POSITIONING EYE CANDY - OR THE MEDIUM IS REALLY NOT THE MESSAGE

Just a few weeks ago, we made the assertion in these Dispatches that "Added Stuff Does NOT Equal Added Value." Following along that same line of thinking, this week we take a look at some of the Pro's and Con's of using a new or different medium to portray the brand positioning statement. There is definitely a trend these days toward moving away from the traditional, "classic" brand positioning statement - expressed in short paragraphs - toward going with a clever icon or "structure" to fill in. But, as you'll see, our take is that no matter how clever or eye-catching the format, it's the content that simply must measure up.
