EVEN
YOURS.
But first,




you have to master the FIVE   DISCIPLINES OF BRAND-BUILDING .




NEUTRONLLC.COM
DISCIPLINE 1: DIFFERENTIATE




NEUTRONLLC.COM
NEUTRONLLC.COM
WE’RE HARDWIRED TO NOTICE ONLY WHAT’S DIFFERENT.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
SOLUTION:




BE DIFFERENT.

NEUTRONLLC.COM
FEATURES                 BENEFITS          EXPERIENCE        IDENTIFICATION
“What it is”           “What it does”     “What you feel”    “Who you are”

                 Marketing today is about creating tribes.

The three most important words in differentiating your brand:
1   FOCUS




NEUTRONLLC.COM
2
                     FOCUS


NEUTRONLLC.COM
3
                     FOCUS

NEUTRONLLC.COM
IS THIS HOW YOUR CUSTOMERS SEE YOU?




NEUTRONLLC.COM
THE FOCUS TEST:




          1   Who are you?

          2   What do you do?

          3   Why does it matter?




NEUTRONLLC.COM
Unless you have compelling answers to these questions,

                 you need more focus.



NEUTRONLLC.COM
NEUTRONLLC.COM




The most common reason for loss of focus
is ILL-CONSIDERED BRAND EXTENSIONS.
EXAMPLE:




                 FOCUSED   PORSCHE = SPORTS CARS


          UNFOCUSED        PORSCHE = SPORTS CARS + SUVS

IN THE 1990s,




CREATIVE COLLABORATION SPREAD TO BRAND-BUILDING.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
EXAMPLE:

The Netscape brand was built
on the Hollywood model.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
MYTH:




                 Wide experience
                 leads to deep insights.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
FACT:

                 Deep insights come
                 from deep experience.



NEUTRONLLC.COM
NEUTRONLLC.COM
NEUTRONLLC.COM
WHY?




NEUTRONLLC.COM
Because
                                the mathematics of collaboration
                 is nothing less than



                           MAGIC.


NEUTRONLLC.COM
DISCIPLINE 3: INNOVATE




NEUTRONLLC.COM
Execution—
                 not strategy—is where the rubber meets the road.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
CREATIVITY IS WHAT GIVES BRANDS THEIR TRACTION IN THE MARKETPLACE.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
Why do companies have so much trouble with creativity?




Because creativity is right-brained,
                            and strategy is left-brained.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
A       B      C     D




                     STRATEGIC THINKING




NEUTRONLLC.COM
V                   Z



                         D




                              Q




                     CREATIVE THINKING




NEUTRONLLC.COM
NEUTRONLLC.COM
THE REASON THE BEATLES WERE WILDLY SUCCESSFUL
    IS BECAUSE “THEY NEVER DID THE SAME THING ONCE.”




NEUTRONLLC.COM
QUESTION:




             How do you know when an idea is innovative?




NEUTRONLLC.COM
ANSWER:                                   NEUTRONLLC.COM




          WHEN IT SCARES THE HELL OUT OF EVERYBODY.
TOO PREDICTABLE     =   NO SURPRISE

                 NO SURPRISE   =   NOTHING NEW

                 NOTHING NEW   =   NO VALUE




NEUTRONLLC.COM
To begin with,

the brand needs a         stand-out name.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
The seven criteria of a stand-out name:

                 1 DISTINCTIVENESS


                 2 BREVITY


                 3 APPROPRIATENESS


                 4 EASY SPELLING AND PRONUNCIATION


                 5 LIKABILITY


                 6 EXTENDABILITY


NEUTRONLLC.COM   7 PROTECTABILITY
A GREAT          NAME   deserves GREAT   GRAPHICS .




NEUTRONLLC.COM
NEWS             LOGOS ARE DEAD. LONG LIVE ICONS AND AVATARS!




FLASH!
NEUTRONLLC.COM
An ICON is a name and visual symbol
                 that suggests a market position.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
EXAMPLE:




                 CBS. The network for “eye-popping” television.



NEUTRONLLC.COM
An AVATAR is a brand icon that
                 can move, change, and operate
                 freely in various media.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
EXAMPLE:




CINGULAR : The “self-expression” cellular service.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
For products that sell at retail,




the package
NEUTRONLLC.COM   is often the best and last chance to make a sale.
The hardest-working packages follow
a natural reading sequence.

                 THE SHOPPER :

                 1   Notices the package

                 2   Asks “What is it?”

                 3   Wonders “Why should I care?”

                 4   Wants to be persuaded

                 5   Needs proof


NEUTRONLLC.COM
By presenting information
to match this sequence,
a package can sell the
product more effectively.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
If you communicate with your customers
ONLINE , your website needs to follow
a SIMILAR reading sequence, one that
supplies users with ONLY the information
they need, instead of trying to squeeze
EVERYTHING onto the home page
LIKE THIS and making your users do
ALL the work, which will undoubtedly
cause them to LEAVE, when all you
really have to do is ask yourself this
SIMPLE QUESTION :                 NEUTRONLLC.COM
NEUTRONLLC.COM




Does our website look




fat                     in this dress?
Too many websites are bloated with irrelevant information.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
WHY?




NEUTRONLLC.COM
1 TURFISMO
                  (Every department wants to be on the home page)




NEUTRONLLC.COM
2 FEATURITIS
                  (Inexperienced communicators believe more is better)




NEUTRONLLC.COM
3 TECHNOPHOBIA
                  (Experienced communicators resist new media)




NEUTRONLLC.COM
QUIZ:
                 Which of these sites looks easier to use?




NEUTRONLLC.COM
NEUTRONLLC.COM
NEUTRONLLC.COM
DISCIPLINE 4: VALIDATE




NEUTRONLLC.COM
VALIDATION means bringing the
                 audience into the creative process.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
SENDER
                  SENDER        MESSAGE
                                MESSAGE       RECEIVER
                                              RECEIVER




             THE OLD COMMUNICATION MODEL WAS A MONOLOGUE.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
SENDER
                    SENDER         MESSAGE
                                   MESSAGE        RECEIVER
                                                  RECEIVER




                 THE NEW COMMUNICATION MODEL IS A DIALOGUE.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
QUESTION:




                 How can you test your most creative ideas
                 BEFORE they get to market?




NEUTRONLLC.COM
HINT:            NEUTRONLLC.COM




Not with large
quantitative studies
or focus groups.
QUANTITATIVE STUDIES BURY THE PROBLEM IN HEAPS OF UNHELPFUL DATA.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
FOCUS GROUPS WERE INVENTED TO FOCUS
                  THE RESEARCH, NOT BE THE RESEARCH.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
THE BEST TESTS ARE


CHEAP,
    QUICK,       AND
                       DIRTY.
NEUTRONLLC.COM
Better a rough answer to the right question
than a detailed answer to the wrong question.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
NEUTRONLLC.COM
NEUTRONLLC.COM




If the names and graphics of two trademarks are
better when swapped, then neither is optimal.
EXISTING TRADEMARKS




NEUTRONLLC.COM
WITH NAMES SWAPPED




NEUTRONLLC.COM
CHEAP-QUICK-DIRTY TEST 2:


           The HAND TEST is a proof for a distinctive voice.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
If you can’t tell who’s talking when the trademark
                 is covered, then the brand’s voice is not distinctive.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
NEUTRONLLC.COM
CHEAP-QUICK-DIRTY TEST 3:


                 The FIELD TEST is a proof for any concept
                         that can be prototyped.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
If your audience can’t verbalize your concept,
                 you’ve failed to communicate it.


NEUTRONLLC.COM
SHOPPERS CHARACTERIZED
                      THE PACKAGE CONCEPT
                 ON THE MIDDLE-RIGHT SHELF
                        AS “A FASTER PENCIL.”



                                      BINGO.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
Field tests measure five things:




                   1 DISTINCTIVENESS


                    2 RELEVANCE


                    3 MEMORABILITY


                   4 EXTENDABILITY


                    5 DEPTH OF MEANING



NEUTRONLLC.COM
TESTING MIGHT HAVE SAVED SOME OF THESE COMPANIES FROM THE GREAT SWOOSH EPIDEMIC.
HAS THE GLOBE BECOME THE NEW SWOOSH?




NEUTRONLLC.COM
DISCIPLINE 5: CULTIVATE




NEUTRONLLC.COM
Business is a process, not an entity.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
A living brand is a pattern of behavior,
not a stylistic veneer.


NEUTRONLLC.COM
Brands are like people.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
C.                     D.                      E.




    IF PEOPLE CAN CHANGE THEIR CLOTHES WITHOUT CHANGING THEIR CHARACTERS…




NEUTRONLLC.COM
WHY CAN’T BRANDS?




NEUTRONLLC.COM
NEUTRONLLC.COM
NEUTRONLLC.COM
IF A BRAND LOOKS LIKE A DUCK AND SWIMS
                    LIKE A DOG, PEOPLE WILL DISTRUST IT.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
So let’s say you’ve




                 DIFFERENTIATED,
                 COLLABORATED,
                 INNOVATED,
                 AND VALIDATED.

                 YOU’VE ADDED THE LEFT BRAIN TO THE RIGHT BRAIN.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
NEUTRONLLC.COM

                 YOU’VE USED TESTING TO BANISH THE FEAR OF STUPID.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
Your brand is now NUMBER ONE in its category.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
What’s your next move?




NEUTRONLLC.COM
PASS OUT THE COMPASSES.




NEUTRONLLC.COM

the stronger its management needs to be.




NEUTRONLLC.COM
What your company needs is a CBO,
or CHIEF BRANDING OFFICER .




NEUTRONLLC.COM
THE CBO FORMS A HUMAN BRIDGE BETWEEN LOGIC AND MAGIC, STRATEGY AND DESIGN.
