What's covered...
Growing Brand Culture
Embedding purpose, values and identity internally
The success of your brand, and whether you’ll achieve your brand goals, depends entirely on your people. It’s essential they feel a sense of ownership and belief in your organisational identity – if they don’t believe in it, customers won’t either, no matter how saturated your marketing is. Developing the right tools and resources, along with intentional identity and values onboarding, is key in enabling employees to live out your brand and core values.
“Without clarity and consistent reinforcement of your values and identity internally, chances are you will struggle to build brand trust externally, and your company will remain in a consistent reactive state.”
Growing Brand Trust
Communicating purpose, values and identity externally
An obvious part of brand growth is taking action to market your brand, but that’s not the whole picture – it’s how you nurture your brand that matters. To build positive brand awareness, shift perceptions, or ultimately achieve whatever goals you have set out in your strategy, you need to take not only consistent, but conscious action. It’s not about being the squeaky wheel and getting as much stuff out there as possible, that actually breaks trust, instead you need to earn attention. This requires a thoughtful approach to your marketing and communications, where everything is anchored to your values and brand strategy – not just your sales or fundraising targets.
“People trust a brand when there is a clear alignment in what they stand for, what they communicate and what they actually do.”
