I’ve said many times before that great campaigns are single minded, simple and memorable.
But they are also repeated, over and over again.
The same message, consistently delivered over time, across all media.
A strong brand promise lies at the heart of any decent marketing strategy.
It’s incredibly important.
Remember that consistency IN ITSELF is part of the brand promise your business must deliver on.
And consistency of brand messaging enables customers to form a solid opinion OVER TIME of your brand promise.
When brands chop and change their advertising, the customer loses sight of what they can expect.

Step 2 – repeat, repeat, repeat.
