Despite what many believe, brand isn’t about your logo, tagline and glossy brochure. Instead, a strong brand integrates multiple components, all of them necessary, including customer interactions, employee communications, corporate philosophy and advertising/marketing efforts. Your brand extends to your employees, customers, the media and even the general public – it’s what they perceive you as, and their perception is your reality.
If these components don’t consistently reinforce your brand, customers will become dissatisfied. The negative impact of their perception can erode your brand equity and create misperceptions about your company in the market. On the other hand, brand consistency throughout all levels of the organization helps drive an organization to grow and prosper.
