    2. History? Why should we care? • It’s not math or physics with a 1000+ year history • With so many “guru’s” critical thinking is... critical • Debunking Brand Gospel*? • A little history can provide context •The problems that “branding” was solving early on are not the problems of today *Gospel actually means “good news
    3. What are we covering? 1.A brief history of “branding”, why was it important, and what problems shaped the discipline 2.The importance of Brand Experience, how does the early focus of branding practitioners relate to todays products and services So on to the brief history....
    4. Industrial Revolution: Production Capacity up The ability to mass produce products outstrips latent demand, product choice proliferates. Late 19th to early 20th century
    5. The Depression: Consumers tighten belts $ The depression in the 30’s puts another dent in the ability and desire of society to consume
    6. War: production capacity Up, more belt tightening WWII not only increases industrial capacity to produce goods, but drives society to be frugal
    7. The Perfect Storm With enormous production capacity and a frugal culture, companies latched on to a new communication medium and modern branding & advertising is born
    8. Modern Branding 50+ years 100,000+ $ products in one store 1900’s 1930’s 1940’s 1950’s 2000’s Modern Branding Really Takes off Here
    9. So What? • Modern branding is only a 50+ year old discipline, in its infancy, in its “the world is flat mode” • Modern branding was born of the television and the need drive consumption to a mass market • Communicating with a mass market required broadcast • Fast Moving Consumer Goods has driven branding for the first 50 years • FMCG - not interactive, not relationship based, all about the product and the communication around the product
    10. Branding as a theory comes from fast moving consumer goods • Average number of brands in a super market went from 20,000 in 1990 to over 32,000 in 2002 (Food Institute, 2002) • Super Centers 100,000 + SKU’s • The drive to differentiate a product on a shelf is a driving force behind “branding” methodologies and the rise of agencies • All about the packaging, all about the product, all about volume. • Visual, Visceral, Emotional
