fan page and 1,511 (6,231 10/2012) on Twitter — not bad for a busy doctor, but probably not successful from purely a popularity standpoint. The key was that his fans were highly motivated by his topic. If someone has lymphoma, Younes is a “go-to” guy. He has built strong thought leadership on Facebook, Twitter and through MD Anderson’s Cancerwise blog, and he curates the topic well. As a result, Younes has had a lot of people e-mail him with questions about the disease. More importantly, they are signing up for and referring friends to his clinical trial program. According to Younes, he has quadrupled the number of patients in his clinical trials using social media channels. For a busy doctor who relies on robust participation to further his career, this metric is much more important than the number of Facebook fans he has. Younes has the right fans, who are taking action to benefit his bottom line as a research doctor at a prestigious hospital.
