Mastering Reddit for Brand Awareness & Reputation Management

First, think of how vast the internet is, and how impossible it is to reach every crack, corner, and crevice. Now, imagine a place where millions of people endlessly sift through this vastness, promoting what’s worthy of the front page and removing what’s rubbish. That’s Reddit. If you’ve spent only a few minutes redditting, you may be thinking it’s a place for cute cats and ridiculous memes… However, Reddit is also a place for the president, for customer support, and just about anything else you can imagine.

0.146 Seconds: The Power of First Impressions on Your Brand

It takes only 0.146 seconds to love your brand, or at least it should. That’s how long it takes for someone to form a first impression of your brand. And if you’re not making an emotional connection with your audience in that fraction of a second, you’re missing out on a huge opportunity to win their hearts and minds. But here’s the thing: visuals aren’t always the best way to make that emotional connection. In fact, when it comes to hitting emotions quickly, audio can often be more effective than visuals. That’s because sound has a direct line to our emotions, bypassing our logical brains and going straight to our hearts. Music to Inspire Music is a powerful tool for inspiring emotions. It has the ability to transport us to different places, evoke feelings of nostalgia, and ignit...

How to Use AR in Brand Experiences

AR (Augmented Reality) continues to build as one of the most exciting technology innovations to appear in recent years.

In addition, since the pandemic of 2020, companies no longer have the same in-person opportunities available to create meaningful relationships with customers.

Compelling Brand Storytelling for Marketers

Compelling Brand Storytelling for Marketers

In recent years, it's become fashionable for marketers to describe themselves as "storytellers" for their brand. But many brand narratives are deadly dull. That's because they lack the one element that every good writer uses: conflict. Every great story, whether a novel, play, film, or TV series, is based on a dramatic conflict—a protagonist's struggle to get what he or she wants in the face of seemingly insurmountable obstacles. That tension is what gets us interested and keeps us hooked: We want to know whether our hero will succeed or fail. Without that element of jeopardy, a story can be flat, predictable, boring. Sadly, much of branded content and brand storytelling is all of those things. The characters and setting are nice, lest they reflect badly on the organization. Wonderful thin...

Brand Positioning and Competitors’ Positioning

When was the last time you did an assessment of how your competitors are positioned relative to your product or company? If you haven't done a competitor positioning assessment recently, you're not alone. It's an element of competitive analysis that is often overlooked. "Too many companies embark on marketing and advertising as if the competitor's position did not exist. They advertise their products in a vacuum and are disappointed when their messages fail to get through," observe Al Ries and Jack Trout in their marketing classic Positioning: The Battle for your Mind.

Trust, and building effective brand relationships, is becoming a bigger focus amid shifting attitudes to key social issues, and a rising reliance on eCommerce for shopping. On the former, according to Edelman's 2020 Trust Barometer report, less than half of people now trust that their institutions will do what's right, with growing skepticism around financial motivations and other influential factors that can change government and regularity decisions. On the latter, as reliance on eCommerce grows, consumers need to know that they're going to get what they pay for online, and that comes down to br...
