Threats to brand relevance are always lurking around the corner. Your brand is virtually never immune from the risk of fading instead of being energized or being damaged instead of strengthened.—David Aaker From branding guru David Aaker comes Three Threats to Brand Relevance, a provocative new offering in the Jossey-Bass Short Format series. In Three Threats Aaker reveals that the key to an organization's sustained growth is to learn what it takes to bring «big» innovation to market and create barriers to competitors. Aaker also shows how well-established companies can avoid becoming irrelevant in the face of the continuing parade of marketing dynamics led by others. Building on his full-length book Brand Relevance, Aaker offers a guide for confronting the three threats if they emerge and shows how to put in place the strategies that will keep the threats at bay. Threat #1: A decline in category or subcategory relevance. Customers simply no longer want to buy what you are making, despite the fact you are offering a quality product and some customers love it. Threat #2: The loss of energy relevance. Without energy the brand simply does not come to mind as other more visible brands and a decline in energy can create a perception that it is locked in the past, suitable for an older generation. Threat #3: The emergence of a «reason-not-to-buy.» The brand may have a perceived quality problem or be associated with a firm policy that is not acceptable. Whether your brand is just breaking into the marketplace or has a long held place in the hearts of its consumers, any forward-thinking company can implement Aaker's proven methods and strategies as part of their organization's ongoing review of brand strategy with the help of this succinct and to-the-point resource. About the Jossey-Bass Short Format Series Written by thought leaders and experts in their fields, pieces in the Jossey-Bass Short Format Series provide busy, on-the-go professionals, managers and leaders around the world with must-have, just-in-time information in a concise and actionable format.

This book, written by a senior marketer with over thirty years experience of using marketing techniques and concepts, sets out to describe, contextualize and rate them. Its prime emphasis is on understanding their status so that they can be used to direct the use of shareholder funds effectively. Its conclusion is that seasoned professionals must use their judgement about when and how to use them, but they also need to understand them in depth if they are going to make well-rounded, effective investment decisions. Above all it asks: “how useful and relevant is this concept? Will it improve decision making? Does the damn thing have any credibility and does it work?” “This book combines a rigorous review of a wide range of marketing concepts with many practical examples and case studies. It can be read or dipped into both by seasoned professionals and by those just embarking on their marketing career.” Sir Paul Judge, President, Chartered Institute of Marketing “Laurie Young casts an experienced and skeptical eye on many cherished marketing concepts and techniques. He provides an antidote to the tendency to adopt them without understanding their limitations and possibilities.” Professor George Day, The Wharton School, Chairman of the American Marketing Association “Laurie Young has produced nothing less than the A-Z of marketing. He has journeyed far and wide mapping out hundreds of business, marketing and communications models to produce an extremely useful industry atlas. Certainly it will find a well-thumbed home on my bookshelf.” Hamish Pringle, Director General, Institute of Practitioners in Advertising “This book is much needed by marketing. Its value is in challenging concepts, some of which have been the accepted norm for a long time. But as this book shows, some of these may no longer be relevant and appropriate for marketers in today’s consumer environment.” Mike Johnston, CEO, Dairy Council of Northern Ireland and former Chairman of the Chartered Institute of Marketing “Senior marketers, like those who make up the membership of the Marketing Society, hone the methods and techniques they favour as their career develops. Laurie Young clearly did that and an experienced voice shines through this critique. It is heartening to find that so many concepts have a long history of producing real value for businesses but alarming to find so many of the theorists’ favourites to be so groundless.” Hugh Burkitt, CEO, The Marketing Society

Dieses Buch richtet sich an Marketingverantwortliche und Agenturen. Es bietet eine pragmatische Vorgehensweise fur die Erstellung von «Advertisements that sell»: – ein Reifegradmodell (Basic, Managed, Advanced, Excellent), anhand dessen jeder Mitarbeiter und jede Fuhrungskraft schnell feststellen kann, wie gut die Marketingorganisation wirklich ist und ob noch unentdeckte Reserven in ihr stecken, und – ein Referenzmodell, an dem jeder Marketer seine Ablaufe und Strukturen spiegeln kann, um gezielt Ansatzpunkte fur die Optimierung der Marketingprozesse zu identifizieren. Diese Modelle orientieren sich an den drei Grundbausteinen der Exzellenz fur effiziente und erfolgreiche Marketingkommunikation: – «Wie muss ich meine Werbung gestalten, dass der Adressat nicht nur auf sie aufmerksam wird, sondern auch sofort versteht, welches Bedurfnis er haben soll?» – «Wie komme ich schnell und wirksam zu einem sehr guten Ergebnis fur meine Markenfuhrung?» – Und da es noch schwieriger ist, Ideen umzusetzen, als sie zu generieren, bietet das Buch praxisorientierte Prozesse und Leitlinien, mit denen der Leser die Erkenntnisse aus den anderen Bereichen umsetzen und dabei auch noch die Marketingeffizienz «monitoren» kann. Untermauert wird dies alles durch gute und schlechte Beispiele; Checklisten und Templates erleichtern die praktische Umsetzung.
