Brand Strategy & Digital Banking with Product Innovation Masterclass

Brand strategy, digital banking and product innovation in one build — behavioural insight to business growth for banks facing disruptors on every side.

The programme

Banks bracing for the next wave of digital disruption tend to fix technology first and brand last — then wonder why customers cannot tell them apart from the challenger down the street. This masterclass connects the two: strategic branding built on behavioural insight, the shift from branch and phone banking to digital, and a disciplined process for new product development with the customer at its centre. Participants hear directly from industry practice on using new technologies to optimise performance, marketing a genuine USP and driving new leads year on year. The cohort works through brand, digital and product-innovation strategy as one connected build.

What you will do

Build a brand strategy from behavioural insights, and connect it directly to business growth.
Create impactful content and stories across digital channels, backed by a working digital marketing and branding strategy.
Manage the shift from branch and phone banking to digital, with tools and techniques your organisation can adopt.
Put digital, social media and web analytics to work on branding and promotion decisions.
Run a new product development process that keeps the customer at the heart of product management.
Assess the market and competition and choose between product innovation and marketing strategy with evidence.
Secure multi-departmental commitment to the customer experience strategy.
