Even in such an atypical year, this figure represents a 9% growth, compared to the previous year.<\/h4>\n\n<p>This should not be a surprise. Brands are shortcuts for decision making. They are a promise in the mind and heart of the consumer, formed throughout every interaction. In a study on brand trust\u00b2, 75% of people said they preferred their trusted brand over another that suddenly becomes hot and trendy, and 66% prefer their brand of trust even if it is technologically inferior compared to another competing brand.<\/p>\n\n<p>In a chaotic world, people don\u2019t want to make more choices, they want the confidence to make the right choice. A McKinsey study\u00b3 revealed that even in online commerce, where consumers can jump from one store to another with just one click, most of them prefer not to take any chances and resort to their preferred brands.<\/p>\n\n<p>In the methodology used by Interbrand \u2014 which was a pioneer in this type of study and has improved it for more than 3 decades \u2014 two factors used to measure the value of brands are especially relevant in the eyes of a type designer:<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2817\" height=\"636\" src=\"https:\/\/fabiohaagtype.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Article.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7799\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fabiohaagtype.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Article.png 2817w, https:\/\/fabiohaagtype.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Article-300x68.png 300w, https:\/\/fabiohaagtype.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Article-1024x231.png 1024w, https:\/\/fabiohaagtype.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Article-768x173.png 768w, https:\/\/fabiohaagtype.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Article-1536x347.png 1536w, https:\/\/fabiohaagtype.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Article-2048x462.png 2048w, https:\/\/fabiohaagtype.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Article-150x34.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2817px) 100vw, 2817px\" \/><figcaption>\u201cBest Global Brands 2020 Report\u201d, Interbrand, 2020<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n<p>First, <em>Distinction:<\/em> the existence of uniquely ownable signature assets and experiences that are recognised and remembered by customers and difficult to replicate. Then, <em>Coherence:<\/em> the degree to which customer interactions, whilst varying depending on channel and context, remain authentic to the brand\u2019s narrative and feel. A custom typeface, if it has a distinctive expressiveness and is used consistently, embraces these two qualities for a brand to generate value.<\/p>\n\n<p>We have lived in a world saturated with communication for decades. So the ability to differentiate yourself visually through any written word becomes a major competitive advantage. When, in addition to being distinctive, it is used with coherence \u2014 consistently across all touchpoints \u2014, with time and exposure, a typographic identity is reached: we know which brand is speaking without its logo being present.<\/p>\n\n<p>In fact, the logo itself is losing its strength \u2014 in the interface of several apps, for example, it doesn\u2019t even appear. Its relevance has migrated to other elements. In addition to classics such as color and typography, today brands invest in icon sets, sound identity, style of illustration, photography, verbal tone of voice, proprietary fragrances and even in the animation of how the buttons on an interface react to touch. All distinct and proprietary, coherent with each other, generating value for the brand.<\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">While many believe that these are details, the brands that invest in perfecting each opportunity of interaction are those that reach the top of the ranking of the most valuable in the world.<\/h4>\n\n<p><em>1 \u201cBest Global Brands 2020 Report\u201d, Interbrand, 2020<br\/>2 \u201cTrust Barometer Special Report\u201d, Edelman, 2019<br\/>3 \u201cOnline buyers pay particular attention to brands&#8221;, McKinsey &amp; Company, 2019.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two trillion dollars.
