When people mention “Stockton,” what’s the first thing that comes to mind? What is their perception? What is the feeling they have when they hear the name of the city – both locally, in California, and throughout the west? The branding portion of this Stockton Branding, Development & Marketing Action Plan is built around creating a unique view of Stockton, illustrated on the next page. Everything Stockton does, in terms of downtown develop- ment, marketing, and community development, should rein- force the perception, or brand, you are trying to create in the minds of your residents and visitors. Look at your websites, your marketing materials. Do they re- inforce this statement? Do they say “upscale, urban, modern” – “ a place to celebrate” - some of the core values behind this brand? If not, then redevelop those marketing efforts and showcase the activities, the businesses, the photographs and other elements so that you “deliver on the promise.” The recommendations in this plan have been carefully de- veloped to reinforce this primary brand message and include the product that is necessary to deliver on that message. It’s important to note that a brand must be “earned.” You never “roll-out” a brand. It’s also important that you deliver on the promise. This brand promise is the perception we hope Stockton will earn over the next five to seven years as this plan is implemented. 6 Stockton, California July 2008 STOCKTON’S BRAND PROMISE Stockton, a vibrant and compelling community, is brimming with celebrations of all kinds throughout the year. From the engaging waterfront, where parks are filled with laughter and the weekly farmer’s markets,
