A brand touchpoint is
simply an opportunity to enhance or
strengthen the brand.
Tangibles like packaging, websites,
business cards, newsletters and
spoken communications are all
examples of brand touchpoints.
If your brand isn’t
consistent, your
message is diluted
and the customer is
left confused.
Printed communication
Printed communication offers the broadest range of
visual touchpoints for strengthening a brand. Corporate
communications such as stationery and brochures are
integral pieces in communicating the brand.
Web and multimedia communication
Digital communication is as important as printed
communication when it comes to strengthening a brand.
Web sites are available on demand. In an average day, a
person can easily take in more banner advertising than
TV advertising. Interactive demonstrations and
presentations are becoming more and more common.
These opportunities are potent vehicles for building brand
awareness and strength.
Email, phone and spoken communication
The most basic levels of brand consistency are the most
often overlooked and least understood. A company whose
employees answer the phone consistently, use the same
language when describing their services, and use similar
email auto signatures, is going to be more memorable
than a company whose verbal communications are
inconsistent and scattered.
