Keeping Your Brand Alive While On-Hold
Have you ever called a business, been put On-Hold, and listened to horrible sounds? Too often a business will hook up a radio in their phone room not realizing that all of the electrical energy in that phone room will affect their radio. The only people that are affected are those people that call into your business, your clients, or your potential clients. Why don’t you give them a well-thought-out presentation of your company while keeping your brand alive??
Branding demands commitment; commitment to continual re-invention; striking chords with people to stir their emotions; and commitment to imagination. It is easy to be cynical about such things, but much harder to be successful. The keys to brand success are self-definition, transparency, authenticity, and accountability. Your brand is a story unfolding across all customer touchpoints. The key is, no matter what story you tell, make your buyer the hero
