The diagram designed by Digital Marketing Mentor, is about how to build a powerful brand that stands out from the crowd . It's called the Brand Resonance Model , and it is a super useful way to think about turning your customers into your biggest fans.

Think it of it as building a friendship: you start by getting to know someone , then you build a relationship , eventually you have a deep and loyal bond. The model has 4 steps that mirror this process , and each step is built on the last one.




Brand Identity: Who are you?

This is the very first step- just like a meeting. It's about getting your customers to notice you and for who you are.

You are trying to answer the question- WHO ARE YOU?

What you do: You focus on your brand stand out . You use a catchy name, a memorable logo, and a clear brand identity.


The Goal: For people to hear your brand name and immediately know what you do. For example, the brand Apple, you think of the MacBook, Iphone, Ipad etc.




Brand Meaning: What do you stand for?

Once people know you exist, they want to know more. This is where you explain what makes you unique and what your brand is all about . You are trying to answer the question: WHAT ARE YOU?


What you do: You talk about your brand's unique qualities and what you represent . This includes your products' features, but also the feeling it creates (like joy, luxury, or reliability) and the values you stand for.


The Goal: For people to understand the benefits of your product and to connect with your brand on a deeper , more emotional level.




Brand Response: How do I feel about you?

This is when your customers start to form opinions about your brand . It's the point where they decide if they like you , if they trust you, and if they think you are worth their time.


You are trying to answer the question: WHAT ABOUT YOU?



What you do: You focus on building a good reputation. You get great customer reviews, you handle any problems well, and you make sure your customers feel happy and satisfied.


The Goal: For people to have a positive feeling about your brand to see it as credible and high quality . This is where trust is truly earned.




Brand Resonance: Let's be friends forever!


This is the ultimate stage. It's when your customers become truly loyal to your brand . They don't just buy from you , they're emotionally connected to you and will choose you over anyone else.


You are trying to answer the question: WHAT ABOUT YOU AND ME?



What you do: You build a community around your brand . You reward yourself loyal customers , you encourage them to share their love for your product , and you make them feel like they are part of a special club.


The Goal: For people to not only buy from you , but to actively recommend you to others . This kind of customer loyalty is incredibly valuable and is the highest level of brand success.




Conclusion

In a nutshell, the diagram is a roadmap for turning a stranger into a loyal fan . You start with awareness, then move to understanding , then to build a positive feeling and finally, to creating a deep lasting connection . It's all about building a relationship , not just selling a product.

Hey, Anisha,
Thanks for sharing these steps into the customer's journey and sales funnel. I must admit this is one of the most important things I have been, and I still ignore for some reason. Maybe because it sounds and looks scientific to me? How then do I build this process into a website?

I remember someone here on the WA taking me through the elements I need on my website's homepage for the same reasons. But after I followed the steps suggested, he was not able to comment anymore whether I did it right or not, no matter how I tried to notify him.

Again, thanks for sharing. But I still wonder how to actually make it work on a real website. May you give some examples? Are you following the same examples, and any success as a result?

Hey John,

I get you — funnels can seem a bit “scientific,” but really it’s just guiding someone step-by-step from curious to clicking that buy/subscribe button.

To make it work on a real website, you can think of it like:

Hook them first – Big, clear headline that speaks to their problem.

Build trust – Show proof like reviews, photos, or quick demos.

Make the next step obvious – A clear button or form in the right places.

When it’s set up well, you do see results — more clicks, more sign-ups, more sales — because people aren’t left guessing what to do next.

My partner’s actually in the office today working on funnels for his company, so I can message him and see if he’s got a quick example or two that’s been working well for them.
