What is a brand?
= Added value which the consumer perceives. A value worth of paying extra – in comparison with a nameless, brandless product which fullfils the same purpose
- Brand integrates the company’s communication
Core concepts related to brands
• Image • Added value: a branded product offers to the user
more than just the product • Promise: the promise of the company to
continuously offer the same product /service
(Vuokko, 2003)

Connection between the
brand and the client
FEELING
STRONG EXPERIENCE
Touching the client on emotional level
Products vs. Brands
• A product occupies functional territory. It does something.
• A brand exists in your head. It stands for something.
• A product is based on something tangible. It’s bigger, faster, longer lasting.
• A brand is based on associations. It makes you feel something.
Products vs. Brands
• A product expands choice. ”Where do you want to stop for lunch?”
• A brand simplifies choice: ”Let’s go to Hessburger
• One product can be identical to another. ”It comes with earphones”
• A brand differentiates.” I want the one with white earbuds”
A strong brand is strong even when the economy is shaking

It's not easy being minced meat. You're the best-selling meat product, yet no one knows you by name or shows appreciation. You're a replaceable mass product, a cheap loss leader.
