Coco Chanel On Brand Purpose

GabrielleChanel aka CocoChanel simply states how this principle and its implications were clarified at the infamous Association of National Advertisers conference in Phoenix. Megamind CMOs from leading organisations outlined why purpose-driven branding takes the cup in today’s environment.

Find your why, is a concept that has been thrown around a lot in the past 10 years. Which has made it seem like another trend/fad/jargon that’s just another trick in the toolbox. Yet, every day, everything we do has a strong ‘why’ behind it. Makes you think right? In other words, your purpose is the driving factor in the life choices you make.

According to the Business Strategy Insider, the purpose is made up of two elements.

Functional; focuses on commercial success aka making money.

Intentional; add value to the world while making money. 

Consumers know that making money is important to almost every business, but they admire and become loyal to brands that are about more than just profitability. Does this ring any bells for you? Which brands do you love? Why do you love them? Are they about more than just money? These brands are a great source of inspiration for your own brand marketing.
