A Name is Not a Brand

A brand is more than a logo or color scheme. It’s more than a tagline, slogan, or marketing campaign. And it’s much more than any advertising campaign, single product or graphics design feature. A brand is a promise to the consumer that they can count on you to deliver EVERY time on that promise. Join Eric Hultgren, director of brand strategy + social media for MLive, as he talks about how you move from your name to a brand and deliver on that promise.

Guest Lecture at U of M

How do you start a story? What makes it connect? Have you ever been to a party where there is that ONE person who everyone is gathered around and he or she is holding court – telling stories? 

 

What if your brand could do that? 

 

What if it could do that at scale? 

 

The internet is full of brands taking advantage of a world where ads don’t work as well or maybe at all, and that audience demands more from you. They want you to tell them a story but not about you, about them. Grab a seat – it’s time for a story about how to build a story.
