IntroductionITME is the first private education institute to start a Marine Engineering discipline in eastern India. In addition to Marine Engineering degree courses a host of other B.Tech, Bachelor and Masters Degree courses are also offered in ITME.

A decision has been made to change the product brand of ITME to NITMAS, i.e., Neotia Institute of Technology Management and Science. This has been done for the following reasons:

◗ To establish the change in management and ownership

◗ To give more importance to the rest of the engineering and non engineering courses apart from Marine Engineering

◗ To pave the way for introducing management courses

◗ To create a stronger brand by associating the institute with the Ambuja Neotia group.

Explaining NITMAS personality traits through brand archetype model The term “archetypes”, as it is used in marketing today, has its origins in Carl Gustav Jung’s theories. He believed that universal, mythic characters— archetypes—reside within the collective unconscious mind of people the world over. Archetypal images represent fundamental human desires and evoke deep emotions. There are 12 archetypes which symbolizes a basic human need, aspiration or motivation.They’re a way for us to better understand how consumers connect with brands.Based on the above personality traits of NITMAS, 4 Brand archetypes have been identified which are as shown below.

Brand IdentityBrand identity is the total proposition that a brand makes to consumers - the promise it makes. It may consist of features and attributes, benefits, performance, quality, service support, and the values that the brand possesses. The brand can be viewed as a product, a personality, a set of values, and a position it occupies in people’s minds. Brand identity is everything the company wants the brand to be seen as.

Explaining brand identity through Kapferer’s brand identity prismIn his brand identity prism Kapferer identifies six aspects of brand identity. These aspects can only come to life when the brand communicates with the consumer. Strong brands are capable of weaving all aspects into an effective whole. The six aspects are explained below.

◗ Physique – These are the set of physical features which are evoked in people’s minds when the brand name is mentioned. These are tangibles, actionable and visible like the shape of the coke bottle, and the marquee of Mercedes Benz.

◗ Personality – Unique human characteristics and trait that are embodied in the brand.

◗ Culture – The system of values and basic principles on which the brand has to base its behaviour. That part of the brand from where it draws its inspiration. Culture is the direct link between the brand and the organisation.

◗ Relationship – How consumers treat the brand viz. as lovers, as mother of a child, as a confidante. It defines the way the brand behaves with others. Apple exudes friendliness, IBM orderliness and Nike provocation.

◗ Reflection – This aspect makes reference to the stereotypical user of the brand. It explains what kind of people we perceive use it. This provides an outward mirror to the consumer about the brand for instance the users are often being identified as young people, show offs and outdoorsy people.

◗ Self image – Explains how the user sees him-self or feels while using the brand. For example, research shows that Lacoste users see themselves as members of a sporty club even if they do not actively play any sport.

Brand PositioningBrand Positioning can be defined as creating a brand offer in such a manner that it occupies a distinctive place and value in the target customer’s mind. Effective Brand Positioning is identifying and communicating a brand’s uniqueness, differentiation and verifiable value.A great brand positioning idea needs to be compelling to the consumer in a fresh, differentiated way. To help in getting to a fresh positioning idea we have used a positioning model that integrates functional and emotional benefits of the brand.

It is vitally important to create brand positioning ideas that reflect both the brand’s identity and its value proposition. But the brand positioning idea must be a synthesis of the key insights in each area so that the brand reflects and addresses each of these vital inputs.

The “NITMAS” Positioning

The positioning of NITMAS “succeed” is about having a successful career. The positioning concept derives its existence from the institution motto, Curiosity, Inspiration, Transformation which would enable a student to succeed in life. In today’s world a successful career defines a successful life. NITMAS guides you towards success by instilling curiosity and inspiring students to harness their potential thereby transforming them into successful individuals. This is done through world class infrastructure and expert faculties which helps in career development and a sprawling green campus and an interactive student life which helps in personal development. The positioning of NITMAS also identifies the one particular thing which appeals most to prospective students and which we are actually trying to sell i.e the opportunity to succeed in life.

Page 13: Nitmas brand manual 16.05.12

13BRAND & CORPORATE COMMUNICATIONS ~ AMBUJA REALTY

Brand Communication Strategy The communication strategy for NITMAS is about establishing its positioning strongly through every communication media that is used. As mentioned before the positioning of NITMAS is what we are actually selling. Therefore it is essential to harp upon this concept of “success” consistently across all communication medium. However there is also a need to talk about the ingredients which would result in transforming any student into a successful individual, namely the infrastructure and the expert faculties. It should also be noted that since NITMAS is a residential institute, there is a need to project the interactive student life in the campus. The ideal way to do this would be to project the student community as one single family to increase the bonding and feeling of belongingness to the institute. This will result in each student becoming a brand ambassador for the institute.Primary communication: Positioning concept – SucceedSecondary communication: Huge campus, infrastructure, faculty, student bonding

Message Tone The following message and tone should be followed in case of every NITMAS communications in order to establish a favourable perception in the market:

TAGLINE

CURIOSITY INSPIRATIONTRANSFORMATION

The three fundamental consideration of NITMAS corporate tagline are:

• Theonebigideawithwhichyouwanttoassociateyourcompany/brandinthemindoftheconsumers/market,anessencewhichdefinesbenefitsof the usage of product/service

• Graphicdisposition : Should appear as corporate signature but in the form of a seperate unit (Stand Alone). Not necessary to appear with the logo every time as it has given a special identity to put more highlight on the”Big Idea”. Therefore the tagline is different from the orthodox one.

• Shelf-life:Notcampaigndependant,butpositioningdrivenandstrategic,thereforeashelf-lifeofminimumfiveyears.

Using other fontsIn the rare instance that a font becomes part of a graphical illustration in a campaign, it may become necessary to use a font other than AERO &

FUTURA. In these cases, always ensure you are using a font which aesthetically matches with two corporate fonts specified above. In those cases one must

use either Aero or Futura in body copy along with other parts of communication such as address, contact no. website address etc.

Do not mix more than two fonts in a single design. All types of communication for a single campaign should have same fonts with similar treatment. Other

aspects of design are discussed later.

For example: For a poster design on Annual fest the theme and concept may demand a stylish/funky font for caption. But in that case one must use Aero / Futura in body copy along with other parts

of communication such as address, contact no. website address etc. Also ensure that the font matches aesthetically with corporate fonts.
