Example sentences:

Definition from own experience or research:
on brand 本身也是近年来稍被用滥的口头流行语,多见于营销、娱乐、文体相关的口语和文章中,表示符合某种形象,与某种潮流/行为/预期相符或相称。需要根据不同上下文灵活处理。<br /><br />&#039;on brand&#039; is a trendy catchphrase often used bit too much nowadays in articles and oral presentations of marketing, entertainment, sports and cultural activities. It generally means becoming behaviors or activities for certain people, companies, situations or campaigns. To translate this phrase properly into Chinese requires a flexible lexicon in target language and will highly depend on the context.
