Brand Personality: Freedom

Brand personalities - or brand archetypes - are the shortcuts to how we connect and build relationships with our leads, prospects, clients, and customers.

 

Your company's brand personality is a key piece in the roadmap for all of your business decisions including how you speak to prospects, what to say in your newsletters, how to decorate your office, and how you lead a presentation.

 

As a business owner, it's likely that your business personality and your own personality have some overlap. However, while you are a dynamic and complex individual, your company should follow the 70/30 rule, meaning your vibe and voice are about 70% primary personality and 30% secondary personality.

If your brand is based on Freedom:

  • Your brand is all about supporting freedom and authenticity for your clients/customers.

  • You are an idealist, explorer, or educator.

  • Your company is here to provide a product or service that is needed for reliability, understanding, or adventure.
