BRAND POSITIONING
I love brands…. obsessed with them, actually. There’s nothing I love more than seeing all the visual, written and intangible elements of a brand come together to communicate a cohesive and compelling proposition.
Successful brands aren’t just built with a cool logo, fancy fonts and a consistent colour palette - although I definitely have a lot of fun playing in this space!
To truly drive brand awareness and elevate your image and reputation in the market, you need to clearly articulate to your customers what sets your brand apart from the rest.
Having a strong brand positioning strategy in place is fundamental in shaping, informing and inspiring every aspect of your company’s communication strategy - both internal and external.
HOW I CAN HELP
Whether you’re launching a new business or wanting to refresh an existing one, I can help you develop a clear understanding of your brand’s vision, its unique personality and the core values that underpin how your business operates.
I will work with you (and your team) to develop a brand positioning framework that outlines very clearly all the elements that you want associated with your brand, reputation and experience. This is invaluable for ensuring your brand image and distinct personality is consistently reflected in every piece of communication that you execute.
During my 20-year career in marketing and communications, I’ve worked on branding initiatives for major international firms, as well as large Australian companies, small businesses, and start-ups. Everything from rolling out new global brand positioning into local markets, to refreshing existing company branding, right through to building a brand image and strategy from the ground up.
If you’re looking for an experienced and passionate brand practitioner, you’ve come to the right place. Drop me a line, I’d love to chat.

WHY YOU NEED BRAND POSITIONING
Why should your customer buy from you and not your competition?
What makes your business different?
Are you clearly communicating the key attributes that make you unique?
Brand positioning aims to answer the above questions by building a compelling message around your specific expertise, helping you to effectively target the audience who is looking for your product or service. It becomes the driving force that informs all your marketing and communication initiatives, and it provides clear direction to your team on why your business exists and exactly what it is striving to achieve.
"Branding is what people say about you when you're not in the room." Jefferey Bezos
