Using the Core Brand Message ideas, what did Reebok do wrong?
(And what did Nike do right?)
© Margaret C. Campbell
Need to understand your real “essence” – talks about “why you exist.” What are you about and in what way are you bringing value to your customers?
Perception versus reality – really need to understand the consumer’s perceptions (market research)
Across time – he talks about the big idea and the need for it to be valid for multiple years – across time.
Simple and clear enough
Differentiating
Relevant
Consistent
