A Guide To Developing A Successful Brand Architecture

Sustainable Growth

The foundation of any successful branding strategy is the brand architecture, that is, the foundation for all the key components of your brand. Ultimately, a comprehensive brand architecture should align your brand’s personality traits, processes, goals, story, and visual and operational requirements into one unified structure.

Consider brand architecture as a manufacturing facility with different departments, each designed to fulfill a specific task of the overall manufacturing cycle. Once a department completes a task, it moves on to the next department, and so on. This continues until all tasks are completed to create the final product. In order to complete each step and eventually achieve the final goal, the entire cycle must be managed and refined on an ongoing basis.

The brand architecture process can be applied to branding products, services, and even existing companies. Using a holistic marketing and branding approach tailored to you can help your business grow. It took us 25 years to perfect this marketing system that we use for all our clients. Here are the five steps to developing a successful brand architecture.

2) BRAND EXPERIENCE & ENGAGEMENT

As the first step of the brand architecture process, brand Foundation/positioning is designed to realizing a solution to every challenge that you encounter. To achieve this, you will need to pinpoint the exact requirements of both long and short-term goals. Here, you will detail a complete strategy for achieving these goals, including necessary innovations, tools, tactics, technology, and systems.

Key components include developing a brand identity, brand voice, online experience, social media, marketing collaterals, CRM (customer relationship management), and videos.
