Listen "Unforgettable"
Episode Synopsis
Is your brand truly unforgettable? Or could it just as easily belong to your competition? In this episode of The Briefcase, Elizabeth Sutherland, President & CEO of Sutherland Weston Marketing Communications, shares why a distinct brand voice and look are essential for standing out. Many businesses rely on generic messaging: "We put the customer first" or "We're committed to great service." These phrases do little to differentiate a brand. Elizabeth introduces a simple yet powerful test: Remove your logo from your website, ads, or marketing materials—would people still recognize it as yours? If not, it's time to refine your brand's voice, visuals, and messaging. 💡 What you'll learn: – Your brand should have a distinct, ownable look and voice that sets you apart. – Generic messaging makes your brand forgettable—ditch the clichés and focus on what makes you unique. – A simple test: Remove your logo from your marketing materials. Do customers still know it's you? Don't forget to be unforgettable! Elizabeth Sutherland is President and CEO at Sutherland Weston, where she has led strategy and brand development for the past twenty years. She helps Maine-based companies connect their brand, marketing, and sales efforts in practical, profitable ways. Got a question? Reach out to the Sutherland Weston team at sutherlandweston.com.
