To achieve, accomplish, and triumph, brands must remain strong in the face of adversity and develop a plan to rule supreme in the market and industries. We are no longer in the recovery phase, and the last few years have transformed the goals, work approach, and brand building strategies. Brands should not be concerned with what they are selling, but rather with how they are selling it and to whom they are marketing it for.
With the passage of time, the importance of customer centricity has grown. Because of the epidemic, brands are attempting to be more customer focused. Customer centricity is a never- ending journey, not a destination.
Some businesses recovered quickly following the epidemic, while others suffered and succumbed to the pressure. Brands that have made it through this period and solved modern problems will continue to thrive as long as their strategies are in place. These brands will leave an impression on start-ups and help them expand.
With shifting working methods and rising skill trends, organisations are also attempting to continuously improve employee growth and well-being. These brands are increasingly creating vital connections with their workforces and engaging them in activities to keep their employees motivated. Workplaces have been increasingly focused on raising employees’ spirits and morale, which leads to efficiency and greater productivity.
ET takes on the tricky challenge to measure the success of a brand either
by segregating them by sector or the market position they occupy. The
series aims to identify and jettison stellar brands for customers.
As businesses resume their upward trajectory, we take this opportunity to recognise and honour companies that have prospered despite the odds and persevered in the face of adversity.
The Economic Times Promising Brands Conclave is an effort to shine the strobe light on organisations that have strived to serve their customers in the best possible way. The platform, via standalone addresses, fireside chats and roundtable discussions, will focus on delving deeper into understanding how these companies have succeeded in contributing to an enjoyable customer experience.
This evening will bring together the marketing gurus, brand custodians, brand owners, best creative leaders from the marketing fraternity on one platform to celebrate the Promising Brands and engage in the most candid knowledge exchange platform to understand the nuances of successful brands.
