Butler my brand


FMCG marketers take note: In case you’re one of those who don’t read and found out many years ago from Al Ries that advertising is in freefall and PR is on the rise, here’s further proof.It’s about brands selling themselves doing something that benefits and is relevant to their consumers, not just pummel them to death with one-way advertising.

Unspun’s yet to meet a FMCG market that gets it where this is concerned.

6. BRAND BUTLERS

Consider this: if consumers value the authentic, the practical, the exclusive, and they’re also forever looking to make life more convenient, even save some time, then why persist in bombarding them with your mega-million dollar/euro/pound, one-way advertising campaigns? Instead of stalking potential and existing customers (which is not very 2008), why not assist them in smart, relevant ways, making the most of your products and whatever it is your brand stands for? Remember, giving is the new taking 😉
Think baby food or diaper brands opening a lounge area, including diaper-changing facilities and microwaves, for parents and their offspring at a major airport or in malls. Or a bank installing secure, high-tech lockers next to the beach, so beachgoers can safely store their belongings when going for a swim or walk.
