About this course

In the course "Brand Building Strategies", we start with the most important question: what value do you want your brand to leave in people’s minds? Ziad Aladdin explains that building a brand is not just about a logo or a color; it is a clear approach to discovering value, shaping the narrative, acquiring customers, and maintaining financial sustainability. You will explore the meaning of brand value and how it turns into trust, preference, and an emotional connection with the audience. You will also study brand-building strategies that help you make more consistent decisions across messaging, offers, and the customer experience. You will also learn through interviews with brand-building experts, including Alfredo Fraile, Executive Director of Business Development at Saffron Brand Consultants, and Benji Wiedemann, Co-Founder and Executive Creative Director at Wiedemann Lampe. Through these interviews, you will understand how branding concepts are applied in real situations, and how specialists think about value, differentiation, and storytelling when building a strong brand. The course also takes you into design thinking as a practical way to understand customers’ needs before shaping the solution or message. You will compare different strategies in real-world contexts and learn how to recognize the differences between a brand that only sells a product and a brand that builds a sustainable relationship. In the practical application section, you will practice writing an Onliness Statement that explains why the customer chooses you, who you create value for, and what makes you different. These skills will help you evaluate any brand around you and give you clearer language when speaking with marketing teams, designers, or business owners. By the end of the course, branding will become a tool you can use in your work, small projects, marketing, or in developing a personal idea you want to present with confidence and clarity.
