Summary
You don't get to decide if your brand is premium – your customer does. In this episode of The Brand Marketing Show, Catherine Langman unpacks how the premium verdict is actually reached: why "different and better" both have to be true, why heritage can beat innovation, why the same product can be premium to one buyer and overpriced to another, and the most expensive mistake founders make when they try to "become premium" by charging more. Plus: why the storytelling in your marketing is an asset worth investing in – not an expensive chore – and what actually attracts the considered buyer a premium brand is built for. For premium eCommerce founders who know they're different and better – but need the market to reach the verdict.
