Branding

Building a successful brand requires you to grow a company that lives and breathes your brand values. Everyone from the front-line customer advisor through to the senior management team and CEO should all be practising behaviours which support and promote your brand values. The last in line to experience the brand is the customer, but it is by starting your brand engagement programme with them in mind that will help you map out the perfect brand journey. Once you have your internal brand engagement programme working effectively across all areas of your business, the output will be an excellent brand experience for the end customer. Building a strong brand has never been about simply getting your logo seen everywhere. It is about the entire customer experience: the interaction with sales or advisory staff; the effectiveness of administration; the performance of the product or service; the quality of after-sales service and much more. In order for every step in the journey to be successful, all behind-the-scenes operations and delivery elements need to be as fully immersed in your brand as the customer-facing elements. You can’t expect your staff to intuitively know what your brand is and how to live it, so it must be clearly communicated and training may be required. However, all aspects of the business should be delivering to the brand values. This means that how the staff are treated, how they feel valued within the business and how well they understand the contribution they make to the bigger picture are all part of the brand experience. It is easy to see that generating a truly successful brand will take more than just an effective marketing department. It requires a strong CEO and senior management team to lead from the top, an effective HR department and training team to roll out the brand across the workforce and well-equipped line managers to reinforce the brand values on a daily basis through performance management. The brand engagement strategy will be the corner stone for making it all happen, so you‘ll need a strong marketing professional to develop this for your company.
