subject: Corporate Executive Branding A New Approach [print this page] ASG provides innovative solutions for executives through our unique branding process. A brand takes a concentrated effort to develop and does not establish itself overnight. We are the suppliers of the critical component necessary for this differentiation which ultimately elicits the emotional decision making process to make the consumer/buyer react.
A good brand name is gold in todays economy. Corporations rely heavily on their reputation. Branding is particularly important in the current economy. The recent economic climate and size of mega corporations make corporate executive branding a necessity, as corporations grow and expand into new markets, the consumer experiences a disconnect as they are transformed into just one, out of a million customers the particular business services.
Corporate Executive branding offers the opportunity to humanize the corporation by offering up one if its own to the public to gain acceptance and increased support for the business overall activities.
The Goal of Corporate Executive Branding
The ultimate goal of branding is to create identification between the executive and the brand. The brand builds a deeply loyal relationship between the executive and the product or service his organization sells. Brands are built on prior performance and reputation. Branding requires an active, ongoing effort to guide and control the markets perception of the brand.
Branding encourages the consumer to draw conclusions about the company or product without making an informed decision. Typically, the consumer does not have enough information or the knowledge to understand the claims of a brand. For example, is a Volvo really safer than a Volkswagen? Branding provides the consumer with a short cut around experiential proof.
