Brand Truth

We have outgrown how we describe ourselves. I listen across your business, gather the evidence, and find the few truths that are specific, durable and yours. Then we turn them into positioning and a story everyone can tell the same way.

For established businesses at a turning point, and the leaders who run them

Includes

  • Brand positioning
  • Brand story and narrative
  • Messaging framework
  • Mission, vision and values
  • Leadership brand workshop

Why it matters

Many companies become operationally excellent long before they become clear about who they are. The founder, the next generation, the team and the customers each describe a different company.

A new logo will not fix that. Agreement will. And agreement starts with evidence, not adjectives.

What you get

Listening

Confidential conversations across leadership, team, customers and partners.

Evidence

A record of the real stories, quotes and decisions behind the brand.

The surviving truths

Each one passed through the proof test and the rival test.

Positioning

Where you stand, and why it is yours and not a rival's.

Narrative and messages

What to say, to whom and in what order.

A leadership workshop

Where your leaders test the truths and make them their own.

How it works

  1. Listen widelyConversations across every level, in confidence.
  2. Trace the patternsThe stories, words and choices that keep repeating.
  3. Test every claimSpecific, evidenced, shared, durable, useful, and yours.
  4. Agree and shapeLeaders adopt the truths, then we build the story.

What changes

  • Your people describe the same company in the same words.
  • Claims you can prove when a buyer, banker or investor asks.
  • A brief anyone can work from.

Questions

How long does it take?

Usually three to five weeks, depending on how many people we need to hear from.

Why not just run a workshop?

Workshops ask leaders to invent values. This starts with evidence from across the business, then uses a workshop to test and adopt what survives.

What if we need more than a sprint?

A larger engagement adds a full identity system and trained internal owners, through Story and Design and Brand Capability.
