Strip the logo. Would anyone know it's you?
Strip the logo. Would anyone know it's you? Audit six asset classes — colour, shape, language, sound, character, ritual — and find out whether you're building memory for your brand or for the category.
The blind-date test: strip your logo from your ad, pack, site and deck. Would anyone know it's you? Score each asset 0–2: 0 = generic, 1 = somewhat ours, 2 = unmistakably ours.
Score each asset class 0–2: generic, somewhat ours, unmistakably ours.

The recall test: debranded ads, five seconds each, ten category buyers. Under 60% correct attribution means you're funding the category's memory, not yours.
Illustrative figures, not a client outcome.
