  2. What is a Brand? • “A trade mark, goods for a particular make: a mark of identification made with a hot iron, the iron used for this: a piece of burning or charred wood, to mark with a hot iron, or to label with a trademark” – The Oxford American Dictionary (1980) • The word underlines a common sign – irrespective how it’s used. It generally means “the object by which an impression is formed”. Yale Consultancy Sdn Bhd

  12. Why A Brand Strategy Toolkit? Strong brands never happen by accident. Yet only 53% of firms say they have a long term brand strategy in place.(1) • Only one fourth of marketing and advertising professionals "...can clearly articulate (their) company's brand position to... clients, customers or prospective clients.“ (2) • Often, what is missing is a shared set of tools for creating and implementing an effective brand strategy. Prophet, Best Practices Survey, 2002 Louws Management Corporation Survey, 2007

  13. What is Brand Strategy? A brand strategy is simply a plan for developing a coherent brand. It provides the means for systematically creating differentiation and consumer appeal by empowering better brand decisions across the organization. • An effective brand strategy influences the total operation of a business to ensure consistent brand experiences for the customer. “...ideally, the brand will make black and white decisions not just at the top of the house, but also all the way down the line.” David F. D’Allesandro, Brand Warfare: 10 Rules for Building the Killer Brand, 2001 “There is no tool better than the brand for uniting the forces and the stakeholders inside and around your company.”Thomas Gad, 4-D Branding: Cracking the Corporate Code of the Network Economy, 2001 “The role of brands has evolved; brands are now company DNA, the spark from which all corporate life grows.” Will Murray, Brand Storm: A Tale of Passion, Betrayal, and Revenge, 2001 Yale Consultancy Sdn Bhd

It bridges the gap between business strategy, marketing objectives and marketing strategy. • Brand Strategy is separate from the marketing mix. It guides and inform decisions about product strategy, placement, promotion and pricing. Yale Consultancy Sdn Bhd

  15. Brand Strategy Process The process of creating a brand strategy begins with a brand audit and ends with a plan for executing the brand across all touch points.

  16. Brand Audit Brand Audit Target & Insight Competitive Assessment Brand Inventory Points of Parity and Difference Yale Consultancy Sdn Bhd

  17. Target Matrix The target matrix helps ensure the brand focuses on the customers and prospects that offer the greatest potential for increased revenue and profitability. Yale Consultancy Sdn Bhd

  18. Example Target Matrix: Wine Drinkers Yale Consultancy Sdn Bhd

  19. Target Insight Where to Find Insights A target insight describes how a meaningful connection can be established between what the brand offers and the target’s explicit or implicit needs. • Trends • Motivations/”Sweet spots” • Decision-making process/criteria • Higher level benefits • Image/Identity gaps • New Segments • Unmet needs Yale Consultancy Sdn Bhd

  20. Target Insight: Wine Enthusiasts Enthusiasts are passionate about the entire wine experience. They enjoy researching what to buy and enjoying wine with friends and family. They like the whole culture of food, wine and knowing how to get the most out of the experience. “So much variety to try. I like to look at labels but I also like to look at Wine Spectator. I really like to entertain, tasting wine with friends. It’s the best experience.” Yale Consultancy Sdn Bhd

  21. Target Insight : Staples • Staples repositioned from a proposition based on selection (“Yeah, we’ve got that”) to one based on an easier shopping experience (“Staples: That was easy”) ‘Shoppers took selection for granted and placed less importance on price… Consumers overwhelming requested a ‘simple, straightforward shopping experience – knowledgeable and helpful associates and hassle-free shopping.’ Yale Consultancy Sdn Bhd

  22. Target Insight: Above the Influence “We wanted to elevate the conversation to make it more ‘pro-me’ than anti-drug. We know teens are very sensitive to influences, positive and negative, from peers and the media. That’s why we positioned it so teens would see influence as the enemy and marijuana as one of the influences that gets in their way. It’s a way of empowering them so they can stand on their own at a key moment of choice – seeing that they could be above the influence.” • National Youth Anti-Drug campaign decided to change the focus from anti-drug to resisting peer influence. Yale Consultancy Sdn Bhd

  23. Competitive Assessment Competitive assessment describes the customers’ perceived consideration set of alternatives and the brand’s advantages and disadvantages within that set. • Rosa Mexicano Competitors • Steak houses, and high end chains that offer good food in an unpretentious setting. • Rosa’s has no direct Mexican cuisine competitors outside of New York, and very few within New York.

  39.

  40. Conclusion Powerful brands built over time through careful strategic management. A clear brand strategy is essential for creating, building and sustaining a powerful brand. Brand strategy requires knowledge of customers’ current understanding of the brand, and a vision of how that understanding needs to evolve in order to meet business goals. “A brand is a customer’s understanding about a product, service, or company. It’s not what you say it is, but what THEY say it is.” --Marty Neumeier, author, “Zag” Yale Consultancy Sdn Bhd
