FAQs

How do I clearly define the scope of work for a brand strategist?

Start by listing out everything you need help with, like brand positioning, messaging, and visual identity. Be specific, so the strategist knows exactly what you want. It’s like building a playbook for your project, helping everyone stay on the same page.

What should I include in a brand strategy project brief?

A good brief has your company goals, target audience, and project timeline. Share your brand’s story and why it exists. This helps the brand strategist come up with ideas that match your vision perfectly.

How can I set realistic timelines for a brand strategy project?

Think about how much time each step will take, like research, development, and delivery. It's like putting together a puzzle smoothly. Talk with the strategist to agree on a schedule that works for both of you.

What deliverables should I expect from a brand strategist?

Deliverables might include a brand book, logo design, and a marketing strategy. Make a list of everything you want before the project starts. This will help the strategist know what to focus on and what to deliver.

How should I share my company’s values and culture with a brand strategist?

Create a document that talks about your company’s mission, vision, and values. Share stories about your company’s history and culture. This helps the strategist design a brand that feels personal and unique to your business.

What communication tools should I use to stay in touch with my brand strategist during the project?

Platforms like email, video calls, or messaging apps are good for regular updates. Regular check-ins help everyone to stay informed on the progress. Choose tools that suit both you and your strategist for easy communication.

How do I evaluate if the brand strategist understands my project needs?

Review their initial ideas and see if they reflect your goals and vision. This is like having a sneak peek at how they think and work. If they capture your needs well, it means they understand what you’re aiming for.

Why is it important to define key performance indicators (KPIs) for a brand strategy project?

KPIs help you measure if your brand strategy is a success. They can show things like how your brand awareness or customer engagement improves. Decide on KPIs with your strategist to track the project’s progress effectively.

How do I ensure my brand strategy stays relevant to the US market?

Research US market trends and customer behavior to guide your strategy. Share this market information with your brand strategist. This way, the strategy is tailored to your audience in the United States.

What should I consider about cultural sensitivity when developing a brand strategy for the US?

The US is diverse, with different cultures and backgrounds. Work with your brand strategist to ensure the messaging and visuals are respectful and inclusive. This builds a brand that appeals to a broad audience.
