Involve your fans

CO-CREATE THE BRAND WITH YOUR FANS
(© 2009 Matti Helelä)
Target audience activation
Is the main consideration
Inspire the fans to live the brand
Creating it with you hand in hand
The brand is created in the customer’s mind
Business is the right kind
When you live the brand in everyday life
And the brand is truthful in the customer’s eyes
