Don't just build a product, build a brand world.
I've been reading Brand Mysticism by Steven Grasse & Aaron Goldfarb, the branding minds behind the worlds of Hendrick's Gin and Sailer Jerry Rum.
How do you build your own brand world?
1️⃣ Start with your product & 15 mins
2️⃣ Brain dump everything that comes to mind when you expand the edges of your product's "box." Just flow...
3️⃣ Do this with each of your key ingredients, elements of your founder story, etc.
4️⃣ Build a mind map of these wider and wider associations
5️⃣ Then build it into the fundamental framework of your copy & creative.
Product = Seasoning with dates from the California Desert
Associations: Desert roadtripping, Palm Springs, Joshua Tree, Palm Springs in the 60s, old cars, date festivals, retro hats, postcards, family trips...
You get the point.
My client, Desert Dust leaned in with me, and built a world. And I'm beyond excited to share this world with you.
