This is a presentation on Brand and Branding, written and presented by me recently.
The presentations tells about, what a brand is and how does it differs from other existing competitors. It tells about the difference between branding and marketing.
It covers certain examples of successful brands which have become one by adopting certain marketing strategies.
The presentation also comprises of certain Q & A's which could be helpful in becoming a brand. Though there is no specific method in this world to be able to become a brand.
The questions must be answered and the answers must be evaluated such that one could understand the importance of being a brand.
I strongly believe that becoming a brand is more important than sales and marketing. Sales and marketing are just two constituents of a brand.
In the race of achieving the targets and doing sales, almost all the companies miss upon the things which could have led them to become a brand.
As the inflow of money is faster than becoming a brand, companies usually suffer temporary profits rather permanent brand loyalty of the people they sell their product and solutions to.
I hope it will be useful for a pretty basic level of understanding.

May fit in ROI deck; take out sub bullets
Exclusive use of OEM approved badges and logos - Specify Brand Equity of OEMs (investment of billions of dollars) – use properly
Your Shop is positioned to receive more Jobs and Sales through exclusive OEM Referral Programs – OEM wants cars fixed right. Protect brand. 62% customers bad repairs change oem brand within X months. 85% repairs going through independent – no line of site…..
NOTE: Caliber results?
During orientation you are shown that you have a micro-site. If you haven’t already done so, you should make sure this microsite is updated with your logo, pictures, business hours, etc. as this is where OEMs and AP is directing shops and insurers through locators and mobile apps.
Signs – were larger now reduced size based on shop demand (14x18 default). Can order large ones still.
Move slide with images to follow this
Include all sites for linking
Assured Performance will help you set up your micro site. Should be covered during orientation
Keep email up to date for making appointments! – tell golling story – more than one email.
