A successful brand can create and sustain a strong, positive, and lasting impression in the mind of a consumer. Brands provide external cues to taste, design, performance, quality, value and prestige if they are developed and managed properly. Brands convey positive or negative messages about a product, along with indicating the company or service to the consumer, which is a direct result of past advertising, promotion, and product reputation.

  1. Taking one example from the video, post a WEnote about what modifications / tweaks you would make to achieve success for a smaller firm.
  2. Look at what others have posted on the course feed page.
