Building a <strong>brand pyramid<\/strong> is an important step new brands should take. It creates an understanding of the company&#8217;s core values and benefits and as a result, defines the brand idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>brand pyramid<\/strong> model was first introduced in the late 20th century. This representational framework is especially useful to new companies trying to enter the market for the first time. It&#8217;s because <strong>brand pyramids<\/strong> help determine the brand identity and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sortlist.com\/blog\/marketing-strategy-competitive-positioning\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">market positioning<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Does It Matter?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There&#8217;s a simple reason why it&#8217;s called a pyramid: it moves from base to top, starting from the most tangible aspects of the brand and ending with the brand&#8217;s essence. Building a <strong>brand pyramid<\/strong> for your company&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sortlist.com\/branding\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">branding<\/a> is vital to answer the questions a new brand encounters:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>What&#8217;s the core idea of your brand?<\/li><li>What are the brand&#8217;s core values?<\/li><li>How should a customer feel when interacting with the brand products?<\/li><li>What&#8217;s your brand&#8217;s value proposition?<\/li><li>Which customer problems are you trying to solve?<\/li><li>What&#8217;s your brand&#8217;s vision?<\/li><li>What&#8217;s your brand&#8217;s emotional value?<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Building a brand is much like building a pyramid. In both cases, the &#8220;builder&#8221; slowly and carefully approaches the top, which is the final destination. You can&#8217;t reach the brand essence without having a deep understanding of the brand; you can&#8217;t have an understanding unless you&#8217;ve already gone through the basic aspects of your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sortlist.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/com-article-images-39.png\" alt=\"brand pyramid\" class=\"wp-image-6579\" width=\"365\" height=\"258\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/com-article-images-39.png 2245w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/com-article-images-39-768x543.png 768w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/com-article-images-39-1536x1086.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/com-article-images-39-2048x1448.png 2048w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/com-article-images-39-50x35.png 50w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/com-article-images-39-288x204.png 288w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/com-article-images-39-576x407.png 576w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/com-article-images-39-339x240.png 339w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/com-article-images-39-678x479.png 678w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/com-article-images-39-373x264.png 373w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/com-article-images-39-746x527.png 746w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/com-article-images-39-691x488.png 691w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/com-article-images-39-1382x977.png 1382w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/com-article-images-39-973x688.png 973w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/com-article-images-39-1946x1376.png 1946w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/com-article-images-39-1048x741.png 1048w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/com-article-images-39-478x338.png 478w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/com-article-images-39-956x676.png 956w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/com-article-images-39-516x365.png 516w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/com-article-images-39-1032x730.png 1032w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/com-article-images-39-680x481.png 680w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/com-article-images-39-1360x961.png 1360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 365px) 100vw, 365px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>A brand pyramid consists of five tiers, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Features and attributes<\/li><li>Functional benefits<\/li><li>Emotional benefits<\/li><li>Brand persona &amp; core values<\/li><li>Brand essence<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>The primary benefit of <strong>brand pyramids<\/strong> is that they give clarity to the very essence of the brand. <strong>Brand pyramids<\/strong> help businesses understand their goals and purposes better, and as a result, clarify the company&#8217;s brand strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many companies now turn to specialized <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sortlist.com\/branding\/dubai-ae\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">branding agencies<\/a> to help them with such important business tasks.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Build a Brand Pyramid<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A marketing team can&#8217;t determine its brand&#8217;s external appearance without profound internal research.

As a brand, Disney wanted to be perceived as entertaining and lovable, so Mickey proved to be the best brand personality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Brand Essence<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sortlist.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/screenshot-2021-12-28-at-13.45.04.png\" alt=\"brand essence\" class=\"wp-image-6598\" width=\"566\" height=\"96\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/screenshot-2021-12-28-at-13.45.04.png 1006w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/screenshot-2021-12-28-at-13.45.04-768x131.png 768w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/screenshot-2021-12-28-at-13.45.04-50x9.png 50w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/screenshot-2021-12-28-at-13.45.04-288x49.png 288w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/screenshot-2021-12-28-at-13.45.04-576x98.png 576w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/screenshot-2021-12-28-at-13.45.04-339x58.png 339w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/screenshot-2021-12-28-at-13.45.04-678x116.png 678w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/screenshot-2021-12-28-at-13.45.04-373x64.png 373w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/screenshot-2021-12-28-at-13.45.04-746x128.png 746w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/screenshot-2021-12-28-at-13.45.04-691x118.png 691w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/screenshot-2021-12-28-at-13.45.04-973x166.png 973w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/screenshot-2021-12-28-at-13.45.04-478x82.png 478w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/screenshot-2021-12-28-at-13.45.04-956x163.png 956w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/screenshot-2021-12-28-at-13.45.04-516x88.png 516w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/screenshot-2021-12-28-at-13.45.04-680x116.png 680w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 566px) 100vw, 566px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>At the top of the pyramid, there&#8217;s brand essence. Brand essence is considered the core component of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sortlist.com\/blog\/brand-positioning-case-study\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">brand positioning<\/a>. It&#8217;s described as the most important characteristic of a brand, the one to create an emotional response in customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ultimate goal of building a <strong>brand pyramid<\/strong> is to provide the brand essence. That&#8217;s something early-stage companies should keep an eye on because if your current strategy isn&#8217;t clarifying the brand values, you&#8217;ll need a new <strong>brand pyramid<\/strong>. Brand essence is the fundament of success; you know your customers feel the brand essence when you evoke positive emotions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brand essence isn&#8217;t necessarily something that&#8217;s repeatedly articulated. It&#8217;s something felt by the customers when interacting with a business. In other words, brand&#8217;s essence is the brand&#8217;s DNA. Let&#8217;s have a look at some of the most successful brands&#8217; core characteristics:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Apple &#8211; Simple Elegance<\/li><li>Coca-Cola &#8211; Happiness<\/li><li>BMW &#8211; Driving Pleasure<\/li><li>Aston Martin &#8211; Reserved in the Road Trip<\/li><li>Volvo &#8211; Safety<\/li><li>Disney &#8211; Magical<\/li><li>Adidas &#8211; Relentless<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Apple&#8217;s Brand Essence<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Apple&#8217;s brand essence is Simple Elegance. The simplicity and elegance of Apple&#8217;s products are always felt by its consumers. The company promises to &#8220;think differently&#8221; to improve the lives of its customers by developing next-generation technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sortlist.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/flat-lay-composition-with-apple-macbook-air-silver-ipad-mini-4-and-iphone-6s-on-wooden-background.jpeg\" alt=\"apple products branding\" class=\"wp-image-6591\" width=\"563\" height=\"375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/flat-lay-composition-with-apple-macbook-air-silver-ipad-mini-4-and-iphone-6s-on-wooden-background.jpeg 1000w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/flat-lay-composition-with-apple-macbook-air-silver-ipad-mini-4-and-iphone-6s-on-wooden-background-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/flat-lay-composition-with-apple-macbook-air-silver-ipad-mini-4-and-iphone-6s-on-wooden-background-50x33.jpeg 50w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/flat-lay-composition-with-apple-macbook-air-silver-ipad-mini-4-and-iphone-6s-on-wooden-background-288x192.jpeg 288w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/flat-lay-composition-with-apple-macbook-air-silver-ipad-mini-4-and-iphone-6s-on-wooden-background-576x384.jpeg 576w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/flat-lay-composition-with-apple-macbook-air-silver-ipad-mini-4-and-iphone-6s-on-wooden-background-339x226.jpeg 339w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/flat-lay-composition-with-apple-macbook-air-silver-ipad-mini-4-and-iphone-6s-on-wooden-background-678x452.jpeg 678w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/flat-lay-composition-with-apple-macbook-air-silver-ipad-mini-4-and-iphone-6s-on-wooden-background-373x249.jpeg 373w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/flat-lay-composition-with-apple-macbook-air-silver-ipad-mini-4-and-iphone-6s-on-wooden-background-746x498.jpeg 746w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/flat-lay-composition-with-apple-macbook-air-silver-ipad-mini-4-and-iphone-6s-on-wooden-background-691x461.jpeg 691w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/flat-lay-composition-with-apple-macbook-air-silver-ipad-mini-4-and-iphone-6s-on-wooden-background-973x649.jpeg 973w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/flat-lay-composition-with-apple-macbook-air-silver-ipad-mini-4-and-iphone-6s-on-wooden-background-478x319.jpeg 478w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/flat-lay-composition-with-apple-macbook-air-silver-ipad-mini-4-and-iphone-6s-on-wooden-background-956x638.jpeg 956w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/flat-lay-composition-with-apple-macbook-air-silver-ipad-mini-4-and-iphone-6s-on-wooden-background-516x344.jpeg 516w, https:\/\/www.sortlist-test.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/12\/flat-lay-composition-with-apple-macbook-air-silver-ipad-mini-4-and-iphone-6s-on-wooden-background-680x454.jpeg 680w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 563px) 100vw, 563px\" \/><figcaption>From <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecoldwire.com\/why-is-apple-so-expensive\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">The Cold Wire<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The reason why I chose to start with Apple is that the essence of Apple&#8217;s brand has had an amazing impact throughout the years. Apple focuses on three different goals: Simplicity, Difference, and Innovation. One of the main reasons Apple stands out in the ocean of device manufacturers is that the company stays true to its standards stated in the brand essence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apple has a strong focus on the latest and up-to-date technologies including artificial intelligence. But these innovations can sometimes be hard to understand; so, Apple is always trying to keep the perfect balance between progress and maintaining simplicity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Manufacturing giant wants to make these technologies accessible and easy to use for everyone. Moreover, the company often takes unique approaches to create a different value. That includes not only the product design but also introducing an exclusive operating system (iOS) for iPhones. This is how Apple aims to realize three different brand ideas at the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Most Important Characteristics of Brand Essence<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As you can observe above, different businesses have different essences of their brand. However, there are some parameters every strong brand essence statements share.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The brand essence is the soul of the brand. It can evoke strong emotions in customers. Without these emotions, the business or a brand feels empty, so it&#8217;s hard for a customer to relate to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A strong essence statement is unique. It allows a business to stand out in competition and successfully reach its target audience. It&#8217;s never about finding the statement that&#8217;s better than others. Instead, it&#8217;s all about finding the one that best suits your business and its purpose on the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The essence of the brand isn&#8217;t something you simply decide to have. You build it based on your understanding of the brand and the relationship with the customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The essence statement is constant. Unlike other brand symbols, such are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sortlist.com\/blog\/choosing-a-brand-name\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">names and logos<\/a>, the essence of your brand can&#8217;t be changed anytime. It should be sustainable, making it possible for your brand to be distinguished from others even if you decide to change the logo or the name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Based on the above discussions, it&#8217;s safe to say building a <strong>brand pyramid<\/strong> is essential to your business. Brand pyramid helps you understand your business better and allows you to define the essence of the brand. And building a brand essence is the key to success.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A brand pyramid is used to answer fundamental questions about a brand.
