building a mosaic brand
DESCRIPTION
The world has changed. It’s not about creating one-way, company-to-customer impressions anymore —if it ever was. Sure, you still put your products and messages in the marketplace. But now your customers put their experiences and expectations there, too. It all works together to create what we’ve come to agree is a “brand.” But the image is out-of-date: success in this new era isn’t about searing impressions... it’s about arranging them. It’s about creating a mosaic of inputs and ideas, carefully positioned relative to each other. In this session, learn how you can collect all the pieces—both organization- and crowd-generated—and turn them into something people see, understand, and, most importantly, care about enough to pay for.TRANSCRIPT

That doesn’t work anymore. (If it ever did.)
They’re not cattle.
They’re people.
Brands exist in heads (and hearts)…
Not headquarters.
BRAND ≠
LOGO (And never did.)
BRAND ≠
MESSAGE (It’s bigger.)
BRAND ≠
PR (And never did.)
It’s not…a brand.
It’s a mosaic.
And you need to build yours.
