4 Sneaky Ways To Build Brand Awareness.
Ever wondered why you say “Kleenex” instead of tissue or “Coke” instead of cola? These brands have achieved the ultimate level of brand awareness, known as proprietary eponyms. Here are four sneaky ways to help your brand get there:
- Find Your Brand Voice
Define a clear brand voice that reflects your mission and values. This will guide all your communication, from your website to social media and ads. Collaborate with your marketing, sales, and product teams to ensure your messaging resonates with your target audience.
2. Create and Improve Your Website
Your website is the face of your business. Ensure its mobile-friendly, includes analytics for tracking visitor behaviour, and has email submission forms to build a mailing list. These forms help you gather emails for future marketing and personalized customer outreach.
3. Launch Email Campaigns
Use the emails collected from your website to start campaigns. Start with transactional emails like welcome notes and purchase confirmations. Gradually, move to promotional campaigns to increase engagement and drive sales.
4. Introduce a Referral Program
Encourage your customers to refer others by offering them rewards. Dropbox’s referral program, which offered users extra storage space, is a prime example of how this strategy can significantly boost sign-ups and drive growth.
