- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Great book very useful information here would recommend to others
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Many of the branding concepts are sound. However, anytime they wax prophetic about the internet and “divergence,” I listen as though it were a history of the 90s. They were wrong about their predictions. The authors should admit mistake and update this book because it really is useful.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Great concepts which can easily be applied to any brand :)
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5The book is clearly very outdated! It contains few good principles about branding but the world has changed so much in the last two decades that most principles are not applicable anymore and the writer is appearantly wrong about his expectations of what the internet was going to mean for branding. Listening to this book has kind of become a waste of time for me unfortunately..
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Worst marketing book I have ever read. And I have read over 500. First time I give a one-star rating. Extremely out dated. Dumb assumptions, which ended up bad. He is talking about Nokia being a leader and online marketing is the same as offline. And so on…
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/520/20 Amazon is doing well!
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Outdated, the author makes predictive statements that have actually ended up being bad. Like, saying an online shoe retailer wouldn't never thrive. Has anyone been following Zappos success?
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The primer to branding . That is Still relevant today
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Interesting read of his future predictions in hindsight. Some on the money, some missed the mark. Interesting read.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Some of out date information but really good concepts.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This is an excellent introduction to branding, why it's important, and how to do it right. What I found most helpful was their emphasis on not complicating or diluting a brand; with new product extensions or as an umbrella for multiple lines and business units. The book is organized in quick chapters, each highlighting one law. Each chapter is also prefaced with a solid example. I read the 1998 version, and found their points even more credible based on the longevity of the brand cases they cited.
