In Buliding Strong Brands, Aaker uses real brand-buiding cases, from The Body Shop, Kodak, Harley-Davidson, Smirnoff, McDonald's, and others, to demonstrate how strong brands have been created and managed. A common pitfall of brand strategists is to focus on brand attributes. Aaker shows how to break out of the box by considering emotional and self-expressive benefits and by introducing the brand-as-person, brand-as-organisation, and brand-as-symbol perspectives. Aaker also demonstrates how to manage the 'brand system'- the interweaving of many brands-to achieve clarity and synergy, to adapt to a changing environment, and to leverage brand assests into new markets and products. | | Contents note: | Chapter 1.What is a strong brand; Chapter 2.The Saturn Story; Chapter 3.The Brand indentity system; Chapter 4.Organizational Associations; Chapter 5.Brand personality; Chapter 6.Identity implementation; Chapter 7.Brand strategies over time; Chapter 8.Managing brand systems; Chapter 9.Leveraging the brand; Chapter 10.Measuring brand equity across products and markets; Chapter 11.Organization for brand building. |
