Brand Building Experiences on Verges

From converging delusional mediatic mediums to diverging business relations in the current hard times, we are witnessing them all. Trends focus is shifting to the verge of inhumane selfish practices laced with political instigations. Amidst that, how a brand or a business should build itself?

The urge for success is burning more fires than ever, with small businesses being shut down with no reparations. Not relating with the extinctions like discussed the verges, building a brand too with experience is the need of the hour and for the same, different touchpoints are needed to be counted.

At first, brands build upon staying intact with their core values and missions. Over the years, their audience tends to realize their 'story behind it, and that eventually leads to brand equity. Conceptualized as sensations, feelings, and behavioral responses evoked by brand stimuli, brand experiences are a major in building a brand. Advertising and hands-on XP help consumers perceive a brand in a closer way. Secondly, brand satisfaction drives a cyclical experience. The affective response to the purchase situation i.e. Satisfaction derived from the prior purchase leaves an impact on subsequent purchases and experiences. Thirdly, the trust in the brand i.e. Brand Equity triggers the experience nerve which comes over a while. Brands get to build on Brand equity!

In other words, credibility leveraged through a recurring buy is called trust that endures experiences via products and services.

The Gap
Once upon a time, when a brand possesses a monopoly but didn't evolve through the times, loses its trust and the image starts to vanish. Here, the concept of overhauling comes into action, where brands with vanished visibilities are restored through new and innovative branding strategies. Branding elements such as logo, color palette, shape, tagline, tone of voice, fonts, imagery, positioning, and taste are redefined in a way to boosts the brand.

The Future.
Future can only be predicted and directional-ized, but to map a one for providing experiences, one has to work round the clock to overcome challenges of time.

Some of the predictive(s) are as follows -

  1. Shifting from neutral
    For the past one and half years, the challenges posed are not vanishing but keeps on increasing. For a high-profile brand, it's a chance to take a stance and shift from neutrals. As the economies are re-opening, so the boom of it, they should concentrate on the new mediums emerging and take a (risky) shot.
  2. Lead with brand authenticity
    Leaving the skeptics behind, brands should provide their authentic flavor now more than ever. Standing on commitments and promises would help in building and retaining the trust of the (new) audience.
  3. Be adaptive!
    The new age of privacy will make it harder in digital dissolvements. Tracking marketing effectiveness and ROI would be a challenging task.
  4. Speak with purpose
    In current times, the brand purpose should be clear, redefined, and compelling with proper communication to resonate with the target audience. No touchpoints should be left, as the opportunity missed will never come back in the same form.
  5. Old School MEETS New School
    The ‘Phygital’ approach is bridging the gaps of traditional and advanced techs colliding to provide experiential retail. Whether on Appstore or in-store, the consumer should ‘FEEL’ in all caps. That’s from where the demographical attraction will come.
  6. Author experiences
    As the industry giants, other brands should start the authorship of their user experiences (UX’s). It’s the master card that will never fail to endure. The merger approach will be the talk to sail the ship.

Concluding biblically, brands all over the world are on the verge of either re-build or sustaining their brand experiences.
