Brand Strategy FAQs
What is brand strategy?
+
It is the set of decisions about who you serve, what you claim, and why that claim is believable. Design and copy are the output; strategy is the input.
How is it different from branding?
+
Branding is the visual and verbal system. Strategy is the reasoning that makes the system correct rather than merely attractive.
How much does brand strategy cost in India?
+
Standalone strategy starts at ₹75,000. Combined identity and website engagements start at ₹1,50,000.
Do we need it if we already have customers?
+
Usually yes. Traction proves demand; it rarely proves your message is the most efficient one available.
How do you measure it?
+
Sales cycle length, win rate against a named alternative, inbound lead quality, and message consistency across touchpoints.
How involved does the founder need to be?
+
Two to three sessions of 90 minutes. Positioning cannot be outsourced entirely.
