Purpose<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Modern consumers, especially Millennials and Generation Z, are not satisfied that the reason for a company&#8217;s existence is exclusively profit. In practice, they hope to be able to connect through common values \u200b\u200band causes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is reflected in that 77% of consumers buy from brands that share the same values \u200b\u200bas them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, Coca-Cola&#8217;s statement is to &#8220;refresh the world&#8221; by encouraging moments of happiness. Or, in another corner of the market, Microsoft&#8217;s goal is to increase productivity and collaboration between teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Establishing a purpose for your brand is about being able to create a way to speak with your consumers on a closer level and not exclusively from the intention of the sale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Brand Name<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The name is the branding element par excellence. It refers to the word or set of words that are used to identify a company, product, service, or concept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Did you know that 77% of consumers make purchases based on a brand?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, Apple positioned itself as the world&#8217;s most valuable brand in 2020 according to Forbes, despite the fact that there are many companies in the market that sell excellent smartphones at more affordable prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Iconic brands convey their value to their customers. Hence the importance of naming. You must create a name that is noticeable, unique, and, above all, that conveys the essence of the brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Logo or logotype<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The logo is a symbol of the visual identification of a brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A good logo provides a very high capacity for remembrance within the consumer&#8217;s mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just mention the Nike Swoosh, Apple&#8217;s bitten apple or McDonald&#8217;s golden M. They are so memorable that they do not even need to be accompanied by the brand name to be recognized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are classic examples that demonstrate the relevance of this visual representation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Colors<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Brand colors also affect how people perceive a brand and as with all elements of branding, you must choose wisely, as the use of a characteristic color can increase brand recognition by 80%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, when you see a person on a bicycle with a bright orange coat, and hat. The choice of this color was not fortuitous, since orange represents speed and is a color that calls for sale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We recommend that you review the psychology of color to understand how each color is associated with an emotion. Thus, you can attribute to your brand a particular meaning for your products or services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Communication tone<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It is about the way a brand transmits its essence, values \u200b\u200b, and attributes through visual or written communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The tone of communication is reflected in all the pieces of content and in all the channels of the brand:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Social networks: publications, videos, responses to comments, interactions with users, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Website and blog: posts and articles, product descriptions, user interface, UX, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Email: Email Marketing campaigns, newsletters, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Traditional media: advertising spots, radio spots, press announcements, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maintaining a consistent communication tone is crucial to sending a consistent message and genuinely connecting with consumers. That&#8217;s because 86% of consumers say that authenticity is a key factor when deciding which brands they like and support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Personality<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Personality is one of the most powerful branding elements out there, as consumers like a brand for the same reason they like people: to share common values.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of this can be summed up in one concept: brand persona.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is about representing the values \u200b\u200band perceptions that you want to associate with your brand and that are closely related to the values \u200b\u200band perceptions that inspire your customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Slogan<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A slogan is a phrase that summarizes the value proposition or the fundamental purpose of a brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Their role, beyond remembrance and positioning, is to inspire consumers and show them what a brand stands for and what its products can help them achieve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Great slogans are honest, catchy, straightforward, and long-lasting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. Product features<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The shape, the smell, the taste, the texture, and all the characteristics that can only be made with a certain product are elements of the Branding that brands use to create a satisfactory experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is a fact that branding is sensory. In reality, customer loyalty increases by 43% with the activation of 2 or 3 senses and increases up to 58% when 4 or 5 senses are activated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Think of the classic KFC Chicken Popcorn that many try to emulate, the original and secret taste of a Coke. These are examples of branding applied to the product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9. Audio Branding<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As we saw, other elements of branding matter as much as visual identity. For example, did you know that we remember 83% more of what we hear than what we see?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this sense, Audio Branding, or Sound Branding, consists of creating the sound identity of a brand through sounds, melodies, and voices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are various Audio Branding actions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sound logos (like the Netflix \u201cta-dum &#8221; that plays before streaming starts).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sound claim (like the renowned \u201cEA Sports, it&#8217;s in the game &#8221; ).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is one of the elements of branding that works the most with the subconscious and can considerably strengthen your brand-building efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">10. Brand experience<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The brand experience encompasses all aspects of a customer&#8217;s experience with a brand; from the zero moments of truth to the after-sales service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It includes all your perceptions and experiences such as visual identity, shopping experience, customer service, product quality, and the personality that a brand conveys to the consumer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being one of the most important elements of branding in both B2B and B2C businesses, creating a brand experience can influence whether consumers will buy the product, how much they are willing to pay, and their level of loyalty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Consumers are not always rational. Many of the purchase decisions are born as a result of the emotion and the value that a brand manages to transmit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For all this, it is important to create a unique, disruptive, transparent, and memorable brand identity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mastering the elements of branding to create a brand strategy that reflects your company&#8217;s values
