About this event:
In this power-packed, one-hour seminar, we’ll equip you, the CPG founder, with the essential tools to navigate the exciting world of branding. We’ll delve into the core principles of brand building, from understanding the fundamental “why” behind a strong brand to crafting a winning strategy on a shoestring budget.
The seminar will cover:
- The Power of Brand: We’ll explore the undeniable impact of branding in the CPG landscape. Learn how a strong brand can differentiate you from the competition, build customer loyalty, and propel your sales.
- Branding on a Budget: Don’t have a marketing windfall? No problem! We’ll provide actionable strategies and creative hacks to develop a compelling brand identity even with limited resources.
- Crafting Your Brand Strategy: This session will guide you through the process of building a basic brand strategy. We’ll cover everything from defining your brand voice and values to identifying your target audience and understanding your competition
- Building Your Brand Creative: With a clear strategy defined, it’s time to get creative. Even if you’re not a talented designer, you can get a running start by exploring the power of Mood Boards to determine an overall creative direction. We’ll walk you through considerations of this step, and dive into what it takes to turn Mood Boards into full-fledged brand identities.
By the end of this seminar, you’ll be armed with the knowledge and practical steps to take your CPG brand from concept to market leader.
