WHAT'S THE POINT OF A
Brand Strategy Taster Workshop:
Every B Corp needs a point, a sharp definition of its purpose that will stick in people's minds. The biggest brand challenge with all progressive traders and B Corps is to stay true to their purpose but to present that purpose in a way that is:
Relevant to customers
Understandable to the brand team
Differentiating from the competition
Not always easy, especially when the messaging can be complex, and resources to drive that messaging are scarce. All the more reason to be 100% sure that how the brand is expressed, delivered, and experienced is 100% right.
By signing up to this complimentary 2 hour brand strategy taster workshop B Corps and progressive traders and will:
Understand the role brand strategy can play in maximising resources
Use the different elements of a brand strategy to create a sharp focus for the organisation
Uncover the (often) hidden advantage B Corps have over conventional businesses.
Use the Brand Arrow
framework to transform complexity into relevant
benefit-led messaging.
Through case studies, learn from the pioneers of B Corps in the US, the UK, and in between!
Be able to answer the question, what’s the point of a B Corp and why should customers care?
The 2 hour online workshop will be a mix of a presentation, case studies, group discussion, and interactive exercises, and as well as equipping delegates with key tools, will be stimulating and fun!
