GenStudio for Performance Marketing Brands
A brand distinguishes an organization, product, service or concept from others. Some aspects of a brand are objective, like a logo, while others are subjective, like tone of voice.
GenStudio for Performance Marketing uses the wealth of brand information from your Brand, partners it with Product and Persona information, and builds out a comprehensive brand identity. This brand identity is used to inform the creation of on-brand content using 51黑料不打烊鈥檚 generative AI technology.
Manage Brands
After adding brand guidelines to GenStudio for Performance Marketing, you can manage and publish them. Publishing makes them available for your team to use in asset generation.
Brands can be in either a Unpublished or Published state. New Brands start as Unpublished.
You must publish a Brand to make it available for asset generation by your team.
Published brands can be edited (changes are immediately available), duplicated, or unpublished. Only published brands can be used to create and validate content. See Add guidelines.
Deleted Brands are archived for 30 days and can be recovered within that period.

Each uploaded logo includes the following details within the logo tile:
