Discovering your brand archetype and designing a brand personality around it can help you connect intuitively with your audience increasing brand loyalty, community creation, engagement, and conversions.
Brand archetypes aren't new, but many businesses are finding new ways to use these ancient character types to transform their brand in the new social economy.
Learn about the 12 brand archetypes, discover which ones suit your brand, and start developing your own brand archetype with this easy to follow guide.
Archetypal Branding provides you with a systematic way to:
• Clearly define the Brand so that it is compelling and credible to your key Target Audiences.
• Create a Brand Identity that all key internal Constituencies can agree on and work from.
• Increase the Reputation, Image, perceived Value and Brand Awareness of your Company
Recent studies have shown that the most potent component of premium brands is a clear identity that is grounded in the ultimate personality types deciphered by the Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung, the so-called Archetypes.
Tracking over 13,000 brands over a period of five years and interviewing more than 120,000 consumers across 100 product categories, archetypal researcher Carol Paerson found that archetypal brands outpaced non-archetypal ones by a factor of 97% in Market Value Added (a measure of how much value a company has added to, or subtracted from, its shareholder investment).
A Booz Allen Hamilton research report recently showed that „brand-guided companies have profitability margins nearly twice the industry standard. Brand-guided banks, for example, have an ROE of 19% compared to 8% for non brand-guided banks.“

SEEN Connects: Influencer Marketing ArchetypesSEEN Connects
SEEN Connects do influencer marketing a little differently. For some folk, followers, likes and all of the above determine whether a brand works with an influencer. For us, authenticity comes first – always. It's not about how much you pay, it's about how much you care. It's not about reach, it's about being genuine. Content that tries to sell doesn't, but content that tries to help, does. Instead of vanity metrics, we use archetypal alignment to determine which influencers will work for different campaigns.
Our presentation will explore…
➕What an archetype is
➕The 12 archetypes we regularly draw on
➕What different behaviours are and why they’re so important
➕12 influencers who match the 12 archetypes
➕How to make the most of archetypal alignment to benefit brand campaigns
We whipped these slides together for a webinar hosted in March 2020, but the data still stands and archetypes are as relevant as ever. If you'd like us to take your team through the deck for a more in-depth approach, drop us a line at info@seenconnects.com.
Brands have personalities too. But do they match the customers' wants? Brand archetypes are the common personalities that brands usually take on. A brand archetype helps a brand to connect to a certain target market and bring across a specific message about who they are and what they offer. Here are a few types of brand archetypes and what archetype should be chosen for a brand depending on what the target market is looking for.
