Download "The Argument For Branding" White Paper
"A company’s brand and its acceptance by its customers is the new marketing tool/weapon. But brand implementation differs vastly from tactical marketing implementations. It is much more holistic, more subtle and most of all, more loyalty inspiring. Let’s face it—people love their brands. They identify with them. In this modern age, where many rootless corporate drifters wander from place to place, job to job and town to town, the solidity of brand and what it represents is comforting. Instead of individuals claiming they are from a town, a state, a church or a college, many express their ultimate identities through a subtle combination of their brand choices. We relate because we wear Ralph Lauren, or buy Maytag, or drive BMW or shop Gap. We are our brands."
