Our cohesive brand identity toolkit, backed by competition analysis and market research, helps your brand stand out and make a lasting impression.
Prominent brands, such as Apple in the tech industry and McDonald’s in the fast food sector, are the epitome of their respective categories.
They serve as benchmarks for comparison and significantly influence consumer preferences, pricing, and product innovation.
Meanwhile, distinctive brands like Tesla in the automobile industry and Liquid Death, a brand of non-alcoholic beverage that primarily sells water, differentiate themselves and avoid direct competition with these leading brands.
Achieving the right balance between centrality and distinctiveness is crucial as it influences brand perception, sales volume, pricing, and profitability. Traditionally, marketers lacked tools to balance these aspects effectively, relying on separate analyses for brand positioning and business performance.
The C-D map is a new approach that directly links a brand’s perceptual position with business outcomes like sales and price. This tool helps managers determine market positions, allocate resources, track performance, and evaluate strategy over time, showing that centrality and distinctiveness can be pursued simultaneously.
Creating a C-D map involves identifying the market and customer segments, conducting surveys to gather data on consumers’ perceptions of a brand’s centrality and distinctiveness, and plotting this data on a 2×2 matrix. The map also captures market performance, with bubble sizes proportional to sales volume, price, or other metrics.
In both the car and beer markets, higher centrality correlates with greater sales volume. For instance, Toyota and Budweiser, the most central brands in their categories, had the highest sales volumes. Conversely, higher distinctiveness correlates with lower sales volumes but allows brands to charge premium prices, as seen with Porsche and Guinness.
These brands enjoy high sales volumes and premium pricing. They must balance maintaining distinctiveness while appealing to a broad audience.
These brands enjoy high sales volumes and premium pricing. They must balance maintaining distinctiveness while appealing to a broad audience.
These brands often follow a “me too” strategy, attracting lower-priced consumers. They may need help to shift their positioning but can survive with low marketing costs.
These niche brands must ensure profitability at low volumes or aim to become more central to increase sales without losing their unique appeal.
Brands can strategically move their position to exploit less crowded market territory or grow sales.
Take Tesla, an unconventional brand that is constantly adapting its position to gain a more central market share, inspiring other peripheral brands to consider a more mainstream approach.
Companies can use the C-D map to ensure their investment in brand strategy pays off by evaluating a brand’s strategic position, assessing the risks and rewards of shifting it and monitoring progress.
