Points of Parity
My discussion of strategic awareness, points of singular distinction, and brand equity would not be complete without discussion of brand points of parity.
Points of parity are those associations that are often shared by competing brands. Consumers view these associations as being necessary to be considered a legitimate product offering within a given category.
In other words, if you create what you consider to be a wonderful point of differentiation and position, they might not be enough if consumers do not view your product or service as measuring up on 搈inimum product expectations? Points of parity are necessary for your brand but are not sufficient conditions for brand choice.
As an example, I might produce a wonderful new automobile that uses advanced global positioning and sensor technologies that render a driver obsolete by automatically routing the car, adjusting speed for traffic conditions, recognizing and complying with all traffic laws, and delivering passengers and cargo to the proper destination without the need for operator intervention. Alas, I抳e invented the first car with functional auto-pilot. What a strong position and unique selling proposition!
However, unless I have fully consider my brand抯 points of parity with other products in the category, I probably will not meet with success.
Consumers might expect that at minimum my automobile have four wheels with rubber, inflatable tires, be street legal, run on a widely-available fuel source, be able to operate during both night and day in most weather conditions, seat at least two people comfortably with luggage, be able to operate on existing roads and highways, and provide a fair level of personal safely to occupants. If my automobile does not possess these points of parity with competing brands, then it might be too different and might not be seen as a viable choice or a strong brand.
The lesson here is that differentiation and singular distinction are necessary for strong brands, but they do not solely make for a strong brand. Your brand must also measure up well against the competition on expected criteria so as to neutralize those attributes.
Once you have met the points of parity requirement and then you provide a unique selling proposition and hold a strong, defensible position, then you have the makings of a very strong brand.
