Synopsis

Strategic Brand Management

Building, Growing and Sustaining Powerful Brands

A product can be manufactured. A service can be delivered. But a brand is built in the mind of the customer.

Strategic Brand Management: Building, Growing and Sustaining Powerful Brands provides a practical and contemporary understanding of how powerful brands are created, managed, measured and sustained in competitive markets. Moving beyond logos, advertising and promotional campaigns, the book examines branding as a strategic business capability that connects customer insight, positioning, identity, experience, communication, technology, organisational capabilities and long-term value creation.

The book takes the reader from the foundations of branding to the future of brands. It explains how brands create competitive advantage, how customer-based brand equity develops, how positioning and differentiation influence choice, and how identity, personality and distinctive brand associations are created. It also examines the complete brand experience—from product and pricing to distribution, service, digital platforms and customer relationships.

Particular attention is given to contemporary challenges such as social media, influencer and creator branding, artificial intelligence, digital metrics, brand architecture, portfolio management, brand extensions, globalisation, sustainability, authenticity, disruption and changing consumer behaviour.

The book also explains how brand performance can be measured through customer, market, digital and financial metrics, including brand strength, loyalty, customer lifetime value, brand valuation and return on brand investment.

Real-world cases involving Apple, Amul, Starbucks, Zomato, Nike, Dove, Coca-Cola, Tata, IKEA, Amazon, Netflix, Duolingo, Unilever, Google, Tesla, Asian Paints, LEGO, Zara, Airbnb and Kodak connect strategic concepts with actual business decisions and market transformations.

The central idea of the book is simple: strong brands are not created by communication alone. They are created when a meaningful promise is consistently converted into customer value, distinctive experiences and enduring trust.

Whether you are a management student, marketing professional, entrepreneur, business leader, researcher or educator, this book offers a structured framework for understanding how brands become valuable—and how they can remain relevant in a rapidly changing world.

Inside the book, you will learn:

• How products become powerful brands
