Conclusion:
Brands drive profit. Brands drive future profit. Brands drive future growth. Brands can bridge this paradox, because they drive human growth by connecting consumers to meaningful products and experiences, by connecting employees to meaningful workplaces, and connecting company strategies to innovation and reinvention. Most importantly, brands drive human growth. The first budget to be cut in a downturn and the last budget to be raised in strong times, let’s re-think the role of marketing. Today, it is more essential than at any time in prior history to CREATE. Let’s acknowledge marketing’s opportunity to play that role in our ecosystems and look to our brands to inspire our shareholders, ourselves, and our neighbors to a brighter future.
