Frequently Asked Questions

BRANDING

What is branding?

Branding is the part of marketing that tries to plant an idea in your head about what a product or company stands for. Or, more accurately, a customer’s overall perception of your business.

For example…

BMW: Presumably you’re thinking highly-engineered, German, possibly “The Ultimate Driving Machine”, sports car, “expensive but worth it”, “more reliable than a Ferrari”, etc. That’s not a coincidence, that’s BMW’s brand, they consciously worked to try and make you think that and associate that with all their vehicles.

McDonalds: Cheap, ubiquitous, tastes absolutely the same no matter where you go on earth. Note that these aren’t things McDonalds necessarily says outright but they’re things they want you to think.

You can’t build a reputation on what you are going to do.
– Henry Ford

A good brand has value. Great example is the Toyota Land Cruiser vs. the Toyota Lexus LX 570. They’re the same car. We don’t mean figuratively, we mean it’s literally the same parts put together on the same assembly line by the same mechanics, the only difference is whether they whack the Land Cruiser or Lexus badge on it. When new, a Lexus sold for about $1000 – $4000 more than the Land Cruiser with the same options. That is the value of the Lexus brand (relative to Land Cruiser).

Harley-Davidson: You’re picturing a big dude in black leathers with a beard who looks like he does whatever he wants whenever he wants. These are NOT Harley-Davidson’s main customers. Their main customers are middle/late-aged upper middle class population who want to *believe* they have the freedom of that iconic biker image. The marketing department very carefully curates that brand to plant a specific image in their customer’s minds of what their product stands for and, by extension, what you stand for if you buy their product.

How do I define my brand?

According to John Williams from LogoYes  Defining your brand is like a journey of business self-discovery. It can be difficult, time-consuming and uncomfortable. It requires, at the very least, that you answer the questions below:

What is your company’s mission?
What are the benefits and features of your products or services?
What do your customers and prospects already think of your company?
What qualities do you want them to associate with your company?

How do I build a brand?

Branding is much more than just a cool logo or a well-placed advertisement.

Branding doesn’t happen overnight…or even in a few months.

Building a brand is definitely a process and requires a strategy. However, the ongoing effort will result in establishing long-term relationships with your customers.

This can lead to a steady increase in leads and sales, word-of-mouth referrals, and advocacy for your products or services.

Once I have defined my brand, how do I get the word out?

Write down your brand messaging.

What are the key messages you want to communicate about your brand? 

Integrate your brand. Branding extends to every aspect of your business–how you answer your phones, what you or your salespeople wear on sales calls, your e-mail signature, everything.

Create a “voice” for your company that reflects your brand. This voice should be applied to all written communication and incorporated in the visual imagery of all materials, online and off.

Is your brand friendly? Be conversational. Is it ritzy? Be more formal. You get the gist.

Develop a tagline. Write a memorable, meaningful and concise statement that captures the essence of your brand.

Design templates and create brand standards for your marketing materials. Use the Use the same color scheme, logo placement, look and feel throughout. You don’t need to be fancy, just consistent.

Be true to your brand. Customers won’t return to you–or refer you to someone else–if you don’t deliver on your brand promise.

Be consistent.
