Our brand strategy process will help you define your brand and map out a strategic plan for the best possible future for your brand.

Does your brand have unrealized potential? Here are five questions you need to be able to answer about your brand:

Can you describe your brand in seven seconds in a way that motivates consumers to engage and in a space that is own-able for your brand?
Are you making the right investments that will create a market impact for your brand, and lead to a performance result for your business?
Does everyone on your team know their role and know how they contribute to building a successful brand?
Does your marketing execution establish your desired brand positioning and move customers to purchase?
Are you investing in your people to ensure they make smarter decisions and produce exceptional work that drives business growth?

If you cannot answer these five questions, your team will be confused.

Your brand investments will be scattered and won’t pay back. You will see inconsistent execution in the market. The consumer will not know how to define your brand. And, you won’t grow! It is time to make decisions.

Our workshops use tools to get you thinking differently. My role is to push you and listen so that when you say THE answer, I will be able to pick it up and play it back to you. Together, we will define your brand positioning statement, select the right strategic investments for your brand, and build a strategic plan that everyone on the team can follow.

We ensure that your marketing execution builds your brand reputation in the market and moves customers along their purchase journey. When you invest in your team better, you will see them make smarter decisions and produce exceptional work that drives business growth.

Can you describe your brand in seven seconds in a way that motivates consumers and in a space that own-able for your brand?

Everyone should know what your brand stands for. Every employee, every partner, and every customer should all use the same words.

At Beloved Brands, we will help you define your brand to set you up to win in the marketplace. To start, we define your ideal consumer, and work with you to build a brand positioning that is balanced with functional and emotional benefits.

We summarize your brand by creating a brand idea that you can stand behind and steers everyone who works behind the scenes of the brand.

We leave you with the brand positioning elements of a brand book. Everyone who works on the brand must know how to describe your brand in 7 seconds, 60 seconds, or 30 minutes.

Are you making the right investments and does everyone on your team know their role?

A strategic plan should force smart focused decisions to help organize, steer, and inspire your team towards a brighter future of higher growth.

At Beloved Brands, we use our Strategic ToolBox questions to open up your team’s thinking and help frame the key issues facing your brand.

We work with you to build each element of a strategic plan: vision, purpose, values, key issues, strategies, and tactics.

We leave you with a one-page strategic plan and a formal presentation. Everyone who works on your brand will know their specific role and see a list of projects they need to complete.

Does your marketing execution establish your desired brand reputation and move customers to purchase?

Your marketing execution must consistently deliver your brand positioning through marketing communications, product innovation, sales, retail, and an ideal customer experience. And, every effort needs to move customers to purchase.

At Beloved Brands, we start with a creative brief that will focus any agency on developing smart, creative advertising and media.

With the sales team, we find programs that work at the purchase moment through retail channels, packaging, e-commerce, direct selling, customer service, and merchandising.

We create an innovation process, brainstorm new ideas you can test and assess, and build and execute a launch program.

At every step, we advise you on the best path forward.

"Graham’s experience gives his work credibility as a brand strategy consultant. His ability to pare complex problems down to simple-to-understand concepts is his greatest strength. Marketing is an imprecise and confusing science.

Piers Buck

CEO of Little Freddie

"Graham Robertson asks simple questions that you never realized you don’t have one answer to as a team. The most powerful question he asked us was “who is your best customer.” It was like all the air had been sucked out of the room and he allowed the dramatic pause to linger. When people began to attempt to answer we realized we weren’t aligned. At that moment we saw the opportunity to move from a product-centric organization to one that is more customer focused. I highly recommend Graham's brand strategy consulting services to any organization looking to move their brand forward."
