Self-Expressive Brands: Building the Brand By Enabling Customer Self-Expression

Mon, 03/31/2008 - 01:00 — admin


Burgeoning trends in mass customization and do-it-yourself, as well as user-generated content on blogs, YouTube, and social networks, reflect consumers’ growing interest in brands and products that reflect their unique personalities. Here are two examples of companies that leverage consumer interest in brands that enable self-expression.

Scion hopes to attract “younger, stylish drivers”  by hopping on the social network bandwagon with ScionSpeak, a website enabling Scion owners to express themselves by creating their “personal ‘coats of arms’.”

Scion owners can choose from “hundreds of symbols, all designed by a professional graffiti artist,” to create their crest. Then, if they choose, they can pay to have it rendered by an auto-shop.

Self-expression with a generous dose of irreverence is the core equity of Durtbagz ---bags that purchasers can customize with witty sayings masquerading as ‘street signs,' such as “Don’t Drive Durnk.” Website copy informs potential purchasers:

“some bagz are offered in multiple colors, some are not. it's what we've got at the moment. we only print 12 of each sign; WHEN WE'RE OUT, WE'RE OUT. that's how we roll.”

Erin Atherton,  head bag lady and owner of Durtbagz, helpfully points out that Durtbagz bags can be used for overnights, shopping, or to carry around a severed head. The “Just Dust” page offers “all you durtbagz” an opportunity to “speak your minds, assuming you have one.” The Durtbag who posts the best ‘durt’ could win a free Durtbagz bag.

“Durty Laundry” is the company blog where
Erin recounts imagined interviews with celebrities such as Amy Winehouse and Avril Lavigne, as well as the day-to-day challenges of growing her own company. The blog is authentic, funny and down-to-earth, which should resonate with a young target audience and reinforce her brand.

Is the desire for self-expression a core attribute of your target audience? Strengthen your relationship with them by providing opportunities for them to express themselves and make the brand uniquely their own.
