A brand is not your logo. A brand is not your identity. A brand is not a product.
A brand is a person’s gut feeling about a product, service, or organization. Brands are now defined by individuals, not companies or markets. It’s a gut feeling because people are emotional, intuitive beings and make decisions based upon those feelings. So, it’s not what you say it is, it’s what they say it is.
Developing strong brand strategies is hard, almost as hard as leading great workshops. Keeping people engaged and on task can be a challenge so I created this brainstorm worksheet for some of the workshops I've led. I have found it pretty helpful in guiding the conversation and making it more collaborative and interactive.
Thought I would share the love in case it proves useful to anyone else out there :)
Feel free to leave me comments or feedback on how to make it stronger or more effective.

Key Takeaways:
1. Real content is king
2. Find ways to show EEAT
3. Repurpose across all platforms
3. BRANDING
A brand is not your logo. A brand is not your identity. A brand is not a product.
A brand is a person’s gut feeling about a product, service, or organization. Brands
are now defined by individuals, not companies or markets. It’s a gut feeling because
people are emotional, intuitive beings and make decisions based upon those
feelings. So, it’s not what you say it is, it’s what they say it is.
4.
5. SO WHY ARE WE HERE?
Branding can evoke trust, reliability, and delight.
6. THE PACKAGE
For products that sell at retail, packaging is the strongest and last chance
to make a sale.
DECISION PROCESS:
1. Observation. Notice the package
2. Curiosity. Asks “What is it?”
3. Wonder. “Why should I care?”
4. Desire. Wants to be persuaded.
5. Decision. Needs proof.
7. EFFECTIVENESS
By presenting information to match this
sequence a package can sell a product more
effectively.
11. If you communicate with your customers
ONLINE, your website needs to follow
a SIMILAR user experience; one that supplies
users with ONLY the information they need
instead of trying to squeeze EVERYTHING
onto one page (LIKE THIS) making your users
do ALL of the work and making them want to
LEAVE...

a celebrity, and a magazine.
Which has the aura that your
business is driving towards?
Are you flashy and in the
spotlight or are you behind the

Personas capture data and
humanistic views,
communicating a story about
each of the common archetypes
that were uncovered during the
needs analysis research.
Personas are an effective and
reliable way to offer actionable
guideposts for strategy and
design decisions by providing a
first-person view of each group
that represents primary needs
and goals.
User segments will cover a
wide range of end users while
Personas will aggregate key
groups across end user
segments, helping to
inform the vision and
strategies.

PROPOSITION
Your VALUES define what your

your core rules. They provide
the bounds or limits of how the
employees will conduct their
activities while carrying out the
vision and mission. They are
statements about how the
organization will value
customers, suppliers, and the
internal community.
Value Statements samples:
• Teamwork – we are
committed to effective
partnerships and we
seek opportunities to form
alliances with others.
• Integrity – we are committed
to act in an ethical, honest
manner.

comfortable.

difference in their response.
Understand which is right for
your clients, and how you
would like them to respond.

MISTAKES TO AVOID
1. DON’T FAKE EMOTION
2. DON’T MAKE IT BORING OR TURN IT INTO A THESIS

4. DON’T CLAIM TO BE WHAT YOU’RE NOT
42. MISSION
When properly constructed, a
mission statement should
provide a clear, concise
description of an organization's
overall purpose. A mission
statement should answer three
questions:
• What do we do?
• How do we do it?
• For whom do we do it?
An effective mission statement
has these key characteristics:
• Clear: No complex wording.
• Concise: The fewer words the
better; less than 25 if possible.
• Catchy: Snappy sounding
without using slang or
colloquialisms.
• Memorable: Easy to recall;
easy to explain.
“To offer the best possible personal computing technology, and to put that technology in the hands
of as many people as possible” +Apple
43. VISION
A vision is a statement about
what your organization wants
to become. All members of the
organization should be able to
identify with it and it should
help them feel proud, excited,
and part of something much
bigger than themselves. A
vision should stretch the
organization’s capabilities
and image of itself. It gives
shape and direction to the
organization’s future.
Visions range in length from a
couple of words to several
pages; the shorter it is, the
easier it is to remember.
Effective vision statements are
clear, concise, catchy and
memorable.
“To be the world's best in chemicals and electronic imaging.” +Kodak

PITCH
A business that is too
complicated to explain in less
than 30 seconds is too
complicated for a prospect to
understand after an hour long
presentation. Keep it concise.
