One of the most impactful strategies a brand can adopt is not merely to see their customers as transactions but as the heroes of their story. Just take a leaf out of Nike's playbook. Nike doesn't just sell shoes; they celebrate athletes. From budding talents on local playgrounds to legends on global stages, Nike recognizes and uplifts their journeys, struggles, and triumphs. This isn’t just smart marketing; it's a brand philosophy. Here's why adopting a similar strategy is golden for businesses: Emotional Connection: Celebrating your customers deepens their emotional ties to your brand. It’s no longer just about products; it's about their personal stories and successes. Authenticity: People crave genuine interactions and stories. By celebrating real customers and their experiences, you’re grounding your brand in authenticity. Word-of-Mouth: A celebrated customer becomes a brand ambassador. They’ll naturally share their experiences and love for your brand, creating organic word-of-mouth marketing. Loyalty: Customers are more likely to return to brands that value and appreciate them. It’s not just about the first sale, but the repeated engagements over time. Your products might be the tools, but it’s your customers who shine when they use them. Celebrate them, uplift them, and weave their stories into the fabric of your brand narrative. Because when customers feel seen, valued, and celebrated, they don't just buy; they belong. #CustomerFirst #NikeInspired

It's so easy to get distracted by big, shiny brands. Brands that have been around for decades. They do it well, so we should be like them. "We will be the Nike of X." "We will be the Apple of Y." No, no, no 😱 There is already a Nike and Apple. Being like them means you are stripping away what makes you different and replacing it with what you think people want: more of the same. So please take this as your sign to not be like anyone else. The world has enough brands that are all the same. Being different means being authentic, being real, being new. Being different means it's easier to grow market share, easier to own your space, and easier to face problems. I love the big brands as much as the next person, but your brand isn't on their timeline, so it shouldn't be the same.

I recently came across a compelling video on the concept of a "Unique Selling Proposition," and its transformative potential for branding, akin to industry giants like Apple, Nike, and Domino's Pizza. Intrigued, I delved deeper into the distinctive USPs that underpin these iconic names. For Apple, it's about offering "The ultimate gateway to the internet." Domino's promises "Fresh, piping-hot pizza at your doorstep in 30 minutes or less—guaranteed," while Nike's indelible motto urges us to "Just do it." What unites these powerhouse brands is their resolute focus on benefits rather than features. A potent Unique Selling Proposition hinges on what a product or service can deliver to its clientele, not simply what it comprises. It's about articulating what sets it apart from the competition, fortified by tangible proof. Consider Nike's strategic alignment with high-achieving athletes. This not only reaffirms their narrative but shifts the spotlight from products to feats, accolades, and triumphs—the tangible benefits. This synergy has birthed exclusive collaborations, resulting in personalized designs and accessories. It's created a thriving community where enthusiasts and aspiring athletes seamlessly converge. And let's not overlook credibility—Nike's unwavering commitment to quality and innovation, substantiating their claims with years of tangible results. I trust you've gleaned valuable insights from this discourse. Until our next rendezvous. These are my 2 Cents.

When it comes to brand protection, the term is often misunderstood for protecting the advertising context, in which a brand places its ads in. In an editorial society, where brands must learn to act like media companies publishing their own content, brand protection entails much more. It describes the setup of an editorial brand organization, which systematically scrutinizes its publishing contents for the cultural and legal context of its target audiences. This does not call for corporate censorship, but for a professional editorial brand organization, which actively manages its "publishing" risks just like any media company does. My colleagues Michael Remke, Bernadette Mittermeier, Roman Heflik, Eva Kitsios (geb. Bernhard), João Telmo at LOOPING ONE have condensed their experiences with managing global brand protection processes for brands such as BMW Group and Mercedes-Benz AG in a #mustread white-paper.
Remember the Adidas and Kanye West fiasco? 🤔 After a series of racist remarks by the U.S. rapper induced public outrage, the brand had to cut all ties with its brand ambassador... Auch. There’s one thing all brands who have ended up on the receiving end of such a shitstorm have in common: They did not see it coming. The consequences? A permanently damaged reputation, astronomic revenue losses or even plummeting stocks. 📉 In our latest whitepaper on Brand Protection, our LOOPING ONE expert Michael Remke explains how companies avoid, manage and bounce back from the much-dreaded shitstorm.
