Historical Context: The American Cancer Society Brand
Established
Trustworthy
Research
90%+ name recognition
“No one from the Society visited, but a nice woman from Reach to Recovery did and was very helpful.”
Before branding, program logos had lives of their own
The branding initiative 1999-2000
• External assistance from leading international firm, Interbrand
• Began as a review of the inter-relationships between the Society and its sub-brands
• Rapidly recognized need for refinement of entire visual identity system

sub-brands
After branding, focus is on the “master” brand
Keeping our brand relevant
• Continue to build on the excellent reputation
• Seek new ways to drive deeper understanding of what the organization actually does
• Transparency, accountability, maintenance of public trust
• Respond to contemporary challenges
Saving Lives from Cancer:The American Cancer Society Value Proposition
Question:
Do Americans understand the mission of the American Cancer Society?
Consumer awareness remains high
But few recognize all we do
What is the one thing you most closely associate with the American Cancer Society?
Understanding is down
How much do you think you know about the ACS? Do you feel you know a lot, a little, or not much at all?
Yet the Society continues to enjoy the highest reputation
Organizational reputation on 1 to 10 scale
The more people know about the Society, the higher they rate our reputation
Reputation of ACS among those with varying degrees of knowledge of ACS
