How much is your brand contributing to your bottom line?

Customers will pay back the RIGHT investments that you make to your brand. Think of branding investments as investments in your customers, not in brand or media or creative or brand communication stuff. Customers are the only way of returning those investments.

Therefore, when working on brand strategy, your brand should:

• be helping you gain more customers.
• be getting current customers to buy more or use more or pay more.
• be solidifying future sales from current customers.
• help you cross sell and up sell new products and services to existing customers.

If your brand is not currently making you money, you have a big problem. If you have a branding problem then you have a reputation problem. Customers need to believe in you and if they don’t believe in your brand then your reputation is in jeopardy.
