A brand is a mixture of attributes, tangible and intangible, symbolised in a trademark, which, if managed properly, creates value and influence.
"Value" has different interpretations: from a marketing or consumer perspective it is "the promise and delivery of an experience"; from a
business perspective it is "the security of future earnings"; from a legal perspective it is "a separable piece of intellectual property." Brands
offer customers a means to choose and enable recognition within cluttered markets.

3. “I don’t know who you are.
I don’t know your company.
I don’t know your company’s products.
I don’t know what your company stands for.
I don’t know your company’s customers.
I don’t know your company’s reputation.
Now - What was it you wanted to sell me?”
McGraw-Hill Magazine Ad

4. What is a brand?
Strawman: A collectively held idea of a
company by its customers in
reaction to the messages the
company sends via advertising,
product design and public
relations.

Brand Identity is the unique set of brand
associations that the brand strategist aspires to
create or maintain. These associations
represent what the brand stands for and imply
a promise to customers for the organization
members.

6. Aspects of Brand
• BRAND IMAGE

10. THE BRAND IMAGE TRAP
• Brand image is how customers and others
perceive the brand
• The brand image trap is that it lets the
customer dictate what you are
• Customer orientation gone amuck
• Creating a brand identity is more than
finding out what customers say they want.

11. Who’s the doctor?
“A brand identity is to brand strategy what
"strategic intent" is to a business strategy. Strategic
intent involves an obsession with winning, real
innovation, stretching the current strategy, and a
forward-looking, dynamic perspective; it is very
different from accepting or even refining past
strategy. Similarly, a brand identity should not
accept existing perceptions, but instead should be
willing to consider creating changes.

12. External Perspective Trap
"What does your brand stand for?"
"Achieving a 10 percent increase in sales"
Strategy has to look in, not just out.
Too busy marketing to live up to brand.

13. The Product Attribution Trap
Most Common trap
A brand is more than product
• Brand Users (the Charlie • Symbols (The stagecoach
woman) represents Wells Fargo)
• Country of Origin (Audi has • Brand-Customer relationship
German craftsmanship) (Gateway is a friend)
• Organizational Associations • Emotional benefits (Saturn
(3M is innovative company) users feel pride in building a
• Brand Personality (Yahoo is US built car)
fun and irreverent) • Self-Expressive benefits (Nike
users are strong)

17. Is Yahoo in a trap?

18. Breaking Out of Traps
• Brand-as-product that includes user
imagery and and/or country of origin
• Brand Identify based on perspectives of
brand organization, a person and a
symbol as well as a product
• A value proposition that includes
emotional and self expressive benefits as
well as functional benefits
• The ability of a brand to provide
credibility as well as a value proposition
• The Internal as well as external role of
the brand identity
• Brand Characteristics broader than brand
positions
