Forge a Brand and Forge a Business

First impressions are everything. Whether we’re talking about meeting the in-laws for the first time, or building a business relationship, setting up the foundations of that connection are essential.  They’re what steadfastly hold it all together through those inevitable turbulent times.

So, how exactly does this translate to the marketing world? One word: branding. This is the cornerstone to marketing. It’s the over-excelling teacher’s pet of the marketing world, managing to consistently meet the needs of the consumer.

Regardless of if you’re heading up a multi-national business or a small local enterprise, brand marketing ought to be the starting pistol of any business venture. Recognising that the more ingenuity you initially inject into your brand strategy, then the greater your long term returns will be is one of the most valuable business lessons out there. And it’s a formula that’s been proven time and time again.

Invest in creative corporate branding, and you will see an exponential surge in interest. Effectively, you’re appealing to people’s memories.  Create something that gives a lasting impression, and you’ll successfully forge an image of your business in the customer’s mind.

Done right, your brand strategies will precede and even mould customer expectations. As with any established business, customers come to your table hoping to be met by something they can truly relish. In that case, dish up something that consistently meets or exceeds the expectations you initially planted. Branding is the first irreplaceable step in delivering those promises.

Just like when we hear that song from two summers ago, association in branding is a powerful tool. One result of that association is an emotional response. It’s exactly this that branding strives for. Elicit a positive emotional response from your audience, and your branding will be etched upon a customer’s cognitive response. In other words, we walk out of this with an introduction to Undergraduate Psychology.

Better still, that positive memory leads into a deeper sense of trust. The more trust your brand has, then the more longevity for your business plans. From the trust your branding creates, you implicitly tell your audience that the product they receive is better than any other choice available to them… purely because it originates from your business.
