What does it actually mean to have a ‘quirky’ brand, and how does it work for some brands? That is what we are talking about today. This episode focuses on the letter Q in our branding series, exploring "quirky" as a powerful branding strategy. I argue that infusing your brand with a playful, unexpected essence can set you apart in a crowded market. Quirkiness goes beyond surface-level traits; it represents a brand's essence, tone, and connection to the audience, making brands more relatable. There is a striking balance between quirkiness and professionalism, and I want to stress the importance of authenticity in branding. Reflect on your brand's identity and emotional connections to develop a distinctive, impactful presence.
