Why does strong branding matter?

 

Successful branding is about transforming your business by making your brand matter more to customers. It’s about winning and keeping customers (service or product), about influencing choice, about finding and dominating your place in the market so that you can:

 

1. Improve and expedite customer choice for your brand

 

2. Create memorable distinction, difference and convey value

 

3. Increase influence, market penetration, sales and profitability

 

4. Create sustainable competitive advantage

 

5. Reduce margin erosion and commoditization

 

6. Power new service solutions or product introductions

 

7. Create a valuable IP (intellectual property) asset when possibly seeking investment or selling

 

8. Make your brand exceptional – product or services can be copied . . . brands can’t

 

  

VERY IMPORTANT: A brand is NOT a logo, it’s much, much more.

 

 

 

Why the Persona Brand Building Blueprint™ is a perfect fit for you

 

Typically companies and organisations who participate in the Persona Brand Building Blueprint™ Programme do so for a range of reasons, some of which are listed below:

 

• You have a great product or service but struggle to say what makes your brand different or better

 

• You’re thinking of rebranding but don’t know exactly where to start or what’s involved to get a successful result

 

• You’re increasingly losing business to the competition

 

• You’re being dragged into a price war (where only those with the deepest pockets can win)

 

• You have a great relationship with your customers and need to keep it that way but aren’t sure how to enhance and deepen that relationship into the future, in a way that matters to them

 

• You need to sharpen and strengthen your brand for accession planning or external investment to increased perceived brand value

 

• You haven’t fully utilised your staff and need to empower their understanding of your brand so that they can champion and advocate it more confidently in the marketplace and consequently increase sales and profitability

 

• You need to enhance management and staff understanding of your brand to strengthen company morale and increase productivity

  

    

Still not sure if the Persona Brand Building Blueprint™ Programme is for you? Let’s see…

 

• Can you clearly articulate in one simple sentence what your brand stands for, and what makes it different to your competition? 

   

• Do you know the key ingredients to create a strong brand and how to leverage them for your success?

   

• Have you got a clear sense of where you stand in the market?

 

• Do you know what works best for your brand?

 

 • Are you considering rebranding but don’t know where to start?

 

• Have you uncovered where you may be unconsciously sabotaging your brand building efforts?

 

• Are you fed up with all the conflicting “mystifying” information and jargon about “branding” and need the “What Is” and “How To” essentials in a nutshell?

  

• Are you frustrated, losing market influence, opportunities or business to the competition?

 

• Do you have a great product or service but struggle with saying what really makes you different and how to effectively get your message in front of the people who need your services most?

 

• Are you being dragged into a price war or discounting? (where only those with the deepest pockets wins!) 

 

• Do you know the key strategic do’s and don’ts for your brand behaviours and communications?

 

• Do you have absolute clarity on who your bullseye customer is together with how to satisfy their needs, wants, loves, hates and aspirations?

 

• Have you uncovered how to build strong relationships, through your brand, with your ideal customers so they become your brand champions, buying and referring your brand repeatedly?

 

• Do you have great relationships with your existing customers, want to keep it like that, but are unsure why they really like your brand and choose you?

 

• Have you figured out how to sustain, deepen and expand those relationships with your customers so your brand stays relevant and continues to meet and exceed their needs?

 

• Have you developed a brand strategy to create a sustainable, influential business or organisation into the future?

 

Fact: A strong brand makes it clear to both you and your customers what you have to offer and why it matters to them.

 

You’re passionate about your business. The question is, do your customers know and do they even care? 

 

Let’s be honest, the joy of being an entrepreneur or leader of your business fades somewhat when you’re trying to increase your sales and you’re short on time or distracted, either because you don’t have as many resources as you’d like… 

or you’re a seasoned entrepreneur and you need to take your brand further, faster so you can free up your time, maintain your concentration in core areas and give yourself breathing room to focus on taking your business to the next level.

 

SMEs, organisation leaders and seasoned entrepreneurs the Persona Brand Building Blueprint™ Programme is for you because it gives you the direction to accelerate your brand’s effectiveness, so you can grow your business more profitably. It’s also the critical business tool for solving brand building problems.

    “I recently organized a large Business Forum for business owners and stakeholders entitled ‘After the Storm – New Business Opportunities’ to highlight the challenges and changing face of doing business in 2013. I was delighted to engage Lorraine Carter to speak at the Forum as I have seen first hand her expertise in Branding and Design.

    More importantly I know Lorraine as a Professional Speaker who delivers not only excellent content but is passionate about the positive financial impact of great branding and design.

    Lorraine’s talk entitled ‘Brand Your Way Out of Recession’ was extremely well received. Her clarity, eloquence and use of storytelling evoked clear examples of how both big, medium and even small businesses have reached the top with successful use of effective branding and design.

    I’d recommend Lorraine as a Speaker at your next event or conference. She is an expert in what she does but more importantly she is an expert who knows how to speak about it!”

    Sharon Cahir | Author Solicitor Lawyers and Leaders Coach and Trainer

    “I have had the benefit of working alongside Lorraine Carter with mutual clients and will happily do so again.

    Lorraine understands the power of brands for businesses in a way that makes practical sense to businesses. Her dedication to her craft is a great credit to her along with her attention to her clients and the details that matter.

    Lorraine understands how to work with people who don’t work with brands on a daily basis and above all Lorraine has a bottom line value orientation. I look forward to continuing working with Lorraine and her team at Persona Branding & Design.”

    “The Maguire & Paterson brand was established in 1882 and therefore the rebranding and new packaging had to be managed in a very sensitive and caring manner.

    Persona Branding & Design worked very effectively with the M&P management team ensuring that the findings of consumer research were correctly interpreted and factored into the brand revitalization and new range designs. We found their ability to steer us of significant benefit.

    Persona Branding & Design also ensured that we kept our focus on core objectives and diplomatically challenged us at various stages on our thought process, ensuring that any brand preferences did not stray from the core objectives.

    We would have no hesitation in recommending Persona Branding & Design and we would be very pleased to speak with any potential client(s).”
