Creating awareness for an idea, campaign, or product is not sufficient for success; it represents only one-third of the formula. The more challenging and vital component is building trust, which is far more difficult to establish and is currently in short supply. Trust cannot be achieved merely through visibility or attention; it is cultivated through consistent presence, reliability in fulfilling promises, and evoking familiarity through past trustworthy experiences. Without trust, even the most innovative ideas may struggle to gain support, as awareness without trust fails to inspire action.
