Brand Strategy and Positioning

Thousands of new products and services are being released into the market every day. As the market becomes crowded with similar products and services, a company’s brand becomes the most important asset enabling it to differentiate itself and increase customer demand. For companies that are geared towards regional or global branding, developing a brand strategy, which is differentiated and in line with customer expectations and built upon the company’s strengths, is becoming more important

Required Criteria for an efficient Brand Strategy

Having a differentiated brand strategy is not enough to maintain long-term sustainability. To make a brand stronger than ever and to maintain sustainable brand values, companies need to build up a well-defined brand management structure as well.

Brands can exist as long as they can transfer their strategies to the market in a consistent, continuous, and coherent manner. It is critical that the employees fully understand and implement brand strategy so that each step taken into the marketplace is in line with the brand.

In addition, it is vital to measure brand performance by different criteria making employees integral to the brand’s success and improvement and enabling the monitoring of the improvement. The “Brand Value Map” tool developed by Deloitte creates a structural framework for revealing the real factors influencing brand value and develops a brand monitoring system.
