This document discusses important factors for effective brand positioning, including establishing a frame of reference, leveraging points of parity, and having compelling points of difference. It defines these concepts and provides examples to illustrate them. A frame of reference signals the goal a brand can achieve, and points of parity demonstrate how a brand meets the minimum requirements within its frame. Strong points of difference that are desirable and deliverable can distinguish a brand, but must consider brand performance, imagery, and consumer insights. Over time, brands may deepen their positioning through laddering up benefits or maintaining a consistent big idea while varying attributes. The key is regularly assessing the frame of reference, points of parity, and points of difference.

Brands are different from products in a way that brands are “what the consumers buy”, while products are “what concern/companies make”. Brand is an accumulation of emotional and functional associations. Brand is a promise that the product will perform as per customer’s expectations. It shapes customer’s expectations about the product. Brands usually have a trademark which protects them from use by others. A brand gives particular information about the organization, good or service, differentiating it from others in marketplace. Brand carries an assurance about the characteristics that make the product or service unique. A strong brand is a means of making people aware of what the company represents and what are it’s offerings.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

Unveiling the Secrets How Does Generative AI Work.pdfSam H
At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.
6. It dictates the type of associations
that will function as point of parity and point
of difference.
7. Brands in same frame of reference
Competitive frame of reference for Safola Oil in same category:
Fortune, Dhara are vegetable oils
Competitive frame of reference in other category:
Ghee, Dalda Ghee (Hydrogenated vegetable oil)
All comes under means-of-frying frame of reference
8. The more innovative
the product, the greater the difficulty of
fitting it into an established frame and
meeting the
frame’s minimum requirements.
9. Example: Motorola’s Envoy
Envoy was a personal digital assistant launched in 1994.
It received messages wirelessly like a pager, but no one viewed it as a pager
because it’s expensive and large.
Envoy lacked sufficient points of parity to belong to any existing category.
Without a clear frame of reference, consumers weren’t sure why
11. After considering frame of reference, the
points of parity must be met if consumers are
to perceive your product as a legitimate and
credible player
within that frame.
12. Example: Banks
Consumers might not consider a bank truly a “bank” unless it offers
checking and savings plans, safe-deposit boxes, traveller's checks, and
so on.
13. The approach
you use to meet these minimum
requirements for playing the game will
depend on where
your product is in its life cycle.
15. New Brand
There is importance of identifying points of parity
when introducing a new brand.
The brand positioning focusing only on a point of difference leaves out the
important issues,
but it should not forget what business it’s in.
16. Example: Maruti Gypusy
India’s first ever SUV, this brand was launched in 1985, and promoted
as offroader.
It started on a very good note but didn’t last long.
Reason being:
Ambiguous target market and frame of reference
Indians don’t use SUVs only on rough terrains but use it as a proper
car.
Low mileage, high price, improper seating arrangement
17. Brand Extension
It’s easy—and dangerous—to short change points of parity.
The more an extension differs from a base brand, the greater the importance
of focusing on the frame of reference.
Establish point of parities with competitors before stressing its difference.
18. Example: Harpic Toilet cleaner
Harpic has recently introduced its Bathroom cleaning product in Indian market
years after establishing its main product toilet cleaner.
The another innovative product, Harpic flushmatic, which they have positioned
keeping the desire to keep toilet clean after every use in mind.
19. Established Brand
Established brands also need to reassess points of parity from
time to time, because attributes that were once differentiators
can become minimum requirements.
Hold off competitors’ point of difference by creating it competitive
point of parity.
20. Example: Dettol launched hand wash with a particular packaging which was
soon copied by other established brands as Lifebuoy
Hence, it is still trying to work on its packaging and trying to innovate
more on its No-Touch technology
21. A brand can “break even” in an area where competitors are
trying to
break away and then achieve a point of difference in some
other area.
22. Example: American express and Visa
Visa: More convenient, can be used at many places
American express: Prestige associated with card
Both are trying to blunt each other’s advantage.
24. Strong, favourable, unique associations that distinguish a
brand from others in the same frame of reference are
fundamental to successful brand positioning. But it’s
important to avoid a one dimensional
view of differentiation.

26. Brand Performance Association
Relate to the ways in which a product or service attempts to meet customers’
functional needs.
These associations, which are based on intrinsic properties of the brand.
Come into play when brands are assessed on characteristics a buyer can
investigate prior to purchase.

28. When product’s concrete qualities and features. In such cases,
brand performance associations may be all you need to
distinguish your product.
29. Brand Imagery Association
Brand imagery is typically established by
depicting who uses the brand and under what circumstances.
Example: Subway represents its point
of difference by using a spokesman who
has lost weight. This device implies that
Subway is
for the average person who wants a simple
way to get in shape.
30. Consumer Insight Association
Consumer insight associations are generally used when a brand’s
performance and imagery don’t differ much from those of the
competition.
Show consumers it has insight into their problems or goals can
then make the case that it is the solution.
Can’t be relied too much on this only as insight into consumer’s
goals are readily emulated.
Example: Introduction of Move, ointment as Spray.
31. Are point of difference
desirable to customers,
and can you deliver them?
32. Desirability
Should be perceived by audience relevant and beliveable.
Example: Introduction of milk base in soaps, providing moisturized skin after bathing.
Before this soaps which makes skin oil free considered to be good.
33. Deliverability
Point of difference need to meet three criteria to be
deliverable:
Feasible
Profitable
Preemptive, Defensible and difficult to attack
34. All these three elements need to be internally
consistent at any point of time and over time.
35. In some cases, the brand’s position is
sufficiently rich that exactly the same position
can be sustained over time.
36. Example: Parle- G
Product was instantly recognized by its iconic white and yellow wax paper which
was after many years replaced by plastic wrapper featuring the same young girl.
37. Presenting same point of difference over time does
not sustain a brand’s performance.
The meaning associated with brand can be deepen by the following ways:
38. Laddering Up
A process where brand is positioned in such a way that its point of differences
become its essence and implies goal attainment.
Done by demonstrating more explicitly how the brand is related to the customers’
goals and requires insight about what motivates consumers to use a brand
Focuses on

39. Big Idea
Entails identifying a differentiating benefit that is important to consumers
and presenting, over time, a variety of attributes that imply the benefit.
The context is kept constant so that people can readily associate the
ad with the brand name, ensuring strong brand linkage.
40. Recap
The key questions you need to ask about your brand—
Have we established a frame?
Are we leveraging our points of parity?
Are the points of difference compelling?
may not change, but their context certainly will.
