Marking the difference without losing identity
A brand identity, regardless of the industry it operates in, is one of its key assets. There may be various ways to define and evaluate it, but there is a general consensus that a brand’s identity must be managed with the utmost care, always weighing the pros and cons of specific actions.
In a rapidly changing world, brands—and, consequently, their communications managers—face the dilemma of either taking distinctive initiatives that capture the public’s attention or, as a result of a poorly planned strategy, facing the loss of their brands’ identity.
This balance is by no means easy to achieve. The solution involves, first, understanding where we want to position our brand and, second, how we want to do so. In communication, as we know, it’s not enough to simply know what we want. The way we achieve these goals will also have a significant influence on what we’re communicating and the impact of that process.
In short, the solution lies in very careful planning of every action taken. In today's climate, a poorly thought-out initiative can ruin a brand's reputation in a way that is practically irreparable.
