Personality and Voice Through Archetype Identification
The term "archetypes", as it is used in marketing today, has its origins in Carl Gustav Jung's theories. He believed that universal, mythic characters- archetypes-reside within the collective unconscious of people the world over. Archetypal images represent fundamental human desires and evoke deep emotions.
Is your brand serious, competent, daring, adventurous, fun, rebellious, or intelligent? Is your brand sophisticated, outdoorsy, or reliable? Identifying your brand's archetype can enable you to develop a brand personality that resonates with your prospects and customers, and helps you define and direct your marketing and communications efforts. And when that personality is conveyed consistently across your products, services, logo, tagline, packaging, and communications, your marketing will be on target and therefore, more effective.
During this presentation 12 universal archetypes, symbolizing basic human needs, aspirations or motivations will be examined and supported by examples of companies that have successfully employed archetypes in building their brands.
