About this ebook
'Brand' is a concept essential to the entrepreneur's or marketing leader's success, but 'brand' and 'branding' are as likely to sow confusion and wasted effort as they are to drive business excellence.
"Your Brand Is Your Business ..." explains what branding is all about, how to create brand equity, and how it puts money in the bank for your successful brand.

Some Notes Regarding Fundamentals
As used throughout Your Brand Is Your Business … the term ‘customer’ stretches far beyond the party who hands you a credit card or sends you a check. It includes, in addition to this direct transactional customer, anyone who can exert an influence over the decision to try or buy your product, everyone, in fact, who has an influence over your failure or success. ‘Customer, here, encompasses a much larger circle of the public– potential buyers and disgruntled former customers, competitors, commentators, research scientists, regulators, internet busy-bodies, …
‘Product’ means whatever you’re selling – cars or cupcakes, business consulting or personal advice, dental or banking services, graphics designs or Long Term Care insurance policies. Your ‘product’ includes not only the thing or the service itself, but all the paraphernalia and support that goes along with it - your instruction booklets and telephone tech service, your packaging, your batteries required - purchase separately
