Brand Management - 5 Steps to Effectively Leverage Your BrandOur Kids Media
The document discusses the importance of brands and provides strategies for leveraging a brand. It defines a brand as the expectations, memories, stories and relationships that influence consumer decisions. It also outlines 5 steps to leverage a brand: define it, depict it visually, deliver it internally and to partners, disseminate it through marketing, and develop a community around the brand. The document encourages defining the brand, ensuring all visual elements communicate it, training staff and partners, marketing the brand consistently across all touchpoints, and engaging customers to develop emotional connections and loyalty over time.
Brand management involves identifying and establishing a brand's positioning and values, planning and implementing marketing programs to build brand equity, measuring brand performance, and growing and sustaining the brand over time. A key part of brand management is developing a brand identity through elements like names, logos and slogans, and building strong, favorable brand associations in consumers' minds through integrated marketing activities and leveraging secondary associations.
The document discusses branding and brand management. It defines what a brand is, how it differs from a product, and the roles and benefits of branding for consumers and firms. Branding can apply to both physical goods and services. Strong brands are market leaders for decades but all brands are vulnerable to poor management. The strategic brand management process involves identifying brand plans, developing marketing programs, measuring performance, and growing equity over time.
1. The document describes a brand positioning toolkit that can be used to map brand values, identify a brand's position, and analyze the fit between a brand and target market.
2. It provides examples of using the toolkit to create a brand values map, plot a brand's current position, map the ideal position of a target market, and analyze the fit between the brand and market.
3. The analysis can identify whether a brand needs to be extended, repositioned, or a new brand is needed to better fit the target market's ideal position. Competitors' positions can also be overlaid for comparison.
A distinguishing symbol, mark, logo, name, word, sentence or a combination of these items that companies use to distinguish their product from others in the market. Once a brand has created positive sentiment among its target audience, the firm is said to have built brand equity. Some examples of firms with brand equity - possessing very recognizable brands of products - are Microsoft, Coca-Cola, Ferrari, Sony, The Gap and Nokia.
Brand positioning involves designing a brand's offering and image to occupy a distinctive place in a target market's mind. It is about manipulating what is already in the consumer's mind rather than creating something new. Fair & Lovely initially positioned itself as a fairness cream to help young women attract husbands but later focused on empowering women's self-confidence and careers. Cello positioned itself as a high-quality, affordable pen brand for people of all ages from students to professionals. Vicks Vaporub positioned itself around a mother's love and touch therapy to become the top cold relief brand.
The document discusses product and brand positioning. It defines positioning as determining the exact market location of a product offer based on its distinctive features. Complan was positioned as superior to milk in building health, while Amul milk powder was positioned as a convenient milk substitute, not as superior. Oberoi hotels are positioned as luxury, Hero Honda motorbikes as economy, and Surf as quality. Product positioning involves determining who the target market is, why they should buy the product, and how to communicate the message.
The document discusses various brand leveraging strategies such as line extensions, brand extensions, stretching brands vertically, and co-branding. It provides examples of each strategy and discusses their advantages and disadvantages. Specifically, it explains that brand leveraging uses an existing brand to expand into new product categories or classes. This provides familiarity and positive brand perceptions for consumers. Line extensions add variants to an existing brand, while brand extensions use a brand name in a different product category. Co-branding combines two brands for a joint product.
Brand building involves activities to nurture a brand into a profitable stream for the company after launch. Advertising helps build brands by contributing to how consumers perceive the brand. A company's brand provides a competitive advantage and is a strategic asset. Brand equity refers to the value added to a commodity by associating it with tangible and intangible benefits in consumers' minds. Power brands generate large profits and strategic opportunities because they have a distinctive product, deliver on their brand promise, and have a strong personality and widespread presence. Building brand equity requires distinguishing the product, aligning advertising with what is delivered, and creating emotional bonds and relationships with customers.
This document discusses several key aspects of brand management including brand loyalty, brand equity, the role of the brand manager, and the relationship between various business functions like marketing, finance, and R&D. It provides details on developing brand loyalty through loyalty programs, the importance and advantages of brand loyalty, levels of brand loyalty, and factors that influence loyalty. It also explains the meaning and components of brand equity and how to build equity. The roles and responsibilities of the brand manager are outlined along with best practices.

3. Coca-Cola - While known for beverages, Coca-Cola's brand could translate to foods/snacks, bottled water, coffee/tea, juice concentrates, flavorings.
4. Amazon - Amazon is already extending beyond e-commerce into content
Positioning refers to how organizations want consumers to perceive their product relative to competitors. It involves finding a unique position for the product in the consumer's mind. Effective positioning starts by looking inside the consumer's mind, not at the product's features. A strong positioning strategy clarifies what the brand is about, who it is for, and why consumers should purchase it over alternatives.

La comunicazione tra le persone è il primo valore dell’Agile. Trasmettere la vision di un’idea è molto difficile. Attraverso i Canvas è possibile non solo condividere la vision ma anche il viaggio che porterà alla realizzazione dell’intero prodotto.
Adottando i vari Canvas come il Business Model Canvas, il Lean Canvas e il Product Canvas è possibile definire e condividere le ipotesi iniziali, validarle sul mercato misurando i risultati e confrontarle con i risultati attesi. I Canvas quindi non solo ci aiutano nella parte iniziale del progetto ma ci accompagnano per tutto il ciclo di vita del prodotto evolvendo con esso.
Questi concetti non sono strettamente legati al software ma possono essere applicati in contesti differenti.
Durante questo workshop vedremo insieme come, partendo da un’idea, si possa realizzare un prototipo di applicazione mobile in meno di due ore… il tutto sotto forma di gioco.

The six elements are: Physique (visual/tangible qualities), Personality (character), Culture (values), Relationship (with customers), Reflection (of typical customer), and Self-Image. Together these facets define a brand's identity and boundaries for developing it over time in a coherent way. The identity prism shows how the elements interconnect to form a structured whole, providing a basis for long-term branding strategy and activities.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
