It's time to enter the age of brand centric companies

We brand managers have seen brands driving incredible results to our businesses. We've seen brands creating lasting bonds with our consumers. But we've also seen brands relegated to what doesn't sell, what doesn't connect, what's superficial, something to do later. But we brand managers also know when the business world is ready to change.

We are trained to understand the culture, context and market. And we know when the wind changes direction. Now, the time has come for us to take our place and put branding in a strategic position in companies.

To be brand-centric is not just looking at appearance
Not all companies became symbols of their time.

But those that reached that level found the loyalty of their consumers, cost efficiency and consistent growth.

We already lived the era of user-centric companies. It indeed brought results. We observed a reduction of friction during product use with more simless experience. customer service level up and an overall better user experience. Now, we are evolving to a new moment where we prioritize less the first sale, and more the recurrence of usage. The era where a strong brand aims to have and retain the best talents, where consumers are willing to continue engaing, buying and recommend the products and services they like. And a company that wants even more a client thar understands what they offer and represent.

Now, we are evolving towards a new moment, which values ​​less the first sale and more the recurrence of use.

A moment when a strong brand seeks to hire and retain the best talent in the company; seeks consumers willing to keep consuming, interacting and recommending its products and services; seeks future customers who are more willing to make a purchase decision because they know what that company stands for.

A moment where the media market is everyday more expensive in the dispute of people's attention. And, what do we all aim to find in this whirlwind of offers, information and screens? Relevance. We are, indeed entering a new era of brand centric companies. Beign brand centric does not mean only caring for appearance. On the contrary, it means beign centered in significance. And this significance lives in the intersection between consumers and the companies' truth. In between knowing what I am and what we want to present.
E ser centrado em marca não é olhar apenas para a aparência. Pelo contrário. É ser centrado em significado. E o significado vive na interseção entre consumidores e a verdade da empresa. Entre saber o que se é e o que se quer representar.

Brands are great icons of our time

They are great drivers of our culture, great forces of our economy. The era of the product for the product's sake is gone.

And the era of the meaningful product is already upon us. Not in campaigns. Not in media. Not only on screens and empty offers, but in attitudes that represent an essence. And essence is not lost with time.

It is up to us, brand managers, to place branding in a strategic place and make the world more brand centric. It's up to us to make that change happen.
