Defining your brand’s strategy is one thing, achieving success with it is another. Give your brand strategy its best chance for success by ensuring these three key things happen within your organization.

1. Support from the c-suite down

   Executives and senior leadership should:

   • understand and believe in the role of brand as a key driver of business strategy

   • be able to speak to and demonstrate brand strategy

   • demand the necessary budget and resources to achieve the brand’s goals

2. Operationalize throughout the business

   • integrate brand strategy with functions and tactics

   • ensure employees understand the role of brand, see it as a driver of success and have the resources to realize it

   • equate product, service, customer and employee experiences with the brand experience

3. Measure to manage

• identify and define brand success indicators

• evaluate over time, course correct as necessary
