We had an amazing time at last week’s inaugural Summit! Highlights from our talk on “Unlocking the Power of Brand Awareness” included:
1. Combine “brand marketing” and “demand marketing” to maximize both short- and long-term sales. You have to plant the orchard (build/grow the brand) AND pick the apples once they’re ripe (capture the resulting demand).
2. In B2B, 95% of customers are out-market at any time. Brand marketing can help prime your audience so that your company comes to mind once a buying situation arises. It’s also proven to help improve activation marketing performance.
3. Balance your investment in brand vs. demand based on your brand’s maturity and market, aiming for a 50/50 approach if possible.
4. CMOs struggling to measure brand health should set high-level goals, align them to measurable KPIs, and track growth with a Brand Awareness scorecard.
April is . Did you know there’s an 85% un/underemployment rate among college graduates with autism? is changing that by recruiting and placing neurodiverse individuals in positions that benefit both them and Fortune 500 employers. Grafik crafted a stunning visual identity and website capturing the new mantra, "See Success at Work."
An unexpected but welcome result of this engagement was an ongoing partnership in which Integrate Advisors has helped bring neurodivergent talent into the Grafik workplace. What started as an intern pilot program has now evolved into a hiring channel for full-time talent. We’re proud of our ongoing partnership with the Integrate team and continue to serve as their creative agency of record.
