No year starts without its challenges and just like our summer weather being unpredictable so too is the world we live in. Yet amongst the uncertainty, there is one constant, the resilience of strong and trusted brands. In times of ambiguity, we naturally gravitate towards familiarity, we lean into the brands we know and trust. But what sets these brands apart from the rest?
They understand the power and value of marketing and visual communication, they recognise the importance of maintaining a consistent and professional approach, despite any obstacles they face. By staying steadfast in their marketing approach, they reinforce the foundation of their brand, ensuring it remains strong and resilient.
While many organisations may see marketing as an optional expense, this is often a heightened view during times of increased operational expenses, these brands understand its intrinsic value. After all, why would you stop the very stream of income that marketing helps sustain? Instead, they prioritise marketing and use it as a balancing tool for rising costs to continue to maintain their competitive edge.
Like unpredictable weather, strong brands can shelter the storm, strong brands provide stability and assurance through uncertainty. Minimising or even worse, neglecting your brand’s presence leaves it vulnerable to fatigue and inauthenticity. We are creatures of habit, we instinctively seek out the familiar, making it crucial to cultivate a brand that resonates.
Effective design doesn’t have to break the bank. With strategic thinking and the right designers, brands can navigate any challenge that comes their way, emerging stronger and more resilient than before. Key word familiar!!
So when you are looking at your budget, rainy days or sunshine…how does your approach to marketing change?
