However, not everyone knows when exactly it should be done. So what is a brand strategy, and how can an organization, business, or public figure understand that it&#8217;s time to develop one?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Brands (images) exist for everything that can be reflected in the collective consciousness: products, services, companies, organizations, religions, and even ourselves \u2014 if we are working on public perception.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What is a brand strategy, and when should it be changed?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2042\" src=\"http:\/\/fob.in.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Rebranding_baner_topic_site_1200x720-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"553\" height=\"381\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A brand strategy is the management of perception, so it is developed immediately after the overall strategy of the organization or business, or after the business plan for a specific product or service in the company&#8217;s portfolio. In the first case, it is a corporate brand strategy; in the second, a product brand strategy. Based on this, a marketing or communication strategy and a media plan are then created.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You should consider <a href=\"https:\/\/fob.in.ua\/en\/\">developing a brand strategy<\/a> when you\u2019ve outgrown what you once were (just like we did over the six years since the launch of Friends of Brands). A brand needs a revision when:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">you see opportunities in new markets, niches, or territories;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">you\u2019ve changed or added new products, services, or areas of activity;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">you\u2019ve decided to compete for new consumer or fan segments;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the competitive landscape has changed \u2014 the market has modernized, expanded, reached a new level, or transformed due to technology;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">your customer or supporter has changed \u2014 matured, shifted in beliefs, or experienced a change in economic or social status;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">your team, approaches, or priorities in recruitment and staff development have changed.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Review this list and think about whether your current strategy covers all service types, audience types and moods, and goals.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Brand strategy as a candy<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/https:\/\/fob.in.ua\/#portfolio\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2040\" src=\"http:\/\/fob.in.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Rebranding_baner_topic_site_1200x720.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"528\" height=\"321\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Imagine that you or your company, organization, product, or service is a piece of candy. A brand strategy helps answer the following questions:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Among all audience options, who do we want to be the most desirable for (priority segments)?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Among which other candies and based on what criteria will this person make a choice (competitive landscape, brand mapping)?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What\u2019s in our wrapper (positioning, naming, slogan, identity) that will resonate with them?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What\u2019s in our ingredients (RTBs, brand attributes) that will convince them to choose us?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How do they usually make decisions?

Why? Here\u2019s the explanation:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>it cannot replace or precede a business or organizational strategy<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0A brand is the wrapper \u2014 the outward appeal, identity, logo, tone of voice (although, in many cases, the product\/service\/organization\/person also evolves during the brand strategy stage).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, a brand is an enhancement, a reflection, and a focus on what is already inherent in the product\/service\/organization\/person. It is not deception, mysticism, or fantasy, but the highlighting and amplification of qualities that matter to the target audience.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>it cannot influence awareness or sales without a communication plan and media plan<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0No matter how great your wrapper is or how well the product is adjusted to meet the expectations of key audiences, you still need to tell the story (put up billboards \/ send to bloggers \/ arrange tastings, etc.). The scale of communication activities \u2014 multiplied by 10 or 1000 \u2014 is what will actually solve the task.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>it cannot solve issues unrelated to branding<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Such as staffing, logistics, management, technology, finance, and so on. These require different types of strategies, even if they were identified during the research of your company, clients, or competitors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you\u2019ve figured out whether you need a <a href=\"http:\/\/fob.in.ua\/rebrendyng-internet-provajdera-hata-net\/\">new brand strategy<\/a> and what set of actions will go along with it, the next step is to decide who to entrust with the most important task.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Who creates a brand strategy, how, and how long it takes<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A team of researchers, strategists, and creatives usually develops such a strategy over the course of 2\u20133 months, and it is typically updated every 5\u20137 years. During the process, specialists conduct qualitative, quantitative, and field research on consumption, analyze industry data, international trends from more developed markets and sectors, the competitive landscape, and most importantly \u2014 the shared vision of the entire team: from the visionary perspective of top management to the day-to-day experience of frontline staff working with clients and audiences. All this is done to ensure the brand is consistent both inside the company and on the outside.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u0420\u0435\u0431\u0440\u0435\u043d\u0434\u0438\u043d\u0433 \u0442\u0430 \u0441\u0442\u0432\u043e\u0440\u0435\u043d\u043d\u044f \u043d\u043e\u0432\u043e\u0433\u043e \u0441\u0430\u0439\u0442\u0443<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":958,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[113,107],"tags":[129,155,163],"industries":[115],"class_list":["post-1325","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-product-brand-strategies","category-strategy-en","tag-b2b-consulting","tag-product-brand-strategies","tag-strategy-en","industries-b2b-consulting"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Developing a brand strategy: what to consider and how to create an effective strategy<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The basics of brand strategy: how to develop a unique brand that will win over your audience.
