Are you making the most of your brand?

How do you go about capturing and communicating what your brand is all about?

Your brand can be one of your most valuable company assets: a key foundation of your business. Used effectively, it helps drive innovation, sales and success, sets you apart from competitors, and strengthens your connections with customers, prospects, partners and staff. To achieve all this, you need to take a strategic approach.

What will I learn?

In this webinar we will explore brand strategy, helping you gain a deeper understanding of what your brand is, the different elements you need to consider, and how you can harness these insights to benefit your business.

During this webinar we will cover areas such as:

• What a brand is, and how to make the most of it.
• If perception is reality: do customers (or staff) share your view of your business?
• How to create audience personas: humanising your target audiences.
• How to develop your brand values.
• Can a business have personality?
• How to position your brand.
• Your brand vision and mission.
• What’s your promise?
• Communicating your brand: messaging and design.
• Product and corporate brand naming.
• A Q&A

The workshop will include hands-on exercises and group discussion. We’ll look at real world examples to illustrate how successful businesses create value from branding, with opportunities for you to ask questions on this vital topic.
