Everyman

Every day, we get bombarded with ads or brand messages vying to capture our attention. Most of them get deflected by our unconscious minds and hold little relevance or appeal to our daily lives. But at the same time, a select few of these messages get through to us, and we may even feel a sense of personal identity with them.

The way your brand communicates is critical. In the search to communicate better, every brand discovers a need for a personality and a voice.

One interesting way to view it is through the lens of archetypes. Brands can anchor their communications to enduring personas or profiles that feed into the human experience allowing consumers to identify narratives and symbolism quickly and effectively.

Brand Archetypes Brand Archetypes were a concept introduced by Carl Jung, who believed that they were models of people, behaviours, or personalities. Archetypes, he suggested, were inborn tendencies that play a role in influencing human behaviour.
