Programs: Emotional Branding Keynote This is an hour-and-a-half inspirational, interactive presentation by Marc Gobe on the topic of Emotional Branding and how it can specifically impact your business. This intriguing and challenging presentation, full of fascinating, vivid examples from best practices as well as from Marc's personal experience managing leading global brands, offers innovative thoughts on how brands develop powerful emotional personalities. The presentation can be tailored to meet your most current needs and brings you the freshest material from Marc Gobe's worldwide presentations. Emotional Identity This is a half- or full-day brainstorming session with senior management and brand teams that uses our Emotional Identity methodology: an interactive, visually driven branding tool that helps companies articulate their brand or corporation's essence through visual cues. The Emotional Identity visualization process encourages a management team to rally around a brand's inherent sensory and emotional content, unifying the team's collective interpretation of a brand's equities and vision for brand development. The result of the exercise is a focused brand positioning expression, which can serve as a core platform for building targeted, effective emotional communication that is entirely distinct from the competition. Sense A unique sensory and emotions-driven audit and analysis of the marketplace and your brand's competitive landscape. Based on our proprietary "Head, Heart and Gut" approach, we evaluate visual codes and emotional stimuli associated to a brand and its competition, determining how consumers experience your brand on a sensory level. The results are integrated with a discussion of cultural trends and opportunities in the category. The Sense process unearths the core values of your brand and shows you its strongest evolutionary path for the future. Marc can also create custom combinations of any of these workshops, specifically designed to meet your particular needs. |
