In today's world, where competition has become a “deadly weapon,” ‘differentiation’ is the only lifeline for companies. Of course, “differentiation” is possible not only in products but in every aspect. For example, a logistics company that reduces delivery times from 3 days to 1 day in its sector, or a supermarket chain that consistently manages to sell products at the lowest price, may be succeeding in differentiation through separate applications. However, the end result is the same: gaining an edge in competition...
So, how will we achieve institutionalization to gain a competitive edge?
Every company has a story, just like every person. So how much of that story have you been able to create?
Just as important as brands' logos, slogans, and colors are their stories. When this is the case, all factors become unique marketing tools. Among all these tools, ‘stories’ contribute to brand awareness while significantly distinguishing themselves from other tools. Brands' stories make them tangible. They help us form an emotional connection as if we could hold them in our hands.
Today, every company and every brand, whether prominent or not, has a founding story. Organizations that value marketing must bring these stories to light.
