3 things to ❌ avoid ❌ when doing brand x brand collaborations (So your brand can do it better ✨) 🙈 Partnering with brands that don't align with your values. If a brand *bigger than yours approaches for a collaboration, though it may be tempting to say yes, you don't want to confuse your audience and send mixed messaging about your brand to current or potential customers. 🙈 Not planning your collabs in advance. Collabs should be thought through and planned in advance, like when you do the rest of your marketing plans. Otherwise you risk half-baked ideas and a sloppy execution. Which is never ideal for marketing. And when you're working with another brand, you risk letting them down too. 🙈 Not aligning your collabs with your business goals. Why bother to do a collaboration and put the time, effort and budget into an activity that does not feed into your overall business goals? It doesn't make sense right! #brandcollaborations #marketingtips

When it comes to assessing the strength of your brand, consider these key factors: 1️⃣ Clarity: Does your brand clearly communicate what your business does or who it appeals to? 2️⃣ Consistency: Is your brand message consistent across all touchpoints, creating a cohesive identity? 3️⃣ Recognition: Are customers and service providers able to easily identify your brand and its offerings? 4️⃣ Differentiation: Does your brand stand out from competitors, offering a unique value proposition? Knowing when to bring in marketing expertise is crucial. Here are some signs it might be time to add a marketing team member to your staff: 1️⃣ Your marketing knowledge has reached its limit, and you need fresh insights. 2️⃣ You're struggling to meet your business goals due to marketing gaps within your team. 3️⃣ Delegating marketing tasks to existing team members isn't yielding the desired results. Remember, building a strong brand takes time and effort, but the payoff is invaluable. #BrandStrategy #MarketingInsights #BusinessGrowth #RVASmallBusinessShow #RVASmallBusinessNetwork Carlene Jackson | Joan Bowling, DTM

Why shouldn't your brand belong to your marketing department? Because positioning isn’t just a marketing or messaging tool. It’s how you drive every decision, action, and behavior across your company. It’s about aligning every aspect of your business to the core idea you want to be known for—your Idea Worth Rallying Around®. Think about it. When brand only lives in marketing, it’s confined to the surface—logos, colors, taglines, and campaigns. But when it's owned across departments, it becomes a culture. It’s how the product team prioritizes features. It's how the sales team speaks to customers. It's how the leadership team sets vision. It's how the team operates. It's how your whole company is valued. If you silo brand to marketing, you lose consistency, authenticity, and ultimately, trust. wearemotto.com

𝗖𝗮𝗻 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝗪𝗮𝗿𝗽 𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲?!? 𝗡𝗼𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴... Long-term brand success is a perfect blend of time and investment. That's your expectations game❗❗ I find myself increasingly trying to explain to FMCG investors and owners, coming from outside the industry, that building a brand takes time, no matter the level of investment. (1) Spending a lot of money is not a substitute for time: there is a real risk of building awareness without building equity (i.e., conversion problems, price sensitivity-related hurdles, and lack of uniqueness....) 2) No investments in the short-term make it impossible to measure any results, and this often drives risky strategy rethinking 3) Time makes it easier to gauge the effects and reassess 4) The Bottom Right Corner: where overnight successes (a decade in the making) usually are born 5) The brand-building area, where time (patience and consistency) and investments work to drive sales Agree or disagree with the impact of time and investment on brand success?

I got zero attention in my first business. ➤ It was very generic ➤ I wasn't different ➤ It was unmemorable I was being who I THOUGHT you wanted me to be. 3 years later, I applied brand strategy. ➤ I identified my mission, vision and core values ➤ I detailed my ideal client ➤ I developed proper messaging to attract them ➤ I discovered what made me truly unique Today: ✅ I keep gaining more and more attention ✅ I’m on a clear path to further success ✅ I’m being me, truly unapologetically, me ✅ I’m more fulfilled than ever Brand strategy saved my business. It set me free personally. Imagine what it could do for you. 👉🏼 DM me now to get your real brand.

🚀 Building a Strong Brand: The Heart of Success 🚀 In today's competitive landscape, a strong brand is more than just a logo or a tagline—it's the essence of who you are and what you stand for. A strong brand is the foundation upon which successful businesses are built. A strong brand can: 🌟 Differentiate you from competitors 🌟 Build trust and credibility with customers 🌟 Drive customer loyalty and advocacy 🌟 Attract top talent 🌟 Command premium pricing Investing in your brand is not just about marketing—it's about creating a lasting impression that resonates with your audience. It's about consistently delivering on your brand promise and building meaningful relationships with your customers. As a Chief Marketing Officer, I've seen firsthand the impact a strong brand can have on a company's bottom line. It's not just about selling products or services—it's about creating a brand that people believe in and want to be a part of. So, whether you're a startup or an established company, remember: your brand is your most valuable asset. Nurture it, invest in it, and watch it propel your business to new heights! #BrandBuilding #MarketingStrategy #BrandIdentity
