00:00In this video, we'll learn what is the true meaning of a brand and understand how it functions
00:06in the real world of everyday practice. Hello and a warm welcome to the Transcendent.
00:24Branding is likely the most misunderstood, misused, and misspent term within the creative
00:29visual artistry domain. Branding is now the blanket phrase covering logos, identity systems,
00:35slogans, and websites. It seems like everyone active on social media is acting as an influencer
00:41and creating their own unique brand. So before we start exploring and understanding what a brand
00:48truly represents, we must first clearly define and clarify what it is not. First and most critically,
00:55a logo isn't a brand unless it's marking some livestock. A logo is simply a logo. It is not
01:02a brand. Its primary role is to visually signify the business identity, not to elaborate explain
01:08what they perform daily. A true brand is the commitment, the public perception, and the
01:13core concept. It exists as an extremely precious resource for any company. A brand also builds
01:20emotional attachments, whether positive or negative. We engage with brands through complete devotion,
01:26or we simply dismiss them. We will begin with the commitment. Let's examine a brand like FedEx.
01:33FedEx delivers quick, reliable shipping with expert conduct and trusted professionalism. Each package
01:40is handled with precision and high performance, ensuring safe, on-time delivery at a fair price.
01:46The company might offer other services, but this remains the central idea we anticipate.
01:52Every piece of marketing, from ads to outreach, strengthens this FedEx commitment.
01:57Now, let's explore its public perception. If we have had a positive and dependable history with FedEx,
02:03and we consistently support their reliable practices, they continue to hold and strengthen a
02:08strong reputation. This reputation is earned, not bought. The opposite perspective is also true
02:15and accurate. For many years, Enron was widely celebrated as a pioneering, leading American
02:22business innovator. The famous designer Paul Rand crafted its logo. Then, in 2001, it was exposed that
02:30Enron had deceived and falsified its financial status. That logo, once celebrated as a key component
02:37of a triumphant corporate identity system, ultimately transformed into a notorious symbol of deceit
02:43and betrayal. And finally, we have the core concept. McDonald's commits to offering tasty meals served
02:50fast for a small price. But its true core concept is the dependability and safety assurance of a uniform
02:56product. No matter if a customer is dining in USA or find themselves in India, they won't have to guess if
03:03some local small eatery is sanitary or unkempt. Instead, they can depend entirely on McDonald's for a
03:09predictable and uniform experience. We are all inherently tribal by nature, seeking connection
03:16and community. Brands skillfully leverage this deep sense of group belonging and identity. One person is
03:23part of the Apple tribe, while someone else is with the Samsung tribe. Some might identify to the Google
03:29tribe, whereas others identify with the Microsoft tribe. The entire goal of branding is to build these
03:35emotional ties and ensure customer loyalty. When this strategy succeeds, a brand transforms its customers into its
03:43most passionate and vocal supporters, as well as its most effective and influential marketers. A designer looking
03:51beyond logo creation understands that a brand's strength hinges on a comprehensive strategy that shapes its identity. Our role is to
03:59evaluate the brand's commitment, audience perception, and core identity. However, neither a business nor a designer
04:07fully creates a brand. Its essence is shaped by the audience's perspective, influenced by experiences and
04:14messaging. Designers can guide the narrative, align it with a brand's vision, and identify risks that could harm its
04:21integrity or perception, ensuring it resonates authentically.
