Stefan, I totally agree with you. I am going further with the subject and I want to start a discussion about this fact (strategy/branding/design), related to the Romania's companies. There were some previous threads about this thing, but not clearly focused on the real fact. I am always facing with this scenario: a marketing manager from a company calls me and says "I want a website." BUT! There are neither corporate nor brand identity implemented, there is not even a representative logo or whatever. About naming, they use the name of the company as a brand name - in the 90% most of the cases - but they are not using it so because of the result of their strategy. In fact, here, the real brand strategy comes after the sales are somehow high, the website comes much too late, it is not intended to be the digital extension of their brand from the beginning, and it comes because the concurent companies have one. And here I am, telling them the benefits of a strategy for their brand, and all related to it, the benefits from a corporate identity implementation, and so on... They listen, agree, excited about the idea and after some days, they call me to do just a website because their sales are doing great even without a website... ;-) And it is not a budget problem for the most of the companies I am dealing with. Is it hard to accept others doing their strategy, is it ignorrance, or it is just a matter of disinterest? What do you think about this?
