What is audio branding?

Audio branding is the process of getting instant brand recognition through audio devices. In other words, it is a deliverable audio solution that conveys a brand’s identity. These devices enable brands to establish a relationship between their identity and their consumers, which has direct effects on brand recognition and ROI.

The goals of audio branding:

Embody a company’s traits and message

‍Forming a comprehensive understanding of a brand is crucial to developing any audio branding solution. Our approach entails researching the characteristics that best represent a brand in the eyes of a consumer. We often supplement this process with science based research to promote factual evidence to support our innovative ideas. This enables Musikvergnuegen to develop pioneering sound logos, while not neglecting market research and consumer focus, helping brands maintain their image into the future and not only for a short advertising cycle.

‍Establish pattern recognition

‍An audio solution is more than just a beautiful melody. It is essential for any audio brand to be “sticky.” Pattern recognition promotes a sonic logo's memorability and it helps consumers to develop key mental heuristics, such as the familiarity heuristic. A “sticky” melody facilitates the connection of a brand to the consumer, flagging the brand as familiar in the subconscious of the consumer. Research has shown that familiarity increases a consumer’s prospect of making a purchase by developing positive associations with a brand. Nothing promotes familiarity like stickiness. This is relevant because consumers also demonstrate negative associations with all brands or products that convey feelings of uncertainty and unfamiliarity, which an audio mnemonic would help to eschew.

‍Create positive associations

‍Consumers live in a world full of ambiguity and endless variety, and navigating the endless options and possibilities can instill fear and frustration in the consumer’s mind. Luckily, by developing positive associations with a specific choice over any possible alternatives, we are able to navigate through the options with greater personal satisfaction. Audio branding helps consumers to develop positive associations with brands. So, when a consumer makes a choice based on positive associations linked to the brand, the user receives greater personal satisfaction than in a situation of ambiguity. This inspires the consumers to familiarize themselves with the brand, further developing greater positive associations. It creates a seemingly endless loop of consumer satisfaction and attachment to a brand.
