In the current state of digital, it's common that brands have an A Dominate Face (attention dominate) on The Brand Triangle. They can garner attention and be the most evangelistic in nature when it comes to content creation and distribution. The issue with brands who are strong in attention is that they can often lack transactional presence which ultimately subtracts from their ability to build authority and mindshare over time.

In today's episode, we talk about two types of brands: Attention dominate brands with an adjacent strength of Behavior (transactional presence) AND attention dominate brands with an adjacent strength of Conscious (building mindshare and authority with an audience beyond attention. With these two types of brands (AB's and AC's) we talk through their strengths, weaknesses, common mistakes, and fruitful opportunities. Enjoy the episode.

In this episode, we begin diving into our brand new business and marketing book: "The Digital Tabernacle - The Ultimate Guide to Positioning, Advertising, and Scaling Christian Organizations in a Digital Age." Marketing and advertising are often looked at from the perspective of a product, service, brand, or vendor TOWARDS an audience or customer/consumer. We observe the journey one will take from initial brand contact all the way to becoming a customer, member, or brand advocate, and we try to align our marketing and communications with those efforts. Very seldom do we look at marketing from what a consumer or customer gives us.

How does a customer pay a brand, an organization, or a company aside from their money? Find out in today's episode.
