How To Maintain Brand Consistency Across Products

By Steven Harrison


People don't just purchase products because they like what the products do. They also purchase them because they like the company that makes them, either for reasons of reliability or prestige. Maintaining this effect is the job of brand consistency.

Having a good message is very important. The message can be nearly anything, but think of it as the brand's constitution. Sometimes the message is a slogan, a jingle, or something else that is often used in association with your products, and other times it is simply a consistent part of your packaging, advertisements, or products.

Getting your message out to the public is also important. Putting it on every advertisement, package, and commercial is important. You want this message to be what pops into a customer's head when they think about you. This is another part of the reason why never violating the message is important.

The demographic your products are targeting is important mostly because you need to have one. Trying to target the entire world means targeting nobody, and will probably get you few loyal customers. Instead, choose a market to aim your products at. You don't need to state it obviously, but tailor advertisements towards it, instead.

Find or create a niche for your products. This means looking for an area of customer business that is not currently filled, or which you can improve upon. Modern toiletries come in a much wider variety than they used to, which is an example of companies expanding into more specialized niches. Targeting a certain market can earn loyal customers.

Maintain brand consistency by maintaining a certain standard of perception, as well. If you are selling a specialty item, keep it in high-end boutiques. If you are selling products for the average citizen, consider selling it at big box stores and other places where the general public shops. Overextending your brand into areas where it doesn't fit can only harm your image.
