Branding for impact
Build your impact brand from scratch.
Develop your brand purpose with strong value and story to build your impact in the world with Wendy Gosnell.
Course overview
Develop your brand purpose
Brand purpose is changing everything. It's changing business strategy, it's changing the employee experience and it's changing how we build brands. In this section we review the importance of taking on a planet problem that you and your team can solve together. It doesn't have to be big, it just has to be something that you are motivated to commit to overtime.
Identify your brand values
As purpose defines why you do what you do, your brand values define how you do it. Brand values are like your inside-out branding. They bring your brand to life in your everyday practices with consumers, supply chains and employees. They signal who you are and why your audiences should connect and build a relationship with you. In this section we help you define the values of your brand.
Craft your brand story
Your brand story is your greatest asset. It is your narrative. It defines who you are talking to, what their needs are and how you will uniquely address them in a credible way. It's how you will make your brand exciting and relevant to your audience. You will be telling this story over and over so we craft it strategically, step-by-step using proven industry brand building models.
Map your Earth Ambition
Alongside your brand story, we will develop your Earth Ambitions. These are the sustainable development goals your brand chooses to address. We will show you how to map them out so they can be measured, credentialed and verified. Your Earth Ambitions may become an important part of your brand story so the work we do here helps clarify how to speak about them. We will also address the communities your brand can influence, or will be influenced by, to make things happen.
Communicate your impact
At this last step, we will develop your customer journey to define the channels and campaigns best suited for your brand. This step is crucial for planning your communication investment and defining the creative assets you will develop. Brand building is strategy so we end with your brand compass, the tool you will use for all future decision making.
