After working in the world of brand marketing for nearly a decade, I felt it was time to re-evaluate my contribution to the world of marketing.
The pillars of brand marketing are often very focused on conversion, which was an important element in my role as a marketing manager for different brands. Even though sales and recruiting new consumers to a brand are crucially important, very often brands tend to neglect layers that go beyond brand figures. And in these deeper layers we can often find the drive for a consumer to interact with a brand and, ultimately, stay loyal to a brand. In my brutal opinion, many brands still tend to neglect what their consumers really need.
A new perspective is needed to build stronger brands. The ease of access to information combined with the fact that consumers are more educated than ever before, shows why they don’t respond to the same brand strategies anymore. Consumers require more from brands because they know what’s possible and understand their own value. The purchase decision is not taken lightly, and brands need to create complex interactions to ensure it.
This is a great opportunity for brands to build a better journey for themselves and for their consumers. It’s not just about the product anymore, although it remains crucial, it’s about creating something bigger, about being true to a set of values and being responsible. Brands now have to think about and embed themselves in the routines that surround their product; what the consumer is doing before and after using it, as well as their mindset.
Sustainable brands are given the opportunity to help shape the next normal. It is time to adapt fast and remain relevant, now and tomorrow.
