The Indispensable Brand by Mitch Duckler Pdf

According to market research conducted on more than 6,000 brands over a 10-year period, the proportion of people willing to endorse any brand as different from other brands is extremely low. Over the past two decades, a relentless focus on digital activation-without equal effort on establishing differentiated positioning-has made even once-great brands indistinguishable from the pack. The result: an environment that can only be described as brand monotony, which underwhelms and disappoints customers, and negatively impacts top- and bottom-line business performance. In The Indispensable Brand, Mitch Duckler draws on 25+ years of brand strategy experience to provide a wake-up call for any modern-day marketer or business leader-and a roadmap to more effective brand differentiation. Leveraging empirical market research and dozens of case studies, this book provides a 360-degree view on brand-building, focusing on strategy (e.g., positioning, architecture, and extendibility) as well as development (e.g., experience, story, and activation), and helping marketers transform their brands from indistinguishable to indispensable.

Branding Bud by David Paleschuck Pdf

Never before has a book been compiled on cannabis brands and the consumers they appeal to. Once an underground commodity, with legalization in more and more states and countries, cannabis is now marketed under a variety of national brands, each with its own unique approach to targeting consumers. The global legal cannabis market was valued at US$17.7 billion in 2019 and is expected to reach US$73.6 billion in 2027. Celebrities, athletes, politicians, and large corporations alike are investing and competing in this fast-paced industry. But what makes a cannabis brand successful? What techniques do companies use to brand and market their products? What segments have been established? In Branding Bud: The Commercialization of Cannabis, David Paleschuck answers these questions, digging deep into this evolving industry to uncover what both small companies and large corporations are doing to introduce their products to the hearts and minds of cannabis consumers. The results of his exploration may surprise you. Branding Bud showcases the exciting range of products that cannabis consumers will be able to buy in a local dispensary once legalization comes to their state. The book offers a comprehensive overview and contextualization of this new segment, examining the multitude of emerging brands, their creative assets, and the strategies behind them, and the political, legal, and cultural aspects of cannabis that inform the brand landscape of today. This book is a must-read for entrepreneurs, investors, marketers, designers, and anyone interested in the rapidly growing cannabis industry. -- David Paleschuck

Brand Portfolio Strategy by David A. Aaker Pdf

In this long-awaited book from the world’s premier brand expert and author of the seminal work Building Strong Brands, David Aaker shows managers how to construct a brand portfolio strategy that will support a company’s business strategy and create relevance, differentiation, energy, leverage, and clarity. Building on case studies of world-class brands such as Dell, Disney, Microsoft, Sony, Dove, Intel, CitiGroup, and PowerBar, Aaker demonstrates how powerful, cohesive brand strategies have enabled managers to revitalize brands, support business growth, and create discipline in confused, bloated portfolios of master brands, subbrands, endorser brands, cobrands, and brand extensions. Renowned brand guru Aaker demonstrates that assuring that each brand in the portfolio has a clear role and actively reinforces and supports the other portfolio brands will profoundly affect the firm’s profitability. Brand Portfolio Strategy is required reading not only for brand managers but for all managers with bottom-line responsibility to their shareholders.
