THE BRAND ARCHETYPES

10.

Definiton of Brand Archetypes
Archetypes are based on Swiss psychologist Carl Jung’s theory that humans have a basic tendency to use symbolism
to understand concepts. Jung identified 12 archetypes. Each of these has a powerful identity.
Each archetype has its own set of characteristics, values, attitudes and behaviors.
The advertising and marketing industry has applied that concept to create brand archetypes.
The idea is that any brand can relate to one of these 12 iconic models that help define the brand and breathe life into it.
As consumers, we connect with or relate to the personality and aspirations of the brand archetype.
They are universal and eternal and they represent our fundamental needs and desires.
And they bring us closer to the company and its products.
