What is Brand Positioning?

What Is Brand Positioning?

Brand positioning is the process of positioning your brand in such a way that the audience perceives it in a good light. I’m sure you’re saying, Define Perceive? Perceive refers to the consumer’s mental state when they come across your brand. Now, Brand Positioning is very important to build a brand.

Brand Positioning Strategy

Brand Positioning Strategies

Research your Target audience

Market Positioning Research

To begin with your strategy, the first step would be identifying who the strategy is for. You need to search for your potential target audience and everything about them. Their locations, age groups, generic financial status, emotional bend, and a set of personality traits. For example, if your brand sells nail paints who do you think the target audience is? Mostly Women right? Then we can further break it down to women who like painting their nails, and then we can segregate them based on the colors they’d like and furthermore. So yeah, What I’m trying to say is research on your target audience is important.

Create a Brand perception around them.

Positioning In Market and Brand Perception

Now that you have your target audience, it is time to create your brand image for them. The things they would like, not like, the ideas that attract them, the references that attract them, etc. Your brand’s perception should be a good one and should be in the minds of your target audience. If your brand sells diapers for kids, there’s no point in building a good brand image in the minds of teenagers without kids. And therefore your brand and the creation of its identity should be focused on connecting with your target audience.

Put forward the key features of your Brand based on the audience research

And just like that, you need to convey your brand’s emotion and thus connect with the consumers.
