We may forget the favorite color of our lover, but the yellow legs of the letter M will always remind us of Mcdonalds’. That’s the classic example of brand consistency.

Brand consistency involves building a distinctive identity among the audience. It involves assembling elements that, when configured together, point to a singular brand, without confusion. In the current times, with millions of brands competing in the same run, it is mandatory to build unique attributes that are relatable to the audience and specific to the brand.

Brand consistency is the stepping stone to creating a loyal customer-company relationship. It is just not about the color palette, advertising strategies, logo, and social media interactions; rather, brand consistency is abiding by the goals and visions of the company that aligns with the demand of its consumers.

Statistics note an increase of 10-20% in the ROI of brands that design branding strategies coherently. A survey estimated that 90% of consumers stick to brands that follow a regular pattern of marketing and advertising, both digitally and practically.

Recently, in 2021, Calm, the mobile application that helps its users with meditation and sleep routines, stood shoulder-to-shoulder with Naomi Osaka’s resolution to discontinue her participation in the French Open.

The tennis player cited mental health problems as a reason for such a consequential decision. Not only Calm hailed her decision but also chose to reimburse the fine of $15,000 imposed on her for missing a post-match conference meet. This is how a brand that aims to empower mindfulness stands for its people by advocating its principles of a healthy mental balance.

Another classic example is Apple, the tech company. 90% of Apple users switch to a better version of their gadgets in less than 30 days, without giving a thought to other brands. Although Apple mobile phones and iPads are among the most expensive digital devices, it is the impact of a compelling user experience, efficient services, and remarkable advertising strategies that retain their customers.
