At Burbar Consulting, we understand that too many companies are overly concerned with their brand and how people perceive them. While this is understandable, it can be misleading. Companies should primarily be interested in selling their products and services. Many entrepreneurs wrongly believe that they can work on their brand and then it will drive sales. However, they have it backwards. A brand drives sales only when it is a true brand, meaning it represents something meaningful to people.

The Importance of Selling First


A strong brand like Coca-Cola can drive sales just by displaying their logo. However, most companies don't have such powerful brands. For these companies, the focus must be on selling. Very few companies have brands so strong that they alone drive sales, and even those brands reached their status after decades of hard-core selling. It's the process of selling that creates strong brands, not the other way around.

Building a Brand Through Sales


In today's era of social media, where image seems to be everything, it's crucial to remember that the ultimate measure of success is whether we are selling our products or not. Focusing too much on brand image without solid sales can lead to business stagnation. A brand becomes powerful when it stands for something significant in the minds of consumers, and this is achieved through consistent and effective selling.


Practical Steps for Effective Selling


To create a strong brand, companies must engage in persistent selling activities. This includes understanding the needs and desires of their target audience, developing compelling sales pitches, and consistently delivering value. Companies should leverage various sales channels, utilize data analytics to refine their approaches, and constantly seek feedback to improve their sales tactics.
