3. What is a Brand?
A brand is more than what it appears to be
It’s more than a name
It’s more than logo
It’s more than the product

4. Brand – A Key Differentiator
“I don’t know who you are.
I don’t know your company.
I don’t know your company’s products.
I don’t know what your company stands for.
I don’t know your company’s customers.
I don’t know your company’s reputation.
Now—What was it you wanted to sell me?”
