Brand building is an important part of sales development.
It not only increases your share of voice to the consumer it also pitches your product in a way that adds value and reduces the barrier to purchase making your product or service stand out and unique – ultimately it increases sales.
So what are the best Brand Building Strategies:
- Define Your Brand: work with a checklist of core strengths. What has worked in the past in other markets? How do they translate in to your new ‘go to’ markets? Are they still relevant and then rank them in order of importance?
- Differentiate and Position Your Brand: the key aim of Brand Building is to make your brand stand out as unique. You already think it does right? but consumers all over the world differ and interpret brand aspects, values and even colours in different ways. There may already be other brands out there that have occupied the same or similar space making your first choice of approach more of a challenge. All need to be considered with a local head.
- Build and Expose your Brand: the best and most powerful brands take time to evolve. Take a long term approach to reaching your goals. It may take years of careful strategy to get where you want or deserve to be. Strong brands feel like they have been around for ever, and while young upstarts can rock the boat, they often fizzle out as quickly as they appear, so brand building does take time.
- Create a Distinct Identity: Let the consumer see and experience the personality of your brand in its entirety. Look at your brand as something that a customer wants to identify with, creating some strong clear brand values, and then sense check those in the market before building a planned approach.
- Review Your Brand: All brands go through cycles. They were all new once and many have evolved over time having their own ups, downs and periods of growth and shrinkage on the way. Accept these as challenges to be overcome and all part of the Brands journey. As your brand grows so do the expectations of the consumers that take on those perceived value that you originally set out to create. This only adds to the complexity of the brand really bringing it to life.
