A brand is not a logo or a name, but rather what it means to the customer and what he associates with it. It conveys values and benefits and fulfills rational as well as emotional needs. In short, a brand is the solution to a problem its user has.
In our positioning workshops, we work together to determine and clarify the nature of your brand. In close exchange we develop a brand platform that becomes the foundation for all of your brand communication. The goal is to convey the individual brand promise consistently across all company divisions and customer contact points.
1. What distinguishes me?
2. What does the customer want?
3. How can I inspire?
Planatol is the best example for what an accurate analysis of the branding process can do: After the personal workshop, it quickly became clear what the company’s core was: the people themselves. They are at the heart of Planatol. Dedicated and engaged, they have contributed to the successful company history. Planatol maintains a respectful and trusting corporate culture that offers and motivates creativity. This focus on human values is very unusual in the adhesives industry, but it benefits the business: it encourages innovation that ultimately benefits the customer.
This is where we aimed to create the greatest possible differentiation from the competition and maximum customer relevance.
After analysing the competition, the market environment and the current corporate performance, we develop the mission statement of the company together with your management and then continue to outline the significance as well as the objectives of the individual company divisions. The mission statement is an integral part of the brand platform, which in turn aggregates the positioning and of which brand image and tonality of communication are derived.
