Key Takeaways

  • Brands should refresh and reposition to be sure they’re resonating with their buying groups. Buyer needs and wants change over time, and brands need to be flexible and evolve to meet those changing demands. Brand and demand go together.
  • Build up a backlog of customers who are willing to help your brand. Customer case studies provide endless value and opportunity for businesses to market their brand. An investigative approach will lend more answers to the questions brands really want to know from their customers.
  • Teams must be aligned to experience the greatest success. Get as granular as possible cross-functionally so everyone sees the same vision and is on the same page.

Quotes

“ It goes back to, is that asset distinctive? Right? If you want them to think about a certain series, like for us, if we wanted to think about or have marketers think about a certain series different than the IT team or the master data team, you know, how do we make that distinctive so when a marketer sees it's not kind of blending in with some of the other stuff that we might be doing that speaks to a different audience.” –TJ Waldorf, CMO, 1WorldSync
