What could be happening
- The story is too broad or no longer reflects the business.
- Visuals, language and pricing presentation create conflicting expectations.
- The customer experience does not support the promise.
WORKMATES · PROBLEM & SOLUTION
Align your brand with the value you deliver
A polished identity can still communicate the wrong value or attract the wrong expectations. Branding needs to reflect who the offer is for and why they would choose it.
PRACTICAL IMPROVEMENTS
What you can change
- Define the customer, the value they seek and the reasons they should consider your business.
- Make your positioning and offer consistent across the website, profiles and proposals.
- Use relevant examples and accurate evidence to support the impression you want to create.
- Review customer questions and sales feedback to check whether the message is being understood.
