Most brands are forgettable. Not because their products aren’t great, but because they fail to connect. They focus on features, push discounts, and talk about themselves like they’re the main character—but they never tap into what makes people care.

That’s where brand storytelling changes the game.

A great brand story doesn’t just describe what you sell—it makes people feel something. It turns a product into a movement, a business into a belief system. It’s the reason people wear Apple like a badge of honour, happily spend $12 on a pint of Häagen-Dazs, or swear by Dr Bronner’s all-in-one soap like it’s some kind of holy relic.

And the best part? You don’t have to be a billion-dollar company to do it.

Most brand positioning statements are a waste of words. They sound good in strategy meetings, but in the real world? They’re forgettable, generic, and do nothing to make a brand stand out. If your brand positioning statement could be swapped with a competitor’s and no one would notice, you’ve got a problem.

A strong brand positioning statement isn’t just a tagline—it’s the foundation of how you differentiate, communicate, and connect with the right customers. Done right, it makes your marketing sharper, your messaging clearer, and your brand impossible to ignore.

Let’s break down why most brand positioning statements fail—and more importantly, how to fix yours.

What is Brand Strategy

A brand strategy is your business's roadmap to success. It's more than just a fancy logo or a catchy slogan; it's the heart and soul of your company.

Think of your brand as a person. Your brand strategy is its personality, values, and goals. It's how you want people to feel when they interact with your business. It guides every decision you make, from the products you offer to the way you talk to customers.

A strong brand strategy helps you stand out from the crowd, build trust with your customers, and create a loyal following. It's the foundation for everything you do as a business.
