Branding is about how business motivates a consumer to make
a purchase.
When does a brand take on something special and become asuper brand or a power brand.
There are many instances where brand names become so
recognized that they actually become a generic name for that
type of product.

and creates an image in the public mind.

demand for the product among the customers in a selective
manner.

brand by the consumers, has to incur heavy expenditure.

the goods if the brand is not popular.
