Infusing your Brand into your Workplace - The Client Experience

In 2021, The Boston Consulting Group (BCG) and Google teamed up for a study that brought together over 100 big names from marketing and IT, covering both B2B and B2B2C companies.

What they found was eye-opening. Brand marketing packs the same punch in the B2B world as it does for everyday consumers. But despite this revelation, it seems like B2B companies are still holding back on putting their money into brand marketing. In fact, nearly a quarter of businesses surveyed said they spend less than 20% of their marketing budget on building their brand.

And get this: a study in 2022 looked across eight countries and highlighted how branding isn’t getting the attention it deserves. But there’s no doubt about it - the businesses that really commit to their branding are miles ahead of those who don’t.

What Does Your Business Space Say to Prospective Clients?

Your workplace is not merely a space - it is the embodiment of your brand, your narrative, and your values. The moment a client steps into this space, their decision is influenced by the emotional resonance, the alignment of values, and the consistency of your brand ethos across all fronts.

But What Does it Mean to Infuse your Brand into your Workspace?

It goes beyond the display of your logo. It's about crafting an environment that leaves a lasting positive mark on your clients’ perceptions. In essence it’s about providing an actual visual and sensory experience of your core values.

Branding Needs to be Present in Every Aspect of the Workplace

It's an expression that transcends the visual, engaging the senses, embodying your values, and narrating your story - all while forging deeper connections with your clientele.

Highlight Your Brand Consistency

When envisaging design and build updates to your client-facing areas, consider whether your workplace design is consistent with your branded materials. Forbes highlights that a consistent brand presentation can amplify revenue by up to 23%. Your workspace, therefore, should be an extension of your brand narrative, reflecting your industry, your culture, and your values.

Does Your Space Showcase the Pinnacle of your Business?  

In an era where hybrid B2B transactions gain momentum, leverage your physical space to showcase aspects of your business that digital platforms can't capture. Let your space foster an emotional connection and demonstrate values that resonate with your clients.

Tell Your Business Story to Connect Your Clients

Your workspace should narrate your journey, invite emotional engagement, and reflect your values. In a marketplace where buyers often find it challenging to discern between suppliers, let your workspace reflect your core values - be it sustainability, wellness, or community engagement.

Summing Up

Brand consistency is not just beneficial; it's imperative, potentially boosting your revenue by up to 23%.

The example of Studio DB's GEN3 at Sixty Six Studio illustrates the power of design to not only mirror heritage but to also pioneer the future of brand interaction and client engagement.
