- Make point about commodity vs. relationship Your company’s brand doesn’t equal your logo or tagline. Nor does it equate to the words and images on your Web site. Unless you're in the image business like BankAmerica, Geico, Coke or Nike and happen to have tens of millions to spend on marketing, then your brand is the sum total of the hundreds or perhaps thousands of touchpoints you have with your customers—and their members--each year.
- Strengthen Your Market Presence with Inside-Out Branding Branding is the most misunderstood term in marketing, and perhaps in all of corporate America. A company’s brand doesn’t equate to or derive from its logo or tagline, or even its Web site or marketing budget. All of those are tactics and channels you can use to reflect and reinforce your brand to the marketplace. Explore the concept of inside-out branding, which is the theory that an organization’s brand is a product of the activities inside your organization, and how your members experience and perceive your credit union.

- Member centric focus of your CU; everything adds up to member experience which = brand, either directly (user friendly statement) or indirectly (hassle free parking) It’s what you do not what you tell people. Show me don’t tell me. Can’t change experience with logo, tagline or campaign. But those things can reinforce a good experience and reflect it to the target audience Internal brand building (experiential) external brand building: promotional If those touchpoints aren't working optimally--or if your customers don't perceive so--why would you spend even a dollar on advertising, PR or lead generation? Inside-Out Branding turns the old "advertising first" branding model into a more practical approach for isolating, prioritizing and optimizing the most important touch points--from your customers's perspective. The result? Gain a firm grasp on your customers requirements and their perception of how you stack up. And you won't find yourself trying to use your marketing budget to solve a more basic challenge.
