How do we maintain and growour brand?
A Brand is……the sum of the good, the bad, the ugly and the off-strategy. It is your best and worst product. It is your best and worst employee.
It is communicated through award-winning advertising as well as those ads that slipped through the approval cracks. It is your on-hold music and the demeanor of the receptionist. It is the carefully crafted comments by a CEO as well as negative buzz by the water cooler or in chat rooms on the Internet.
Brand is expressed through written, audio and visual content.It is interpreted through emotional filters every human being has—where anything can happen.
