Building Brands Through Archetypes

 

Cult Branding was founded on Abraham Maslow’s Hierarchy of Human Needs.

Maslow’s hierarchy offers a simple framework for understanding consumer behavior: Humans have inherent needs (physiological, safety, love and belonging, esteem, and self-actualization) that they try to fulfill. And, consumer behavior is motivated by the fulfillment of some combination of these needs.

Although Maslow’s hierarchy offers significant explanatory power, it does not provide a complete explanation of brand loyalty.

A more comprehensive understanding of branding involves placing Maslow’s work in the context of the works of biologist Antonio Damasio, psychiatrist Carl Jung, and psychologist Ivan Pavlov.
