In today's trust-based economy, CEO visibility has become a strategic asset that directly influences brand equity across every dimension. Be it awareness, perceived quality, associations, loyalty, or trust itself.

The choice with companies is whether they approach leadership visibility strategically, authentically, and consistently, or cede that ground to competitors who understand what's at stake.

In today's hyper-transparent and diaphanous marketplace, your CEO is no longer just running the company; they are also a public figure and so, the embodiment of your brand. The data support this claim.

The story of Coca-Cola is actually about design.

While John Pemberton created the recipe, his bookkeeper, Frank Mason Robinson, built the brand.

He named it.
He designed its logo.
He chose its colours.

And, unknowingly, he pioneered the use of colour psychology in branding.
Stay tuned for Part 2: How colour psychology can define your brand’s identity, emotions, and success.

The brands that will dominate the next decade won't be the loudest. They'll be the ones that disappear into the essential fabric of daily life: invisible, indispensable, and impossible to replace.

The paradox is that the best brands you'll encounter today are the ones you barely notice. That is, until you have to live without them.

The era of getting away with unsubstantiated promises about "sustainability" or "social impact" is over. Today vague environmental claims can actively destroy brand loyalty and purchase intentions.

To rebuild trust, brands must transition from performative gestures to data-backed proof. This would involve transparent reporting, third-party verification, robust governance, and co-creation with stakeholder.

Ultimately, the brands that move beyond the hollow allure of purpose to the enduring power of proof, who transform scepticism into genuine, long-term competitive advantage will dominate.

Welcome to the post-ESG world, where consumers have developed "purpose fatigue" after a decade of purpose-driven marketing dominating corporate narratives. Today's customers have become forensic investigators, scrutinising every claim with the intensity of a detective examining evidence.

Welcome to Thought of the Week!

Marie Kondo your designs or as Christopher Neimann says:

"Get rid of everything that is not essential to making a point."

At Dolphin Branding, we believe in being intelligently creative which ties in beautifully with Neimann's sentiments.

But we’d love to hear your thoughts on de-cluttering your designs?
How do you hone the craft of conveying your message meaningfully, where every piece fits perfectly in the bigger picture?

In today's hyper-competitive marketplace, functional benefits are no longer the differentiators.

The brands that win will be those that master the political playbook: compelling symbols, emotional resonance, tribal loyalty, and unwavering consistency.

What your are really choosing is the identity your brand helps them express and the community it helps them join.

The question every CMO should ask isn't "How do we sell more products?" but rather "How do we build a movement worth joining?" Because at the end of the day, the most powerful brands aren't just companies, they're causes.

As an avid reader of newspapers, I've realised something fascinating about politics and branding: Like political campaigns and nation brand-building, the most successful brands today aren't just selling products; they're building movements. While CMOs obsess over conversion rates and customer acquis

The generation that will control $12.8 trillion in spending power by 2030 has declared a war on conspicuous consumption. But here's the main point most brands are missing. Gen-Z isn't rejecting luxury; they're redefining it.
The revolution isn't coming, it's already here. The question isn't whether your brand will adapt, but whether it will lead or follow.
Read on and share your views.

There's an overhaul happening right now. The luxury industry, it seems, isn't evolving, but undergoing a complete re-imagination by a generation that views excess as embarrassing and authenticity as the ultimate status symbol.

Your Brand's Future Depends on This. The paradigm shift is undeniable: organisations must stop treating employee training, onboarding, and internal communications as necessary expenses and start viewing them as strategic brand investments.
Recent studies show that employee networks have 10 times more connections than company followers, and content shared by employees receives 8 times more engagement than brand-channel content.
The question isn't whether you can afford to align your workforce with your brand; it's whether you can afford not to when your competitors already understand this truth.

In your business, where do you think branding happens? Let me reframe: Where doesn't branding happen? You may picture a clean glass-walled boardroom with C-suite executives poring over graphs, numbers and branding overhaul strategies. But, in that imagination, do you include the call centres, retail
