Brand Strategy - Situation Analysis
• Mobile Meals is the leading provider of home delivery meals in our region – helping clients sustain independence/improve quality of life
• Nearly 50 years of positive equity behind your organization
• Yet, the brand suffers on both a recognition and awareness level
![Page 10: Thursday, June 12, 2014Thread Marketing Group1 Marketing Strategy and Support Mobile Meals of Toledo March 21, 2012](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103111/5519dad1550346d07b8b4650/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Brand Strategy:More than a Logo/Identity
• Brand is the point of truth between:– What you really are– What you want to become– How you are perceived
• Brand is an accurate
reflection of your
personality
![Page 11: Thursday, June 12, 2014Thread Marketing Group1 Marketing Strategy and Support Mobile Meals of Toledo March 21, 2012](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103111/5519dad1550346d07b8b4650/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Brand Strategy:Getting it Right From the Beginning…
• Brand is reinforced every time there is an interaction with your organization
– Important to understand organization’s core values/benefits to the customer
– Important to plan, build, and manage how you’re perceived in marketplace
– Important to effectively communicate key benefits to your target audience
![Page 12: Thursday, June 12, 2014Thread Marketing Group1 Marketing Strategy and Support Mobile Meals of Toledo March 21, 2012](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103111/5519dad1550346d07b8b4650/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Strong Brands are not Complicated
• Begins with Brand Identity – “how you visually represent yourself”
• Continues with Brand Awareness – “how you consistently tell your story”
• Resonates with Brand Promise – “how you live your brand”
Strong brands keep existing customers coming back with minimal marketing expenditure

Mobile Meals Brand:Why isn’t it resonating with the public?
• Brand confusion with Meals on Wheels – Not enough differentiation/explanation of providers
• Visually unappealing to your prime target – Women make 80% of healthcare decisions for family
– Need stronger connection - Softer, friendlier, value-driven
• Mark supports negative perceptions in the market:– Limited service – not available in my area
– Only serves the elderly or physically disabled
– Meals are neither nutritional or palatable
– Not viewed as a resource – instead as a last resort

Mobile Meals Brand: The Opportunity
• New or enhanced logo mark can serve as an education/communication tool – dispel myths
• Emotional & intellectual connection – helps me understand value and choice becomes easy
• Branding is tribal in nature – people want to be associated with quality, popularity, cause-marketing

Brand EnhancementsBuild your brand from the inside out – not outside in
•Misuse of color and harsh graphics – cold and unwelcoming•New ID represents what they do – serving people and animals•Interaction, color and whimsy nonverbally communicate their message – “where happy endings begin”
![Page 17: Thursday, June 12, 2014Thread Marketing Group1 Marketing Strategy and Support Mobile Meals of Toledo March 21, 2012](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022103111/5519dad1550346d07b8b4650/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Brand EnhancementsAccurately display your brand personality and
consistently apply it
•Logo mark no longer represents resorts image/offerings•Complete renovation with added amenities•New ownership – no longer just a waterpark•Trying to attract a more upscale family as well as couples, friends getaways

Brand EnhancementsBrand perception/impressions build over time
•Similar to issues facing Mobile Meals•Outdated typeface and graphic treatment•New logo is stylish, more upscale•Appropriate color, but weak execution
