Money Can’t Buy a Brand
But You Can Sure as Hell Build One
Here’s the bold truth: no amount of money can buy you a true brand.
You can throw all the ad money you want into a pit, but until you understand what makes your brand tick, it’s just empty noise.
Don’t get me wrong, ads will make you money, but won’t build a brand.
Building a brand is like creating the perfect coffee, every element counts, and if you don’t brew it right, no one’s going to come back for a second cup.
A brand isn’t a logo or a tagline. It’s the gut feeling people get when they hear your name. It’s that flavor of trust and familiarity. And guess what? That stuff can’t be bought.
But you can now sign up for my e-book on, “How to build a brand that stands out” now to get a 10% off on your first purchase, click here now.
And as I said, You build a brand every day, with every single interaction.
Look at Amul. They didn’t become a household name because they threw crores into advertisements. They became iconic because they understood their customers, they talked to us, not at us.
When Amul drops those clever little ads on a trending topic, you feel like they’re talking directly to you, like a friend. That’s brand, my dear stupids.
So here’s a quick recipe for brand coffee:
Know Your Audience: Stop trying to impress everyone and focus on who matters. Know their quirks, dreams, and frustrations. If you try to talk to everyone, you talk to no one.
Be Consistent: Don’t change flavors every week. Keep showing up with the same vibe, the same voice, and watch people start trusting you.
Add Value: No, not “value” like discounts. Real value – give them something they can’t ignore. Like that masala in chai that makes you want another cup.
Remember, you can’t buy loyalty, but you can brew it.
Get out there, get brewing, and make people crave what you’re offering.
Because brands aren’t born with money; they’re built with love, effort, and a whole lot of coffee powder xD.
