Human Centric is the New Black

We have it all wrong!  We talk about getting more sales, growing the business by revenue....and it usually feels like we're chasing a rainbow.  Trust is what we should be pursuing because Trust is the currency of business!

How do we create trust in our business?

1. Put people at the center of everything.
2. Define and live out your values.
3. Deliver consistently on your brand promise.

Your startup needs more than a great product and visual identity....it needs a strong brand strategy.  A true brand consists of strategy(why), narrative (who) and experience (how and what). Here are three ways that true branding will help your start up.

 

1. It helps you stand out from the others

2. It provides clarity for your customers

3.It provides inspiration for your talent

What if you could make more precise innovation choices?  What if your customers were fiercely loyal?  And what if the people you sell to became your biggest champions? It can happen but it requires something you probably haven't heard in too many branding or business development meetings....it requires empathy.  Empathy is the future of branding.

1. They truly engage through media

2. Their narrative is larger than their product

3. The aspire to deliver excellence

4. They understand and anticipate their customers needs and problems

Contrary to popular belief, growth is not a strategy....it's actually the result of a strategy.  In order for a strategy to work you need it to work with two main audiences: your customers and your employees.  Neither of these will rally around a strategy of growth.  They want more from you and your business deserves more from you. What do you think?

It's more than a logo, it's more than a reputation....it's actually quite simple. Your brand is what is imprinted on the minds of your customers.  In other words, your brand is what your customers think about you.
