With the vigorous development of the cultural and creative industry, cultural and creative products have gradually become an important carrier for promoting regional economic transformation and enhancing cultural soft power. Zibo ceramics, as traditional craft products with profound historical heritage and distinct regional characteristics, have gradually formed a relatively representative competitive advantage in the market under the impetus of cultural and creative development and branding. However, at present, there are still deficiencies in brand positioning, market promotion and consumer recognition of Zibo's ceramic cultural and creative products. This article takes Zibo ceramics as the research object and, based on the theory of brand marketing, analyzes the current market situation of its cultural and creative products, and explores its practices and predicaments in product design, brand building, channel expansion and marketing models. Through methods such as literature research, case analysis, field investigation, SWOT analysis, and comparative study, this paper proposes optimization paths for Zibo ceramic cultural and creative products in terms of brand differentiation, digital communication, cross-border cooperation, and cultural value exploration. The research results show that branding is the core to enhancing the market competitiveness of cultural and creative products, while cultural connotation and innovative design are important guarantees for promoting the realization of brand value. This research aims to provide theoretical references and practical inspirations for the sustainable development of Zibo's ceramic cultural and creative industry.
