Great comprehensive book with plenty of case studies.
Funny enough: the book has foreseen the P&G success of Old Spice (the one I read was published in 2008) before it happened in 2010 2011 (it didn't speak about social media though)
Loved this book - great information source on branding with a lot of examples. You are guaranteed to learn something about brands you know that you didn't know! Easy read. Fun. Goes in depth on brand equity - building, measuring and managing.
Strategic Brand Management: Building, Measuring, and Managing Brand Equity is a book written by Kevin Lane Keller, a leading expert in the field of brand management. The book provides a comprehensive framework for understanding and managing brand equity, which is the value of a brand to an organization.
The book begins by defining brand equity and its components, including brand loyalty, perceived quality, and other associations. Keller then delves into the key strategies for building and managing brand equity, including brand positioning, brand identity, and brand portfolio management. He also provides insights on how to measure the success of a brand and how to adapt to changes in the marketplace.
One of the strengths of the book is its practical approach, with a wide range of real-world examples and case studies used to illustrate the concepts discussed. Keller also provides a variety of tools and templates that can be used to develop and implement brand management strategies.
There are not many books on Brand Management, so we didn't have much to choose from for our class. The book's not bad, but it's very hard to actually read the chapters because the text is very wordy and feels abstract, something that's not backed by solid research. The case studies are comprehensive and up to date, which is maybe the best thing about this textbook.
I am currently studying for an exam of Brand Management and this book is basically the whole class. My teacher based almost everything in the class summaries from this book. I am guessing that the branding cases will show up in my exam. Anyway, this is a interesting, however a bit outdated, book for anyone interested in studying Branding.
