Branding and Identity

• Branding is the messaging work an organization does to encourage people to feel a certain way about their product, in NAMI’s case, what we do.

• Branding is not about getting your target market to choose you over the competition, but it is about getting your prospects to see you as the only one that provides a solution to their problem.

Branding and Identity (continued)• Branding is the look, feel, sound, and

experience• Identity is the outward expression of the brand,

including its name and visual appearance. • The brand's identity is its fundamental means of

recognition

To become a household name, people have to recognize us, know us, trust us.
