Brand Diplomacy—sounds elegant, doesn’t it? But the truth is, there’s nothing ‘fancy’ about strategic management and flawless execution. There’s nothing flashy about hours of intense – nose to the proverbial grindstone – planning. True, it may not be the most elegant thing in the world. But it’s certainly effective.
Here’s what you need to know: high-performing marketing teams are more likely than underperforming ones to focus on the customer experience, coordinate closely with Sales, and engage consumers across channels, according to recent research from Salesforce. In other words, product and service launches don’t meet their full potential when global commercial marketing teams fail to listen to their customers.
Brand Diplomacy
Brand Diplomacy is about doing just that – delivering on a company’s brand promise by listening to the wants and needs of their customers.
Let’s look at it like this: you must understand the wants of your customers. But you can’t just stop with the here and now, you also must learn to track their wants and needs into the future. In short, you must strategically grow and scale with your audience.
The real reason product & service launches in the healthcare industry fail is not because their graphics aren’t the best on the market, their design standards the most cutting edge, or their marketing copy the wittiest—the real reason a product or service launch fails is because the global commercial marketing teams fail to execute on the brand promise for the product or service. In summary, customer’s expectations are not met.
