What is brand management?

Your brand exemplifies who your company is and what it stands for. It encompasses your company name, logo, products, internal and external messaging, design and any other elements that identify your business and its products and distinguishes them from others in the market. Your brand also takes into account the experiences and relationships that customers have with it.

Brand management, then, means analysing and planning how the public perceives your brand. It falls under the umbrella of marketing and involves activities and techniques that aim to maintain (at a minimum) or increase the value of your brand over time. To develop this strategy, you must have a solid understanding of your company’s vision, the brand – and how it fits into that vision – and your brand’s audience. Cultivating this strong relationship with this audience is vital to effective brand management.

In today’s media-driven and content-heavy environment, successful brand management is about tracking this media buzz – what are people saying about your brand and who are the people saying it? This means not only closely monitoring the media but also analysing and sharing media intelligence both internally and externally to your business.

Why is brand management important?

Effective brand management yields a number of invaluable benefits, such as:

  • stimulating product prices
  • generating loyal and committed customers through brand awareness and positive associations with the brand
  • differentiating your brand in a competitive market
  • creating a positive perception of your company
  • helping employees, customers and other stakeholders better understand your organisation
  • inspiring employee pride, in turn creating a staff of brand ambassadors.
