Three Benefits of a Brand


A new product must have practical benefit. If that benefit is due to an invention (means, the customer is getting that benefit for the first time), there is an instant support for the product from people who were experiencing the need for the benefit but unable to satisfy the need.

Campaigns that carry an emotional element that helps consumers identify with the brand leave a deeper impression than those solely focused on practicality.

In addition to a practical benefit and an emotional benefit, consumers are now looking for a societal benefit. They want to know there’s a purpose behind the product. When brands listen to what their consumers are saying, they gain valuable insight to help direct their marketing strategies. In this way, consumers actually help shape the brand or co-create the brand
