What is a reason to believe?
Simply put, the reason to believe (RTB) is why your customer should believe you. What makes your claims and promises credible and trustworthy? Your RTB could be anything from your experience in the field, to proven results and testimonials, to products backed by extensive research or science.
Your reasons to believe should create a clear link between your brand and the benefits delivered. Your brand’s positioning statement should be authentic. Your brand’s positioning statement should be authentic and backed up by your brand’s behavior. In that sense, your positioning statement should reflect the truth.
Consumers want comfort, happiness, and satisfaction in their lives, and they get it in part through the products they buy. If the brands they use consistently deliver a positive experience, consumers form an opinion that the brand is trustworthy, which gives them peace of mind when buying.
