10 Five (5) Step Process: Branding Manufacturers: From Inside/Outside 1. Internal brand discovery (Internal Discovery and Validation) a. Who you are What you do How you do it Why you do it. b. Problems, Promises and Proofs 2. External brand assessment (External Discovery and Validation) a. VOC Survey b. Competitor Analysis c. Market Research 3. Creating distinctive brand statements (Define the "who," the "how" and the "why." Not the "what ) a. Value Proposition b. Marketing Messaging Not to be confused with mission or purpose statements. Brand statements separate you from your competitors and make you a leader in your category. 4. Internal brand adoption (Develop the strategy for getting people to engage with the Brand) Once the brand is defined, strategies must be created to ensure everyone within the organization buys into the brand, believes in the brand, lives the brand and delivers brand expectations throughout all touchpoints. The internal adoption must be a success before the new brand can be promoted externally through marketing and public relations. 5. Operationalize the brand (Development & Deployment, Implementation Brand Awareness) Marketing & sales communications plans are developed in this stage to promote the new/enhanced brand to customers, vendors, channel partners, the supply chain community and other business partners.
