Branding

Branding is about creating a form of identity for a product, company or person that is planted in the minds of customers. In this text, you will learn the definition of branding and how you can create a branding strategy yourself.

What is branding?

Let's start by taking a closer look at the definition of branding. Branding is a hugely complex concept and can be practiced very differently from company to company. To get a better understanding, we will instead show you some examples of brands below:

  • Nike
  • Net
  • MASH

When you read the word Nike, you probably already think of smart sportswear because that's how Nike has branded itself. Netto, on the other hand, might make you think of cheap shopping, while MASH has branded itself as a restaurant with delicious food.

None of the above companies' brand impact on you is random, it all boils down to a branding strategy for each of them, how you want to plant their corporate identity in your head.

The definition of branding is about creating a strong association with a company, person or product with a specific identity, so when you need running shoes, Nike automatically comes to mind.

Building a brand is time-consuming and costs money, but with a strong market position, it will be cheaper to attract new customers and the customers you already have will become more loyal. That's why it's a good idea to create a branding strategy.


What is a branding strategy?

If you want to focus more on branding your business so you can plant your company identity in the minds of your customers and potential customers, a branding strategy is a good idea.

 As previously described, a brand is what your customers and potential customers think of when they see or hear a company name. This means that if you want to develop a brand, start by focusing on how you want your customers to think. What is your vision and what is the goal?

Once you have the overall strategic framework in place, you need to create a branding strategy plan that breaks your strategy down into smaller plans that you and your employees can more easily act on to ultimately achieve the goal.
