BRAND IMAGE AND IMAGERY
‡ Image is the product seen from the consumer¶s
perspective.
‡ It is what the consumers think about the product.
‡ Imagery is the consumer seen from the product¶s
perspective.

‡ Typically these imageries fall in three catagories:

‡ Sacred
‡ Secular
‡ Mediating
‡ A Sacred imagery is where the product
gets elevated to the metaphysical blue
skies.(E.g.  iii i
ii i á
i 

everybody from grand parents to
grandchildren uses them.)
‡ A seclar imagery for a product is where
the consumer would like to break the
routine to do something new.(


advertisement ³Nothing Official´ about it)
‡ A mediating image is something that
skilfully weaves the use of the sacred and
the secular in its imagery.(E.G.
iá


sandalwood Talc- a strinkgly modern
women uses santoor talc but is shown as
seeking the blessings of the elders.
 BRAND IMAGE AND USER
STATUS

irrespective of whether the brand is being considered for purchase
or not.

have a brand image of the product.
