I’m thrilled to be one of the very first guests on Business 3.0, a new podcast series from Eliot Wagonheim which is all about evolving business leadership and helping companies move forward faster.
On “The Hidden Secrets of Branding Done Well” podcast, Eliot and I discuss how so many companies still equate branding with “logo.” And in doing so, they often neglect to consider how their brand aligns with their business goals and the perception – and reputation – they desire to build.
Our conversation took a deep dive into the concept and application of branding well, as well as the consequences of having a weak brand.
Here are just a few of the areas we covered:
We also discussed the specific steps of the branding process and the value of conducting a brand audit regularly. After all, constantly changing external conditions, emerging audience needs and the evolution of your organization, necessitate a periodic assessment of the strength of your current brand and marketing communications. It is simply essential not to put your brand on “set and forget.”
The best part of the podcast? The opportunity to share my personal “rant” on branding – what makes me passionate about great branding, why it’s an absolute must to do it right and what companies do to ruin their brands that drives me nuts.
