Brands are failing to connect on a deeper, more emotional level making the consumers feel the dire need. The Drum’s research of 2017 uncovered facts at different age groups. 78% of people felt brands never connect emotionally. The figure rose to 87% when it came to people over 45 years.
In this digital age, consumers are closer to brands than ever before. Getting a plethora of information about brands is a matter of a few clicks. The outdated decade-old DTC (Direct-to-Customer) approach is no more the way to reach your audience. This means reimagining the value you are delivering to your customers.
Post-pandemic global research by PWC reveals that customers' buying habits are becoming more volatile. Owing to the sudden uncertainties across the globe, the consumer mindset is taking a sharp turn. This calls for rethinking brand management to address the needs.
Misunderstanding consumers’ silence or the absence of negative feedback as a sign of satisfaction can be detrimental. A recent PWC report finds that 1 in 3 customers leave a brand they love after only one bad experience.
Brand marketing influence is highly age-sensitive. Generation Y are extremely savvy towards marketing strategies and can see right through a celebrity endorsement that is not adding any real value to that brand proposition. The Drum’s survey finds that 16% of Gen Z, 11% of Gen Y, and only 1% aged above 55 believe celebrities have an influence on them.
Family and friends have the biggest influence on a customer’s purchase decision. It is a final call for the brands to stop wasting resources on programs that are not really making the mark. Even today, the old-fashioned word of mouth is the king.
The story begins when a girl, sad and anxious, is sitting on a garden bench. The first boy comes to her asking why is she sad? She is silent. The second boy comes with flowers. She doesn’t like it. The third boy comes with a chocolate. She refuses it. The fourth boy cracks a joke to bring a smile to her face. She is annoyed. The fifth boy comes and gives her a hug. She loves it.

Brand awareness is the knowledge your target audience has about your company.

Brand reputation is the perception your target audience has of the character, status, and quality of your business.
External factors such as news, current events, trends have a considerable influence on it. To name a few, influencers, journalists, and social media users affect virtually every narrative.
