Grab your notepad again and jot down some ideas for yours. Here is a step by step guide for you.

1. Identify your target audience: So that your brand message resonates you need to understand who your target audience is. Consider factors like demographics, their interests, location, salary, pain points, and motivations. Speak to their needs and desires, don't just list product features.
2. What is your unique value proposition: This differentiates you from competitors. In the words of Jack Trout 'differentiate or die'. You UVP is the reason tribe should choose your product or service over others and more importantly keep coming back for more. To determine your UVP identify the benefits and advantages that your product or service provides. How they solve your tribe' problems or address their needs and desires?
3. Crafting your brand message: Once you have a clear understanding of your target audience and UVP, it’s time to craft your brand message. Your message should be clear, concise, and compelling. It should communicate your unique value proposition in a way that resonates with your target audience. Your message should also reflect your brand’s personality and tone; whether it’s playful, professional, or authoritative.
4. Test and refine your message: Once you have crafted your message, it’s essential to test it with your target audience to see how it resonates. You can conduct surveys or focus groups to get feedback and refine your message based on the results. Believe me I have done this more than once or twice. This is because as you get more involved in what your comapny does you will realise the reality of who your tribe actuall is made up of. YOu then need to have the confidence to test and then iterate.
5. Consistency is key: To ensure that your brand message resonates with your tribe, it’s essential to be consistent in your messaging across all channels, including your website, social media, advertising, and customer service. This consistency helps to reinforce your brand’s values, personality, and messaging.

Writing a strong brand message requires a deep understanding of your target audience, a clear and compelling unique value proposition, and a message that resonates with your tribe. With these steps in mind, you can create a brand message that sets you apart from your competitors and connects with your tribe.
