a brand’s language distinctive. These might comprise the following:

The use of stories

The law of the word by Al and
Laura Ries
1. You need to do your product or
service more expensive than the competition
2. You need to find a code word for prestige
By far the most successful brands are those that kept a narrow focus and then expanded the category as opposed to those brands that tried to expand their names into other categories (safe cars with Volvo, Montblanc for expensive pens etc)
Ask how large a market your brand can create buy barrowing a focus and owning a word in the mind.

Conclusion on brand identity
There will be further emphasis
on using visual identity systems to deliver truly differentiated
content rather than just existence for its own sake.
The growth of luxury brands will eventually influence how non-luxury brands portray themselves. This will result in a general upgrading of the presentation of all services, even at the discount end of markets
Verbal identity will become a more important tool for brand expression as brands realize that their stories are a rich differentiating and motivating resource, containing the truth of a company’s identity.
Слайд 13
Conclusion on brand identity
Management of an existing visual
identity will become a real concern. Brand owners will
increasingly look for better integration between the languages of identity and advertising.
Naming will undergo a regenerative period following years of cynical jibes from the media.
Names will be sensible or extreme but manafactured Latinate names have had their heydays.
Photography and illustration will go through a period of rethinking. Real people in real situations will be replaced by illustration with its magical, self-gratifying and artistic qualities.
Слайд 14
Conclusion on brand identity
The economies of Asia, Russia,
China, and Africa will leapfrog the branding learning curve.
The result will challenge the most staid patterns of established markets , raising issues of intellectual property, trademark protection and ethics between the developing and developed worlds.
The worlds’ greatest identities are irrational just like brands.

Brand communication
Advances in technology have led to systems
for collecting and using data about individual consumers which
a previous generation of marketers could hardly have dreamt of, giving a new impetus to direct marketing, both online and offline.
Online advertising is growing rapidly and accounts for significant share of advertising expenditure. Online strategies and tactics are evolving and at present the fastest growing area which also has the largest share of the category, is search marketing – the ability to target messages to individuals searching for specific words.
Слайд 16
Brand communication
People text each other on their mobile
phones, and follow on Facebook but they also continue
to read newspapers, browse through glossy magazines at the doctor, and stand on station platforms staring at posters.
The smart way to deal with the new complexity of media channels is to recognize that people are using a wider variety of media in more complex ways.
Слайд 17
Evaluating brand communications
There are two types of measurable
outcomes of brand communications: effects on sales or business
and consumer responses. Both are important.
Consumer responses include reactions to the advertising itself –recall, liking and attitudes to the brand.
Longer-term effects of brand communications on the strength of a brand may be seen through attitudinal questions and by the brand’s s marketplace performance such as its ability to command a price premium or resist competitive pressures.
Слайд 18
Integration
Effective brand communications can be integrated in 3
different ways:
Functional integration
Brand integration
Thematic integration
Слайд 19
Conclusion
Brand communications may do 3 things for a
brand:
Provide information about the brand
Make a brand famous
and familiar
Create distinctive patterns of associations and meanings which make the brand more attractive and saleable
Слайд 20
Conclusion
The return on communications budgets should not be
measured only in the short-term or in sales responses
that can be directly linked to specific activities. For many brands investment in communications at a level comparable with that of competitors should be regarded as a continuing cost of doing business and ensuring the future cash flows of the brand.
Not all effective brand communications can be intellectualised in terms of content.
Research techniques for evaluating advertising or other communications, whether before or after exposure based on verbal understanding of information or conscious memory. These do not reflect the effectiveness of communications.
