Blow Away The Competition With A Meaningful Marketing Campaign

Showcase your ethical choices and develop a loyal relationship with your target audience

 

Customers are increasingly motivated to find out more about your brand when deciding to spend their money with you. One of the most important factors in customers choosing you right now is how your business operates ethically. However, building a reputation and developing your brand can take time.

 

“It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it. If you think about that, you’ll do things differently.”
– Warren Buffet, CEO of Berkshire Hathaway

WE’RE READY TO DEVELOP A MEANINGFUL MARKETING CAMPAIGN THAT WILL DELIVER YOU TANGIBLE RESULTS.

LET US SHOW YOU HOW

 

What Ethical Choices Should Your Brand Consider?

 

1. BUILD A CAMPAIGN THAT DEMONSTRATES YOUR SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

 

It’s all good saying that your company cares about what is affecting your customer right now but how do you prove this? Demonstrate what your company is doing and showcase this in an engaging and memorable marketing campaign.

In doing this you will build your brand trust, strength and likability. This means that your customer WILL choose you over your competitors.

EXAMPLES OF GREAT CAMPAIGNS:

Ben & Jerry’s Join The Climate Movement

 

Ice cream melts and so are our ice caps. Ben & Jerry’s used the visual of this in their 2015 ‘Save Our Swirled’ campaign in line with the UN Climate Summit. As part of this, they teamed up with Tesla Motors to promote the use of electric cars.

 

Patagonia What A Pile Of Shirt!

 

Clothing brand Patagonia has for many years raised their voice to use the resources that they have to do something about OUR climate crisis. Just look at the Activism section of their site!

From the 1% tax that they impose on themselves to fight climate change to their video campaigns demonstrating what they do is a huge part of their brand story and ethical accountability.

 

STORYTELLING IS IN OUR DNA

From ideation to execution we can develop your brand story to incorporate the social, economic and environmental issues that your business takes a stance on and share this with your target audience. Call us to find out more 😉

 

2. PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH

 

If your brand preaches one thing but practices another then your business will immediately be under fire from your customer for being untrustworthy. What you say matters and customers will hold you accountable to that.

Customers respect and appreciate consistent branding – don’t believe us? CLICK HERE for more on the importance of brand consistency.

 

3. DEVELOP AND SHOWCASE SOCIALLY CONSCIOUS PRODUCTS

 

Customers will continue to look to see if your brand offers goods and services that are socially conscious. Do you run a trade service that donates regularly to a charity to show your support to local causes? Or a gym that uses solar power to offset the electricity used to power your machines? Are Does your restaurant serve vegan options because you care about the environmental impact of the livestock industry?

Firstly, you should be doing this because you CARE but secondly you can AMPLIFY the importance of this to you to YOUR customer.
