DOWNLOAD EBOOKPlease note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The path to mimicry, which is to attract people to your brand, seems to lead to dead ends. While it is easy to explain why Coke has achieved brand loyalty after over 100 years of consumer advertising and marketing support, it is difficult to explain how Starbucks has achieved similar consumer loyalty without any advertising. #2 The seven pieces of primal code that make up a brand are: the creation story, the creed, the icons, the rituals, the pagans, the sacred words, and the leader. Together, these pieces of code construct a belief system. #3 Believing is belonging. When you are able to create brands that people believe in, you also create groups of people who feel that they belong. This sense of community is at the center of psychologist Abraham Maslow’s hierarchy of human needs. #4 The seven pieces of code that make up a belief system are the creation story, the creed, the icons, the rituals, the pagans, or nonbelievers, the sacred words, and the leader. When products and services have all seven pieces of code, they become a part of our culture.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKEvery year, 6 million companies and more than 100,000 products are launched. They all need an awesome name, but many (such as Xobni, Svbtle, and Doostang) look like the results of a drunken Scrabble game. In this entertaining and engaging book, ace naming consultant Alexandra Watkins explains how anyone—even noncreative types—can create memorable and buzz-worthy brand names. No degree in linguistics required. The heart of the book is Watkins's proven SMILE and SCRATCH Test—two acronyms for what makes or breaks a name. She also provides up-to-date advice, like how to make sure that Siri spells your name correctly and how to nab an available domain name. And you'll see dozens of examples—the good, the bad, and the “so bad she gave them an award.” Alexandra Watkins is not afraid to name names.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAs industries turn increasingly hostile, it is clear that strong brand-building skills are needed to survive and prosper. In David Aaker's pathbreaking book, MANAGING BRAND EQUITY, managers discovered the value of a brand as a strategic asset and a company's primary source of competitive advantage. Now, in this compelling new work, Aaker uses real brand-building cases from Saturn, General Electric, Kodak, Healthy Choice, 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. A second pitfall is to ignore the fact that individual brands are part of a larger system consisting of many intertwined and overlapping brands and subbrands. Aaker shows how to manage the "brand system" to achieve clarity and synergy, to adapt to a changing environment, and to leverage brand assets into new markets and products. As executives in a wide range of industries seek to prevent their products and services from becoming commodities, they are recommitting themselves to brands as a foundation of business strategy. This new work will be essential reading for the battle-ready.
