Abstract

Bu araştırmada kurumsal kimliğin oluşturulmasında logo, renkler, tipografi ve arketip kullanımının önemine odaklanılmıştır, yöntem olarak nitel araştırma metodolojisi çerçevesinde, betimsel analiz benimsenmiştir ve literatür taraması aracılığıyla elde edilen veriler incelenmiştir. Araştırma, kurumsal kimliğin güçlü üçlüsü olarak nitelendirilen logo, amblem ve arketiplerinin kullanımında tercih edilen tekniklerin marka imajına olan etkileri üzerine yoğunlaşmıştır.
Bulgular, mantıksal akıl yürütme yöntemiyle literatürdeki bilgilerle karşılaştırarak değerlendirilmiş, arketiplerin kullanımının, bir şirketin hedef kitlesiyle daha etkili bir iletişim kurmasına ve marka imajını güçlendirmesine nasıl katkıda bulunabileceğine dair her bir arketipin temsil ettiği değer ve özellik çerçevesinde incelenmiştir.
Bu kapsamda, araştırma, arketip tabanlı kurumsal kimlik unsurlarının kullanımının, markaların benzersizliğini vurgulayarak rekabetçi bir avantaj sağlayabileceğini ve hedef kitlesiyle daha derin bir ilişki kurulmasına yardımcı olabileceğine dair öngörüler sunarak, arketiplerin doğru bir şekilde entegre edilmesinin şirketler için marka sadakati ve müşteri memnuniyetini artırma potansiyeline sahip olduğuna dair öngörüler sunmaktadır.
Dolayısıyla arketiplerin etkili bir şekilde kullanılmasıyla birlikte markaların pazarlama stratejilerinde önemli bir rol oynayabileceği ve tüketicilerin markalarla daha güçlü bir bağ kurmalarına olanak sağlayabileceği düşünülmektedir.
