Your business creates a culture of communication and purpose when it shares stories that speak to the mind and appeal to the heart.
Words are powerful elements of alignment: key themes and messaging must be carefully selected and crafted to create a memorable perception of your brand and the value it represents.
The words and phrases that you choose for
are the phrases that you want your employees to use and customers to share in conversation. You can’t create your brand perception, but your words—and the actions that support them—can influence your brand perception in your audience’s hearts and minds.
Words — combined with powerful typography and memorable imagery — evoke meaning, motivate people to action, and become a catalyst that lead to changed thinking in the minds (and hearts) of those you’re seeking to engage.
Simply: Changed thinking leads to changed behavior.
Influence the perception of a brand (how people think about it), and you’ll change the behavior of the consumer.
To inspire is to stir the heart and challenge the mind of people who want to believe in your brand. When an individual understands deeply how their values align with your brand, this gives them more than an opportunity to be a customer or ambassador. It gives them a story to share, a point of connection, and personal meaning.
James Humes, speechwriter for five presidents, reminds us:
Your audience will recognize and respond to inspirational brand positioning when what you say (your message) aligns with how you say it (Character, Culture, and Voice) and connect with the things they value most.
In essence, when your story and messages align with what is most important to your audience, you’re speaking their language. Your purpose becomes their story and an anthem they will raise.
Choose your words well and they will motivate people to follow, buy, advocate , and believe in your brand.
Brand believers will see the value in what you sell and buy it at higher cost.
Believers become ambassadors, who will represent your brand wherever they are, because they believe in what your brand represents cause.
Believers will follow wherever the organization leads, and will support your brand when you’ve inspired them to action.
Your inspiration gives those who believe in your brand meaning because they become part of the change and impact. They identify and become part of your tribe.
What’s the secret?
It’s not about you or your brand. It’s about your audience and how your inspirational leadership makes them feel.
People are watching, and they ask: “Do you want me to follow you? Inspire me!”
