BrandQs model / 02

Be relevant when the category opens in someone’s mind.

Relevance is not about everyone finding your brand ‘interesting’. It is about linking your brand to enough relevant buying situations, needs and expectations to come to mind when a choice arises.

01

Start with category buying situations.

Category Entry Points make concrete when, where, why and with whom people think about the category. They give brand building a broader agenda than one audience or one message.

  • CEP mapping and prioritisation
  • Buyer research instead of internal brainstorming alone
  • Reach across relevant buying situations
  • Competitive memory structures
02

Make offer, price and innovation carry the promise.

A relevant campaign cannot rescue an irrelevant offer. Product, service, price architecture, portfolio and innovation therefore belong in the same strategic discussion.

  • Proposition and portfolio
  • Pricing and value perception
  • Innovation fit
  • Category and channel context
03

Use communication to broaden memory.

Good communication does not endlessly repeat the same rational claim. It builds more routes to the brand, with consistent assets and creative variation that makes relevant situations memorable.

  • CEP-led communication
  • Emotion and salience
  • Creative routes per buying situation
  • Continuity instead of campaign amnesia
Not three separate disciplines

Distinctive, relevant and present reinforce each other.

A recognisable brand linked to too few buying situations remains narrow. A relevant brand that cannot be found frustrates demand. An available brand without recognition becomes mainly a distribution product. BrandQs uses the three as one growth system.

Increase mental availability.
