Step 1 - Be Human 💞 More and more, consumers want to connect with the companies they buy from. They want to see the human side of the company. They don’t want to buy from nameless corporations. Step 2 - Be Present 🙋🏻♀️ Future proof your brand. If you aren’t online, you don’t exist. The evidence is in: more money is spent now on digital advertising than on traditional media advertising. 17 million Australians are active on Facebook, 10 million are on Instagram, 9 million are on LinkedIn and 15 million visit YouTube every month. You simply must be publishing content across multiple platforms or you don't exist. People have an instinct for story and naturally are looking for what is relevant to their life. That's why your messaging and brand is critical to attracting the right audience and customer. Unlike advertising, which is about generating consumer purchase intent by highlighting features and benefits, a brand story is about generating a broad spectrum of emotions with the intent of creating a bond between the consumer and the company. To compete and stand out in this very saturated digital space, you cannot afford to not get this right. We can tell your story better. Step 3 - Be Visible 👀 Remaining visible is key. The best way to do this is to routinely publish quality content. But you should also cultivate relationships with brand ambassadors who will give you valuable word-of-mouth advertising. Additionally, you should identify your best performing social media platforms and put extra effort into standing out on those.
