Brand Purpose and Purpose-Driven Marketing

With the changing and transforming world, the relationship between consumers and brands began to change and transform. Nowadays, it is not enough for brands to produce quality products or provide quality service for consumers. Now, consumers expect brands to be sensitive to social, ecological, economic, or health problems. This situation has enabled the two concepts to become important and popular today: brand purpose and purpose-driven marketing. Brand purpose is the “why” the brand exists. And purpose-driven marketing is a marketing trend that aims to connect brands with their consumers through common social goals. It seems that the concepts of brand purpose and purpose-driven marketing will be more common in marketing communication. The notion of purpose will change the commercial dynamics of brands in the same way that digitalization transformed the way people buy and sell stuff. This is exactly why purpose is the new digital.
