Brand Archetypes Bollywood Style — Marketing ki Filmy Storyline!

“

Tera brand kaun sa filmy character hai?
 Ranbir jaisa dreamy Lover ya SRK jaisa Hero?
Ya phir woh Jester jo sabko hasa ke bech deta hai?

 Har brand bolta nahi — par har brand feel zaroor karata hai.

And that “feel”?
Comes from something deep: Brand Archetypes.

Let’s decode this with some Bollywood tadka 

What Are Brand Archetypes?

Carl Jung (yaani psychology ka OG hero) ne kaha —
Log features se nahi, feelings se connect karte hain.
Aur feelings aati hain from familiar characters.

Jaise movies mein hota hai Hero, Villain, Lover, Joker...
Waise hi branding mein hote hain 12 Archetypes.

Jo brand inko use karta hai — woh yaad reh jaata hai.
Chalo samjhte hain desi examples ke saath 

🇮🇳 Indian Brands Killing It With Archetypes

1.  Amul – The Innocent
Simple joys + nostalgia = butterly love
Amul girl = wholesome storytelling since forever.

2.   boAt – The Outlaw
Rebellious, edgy, unapologetically cool.
"Old-school audio? LOL, boAt breaks all the rules!"

3.  Royal Enfield – The Explorer
Highway, hills, freedom.
Zindagi na milegi dobara… toh ride le lo boss.

4.  Mamaearth – The Caregiver
Clean, safe, gentle products.
Like maa ka pyaar — trust built in.

 The 12 Brand Archetypes (Filmy Style)

 Why This Still Works (Even in AI Era!)

•  Psychology never goes out of style:
  People don’t remember features, they remember feelings.
  

•  Content creation becomes easy:
  Ek baar archetype samajh liya? Copywriting ho ya design — sab sorted.
  

•  Results bhi milte hain:
  Kantar kehta hai: Emotional branding = 27% boost in long-term brand value.
  

 How to Use Archetypes in YOUR Branding

Step 1: Feel samjho.
Inspiration? Nostalgia? Rebellion?
That’s your emotional core.

Step 2: Audit karo.
Website, logo, Insta captions — sab mein same vibe aa raha hai?

Step 3: Choose your type.
Pick 1 primary + 1 secondary.
Example: Fevikwik = Magician + Jester (jaadu bhi, hasi bhi)

Step 4: Infuse it everywhere.
From reels to reviews — ek consistent personality dikho.

Step 5: Test + tweak.
Engagement improve hua? CTR better? Keep optimizing!
