Download or read book How Brands Become Icons written by D. B. Holt and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2004-09-15 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coca-Cola. Harley-Davidson. Nike. Budweiser. Valued by customers more for what they symbolize than for what they do, products like these are more than brands--they are cultural icons. How do managers create brands that resonate so powerfully with consumers? Based on extensive historical analyses of some of America's most successful iconic brands, including ESPN, Mountain Dew, Volkswagen, Budweiser, and Harley-Davidson, this book presents the first systematic model to explain how brands become icons. Douglas B. Holt shows how iconic brands create "identity myths" that, through powerful symbolism, soothe collective anxieties resulting from acute social change. Holt warns that icons can't be built through conventional branding strategies, which focus on benefits, brand personalities, and emotional relationships. Instead, he calls for a deeper cultural perspective on traditional marketing themes like targeting, positioning, brand equity, and brand loyalty--and outlines a distinctive set of "cultural branding" principles that will radically alter how companies approach everything from marketing strategy to market research to hiring and training managers. Until now, Holt shows, even the most successful iconic brands have emerged more by intuition and serendipity than by design. With How Brands Become Icons, managers can leverage the principles behind some of the most successful brands of the last half-century to build their own iconic brands. Douglas B. Holt is associate professor of Marketing at Harvard Business School.

Book excerpt: This book series focuses on the history and myths of America's Most Iconic Brands and how they became so entwined in the meaning of the American Dream into our society. The American Dream is a concept that has been deeply ingrained in the fabric of American society since its inception. It embodies the idea that through hard work, determination, and perseverance, anyone can achieve success and prosperity. Many of the most iconic brands in America have tapped into this ethos and have become symbols of the American Dream themselves. Brands like Coca-Cola, McDonald's, and Ford represent not only products and services, but also the values and aspirations of the American people. These brands have become synonymous with success, innovation, and the pursuit of a better life. What sets these iconic brands apart from others is their ability to capture the imagination of consumers. Through clever advertising, engaging storytelling, and innovative products, these brands have been able to evoke emotions and inspire dreams. They have effectively tapped into the collective imagination of the American people, creating a sense of connection and belonging that goes beyond mere consumption. For example, Coca-Cola's iconic polar bear commercials and Ford's inspirational "Built Ford Tough" campaigns have become cultural touchstones that have captured the hearts and minds of consumers. In a society that is constantly evolving and changing, these iconic brands serve as symbols of stability and tradition. They represent a sense of continuity and reliability in a world that can often feel chaotic and uncertain. As we continue to navigate the complexities of the modern world, these brands will continue to play a crucial role in shaping our collective imagination and defining what it means to achieve the American Dream.

Download or read book Obsessed written by Emily Heyward and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2020-06-09 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2020 Porchlight Marketing & Sales Book of the Year The cofounder and chief branding officer of Red Antler, the branding and marketing company for startups and new ventures, explains how hot new brands like Casper, Allbirds, Sweetgreen, and Everlane build devoted fan followings right out of the gate. We're in the midst of a startup revolution, with new brands popping up every day, taking over our Instagram feeds and vying for our affection. Every category is up for grabs, and traditional brands are seeing their businesses erode as hundreds of small companies encroach on their territory, each hoping to become the next runaway success. But it's not enough to have a great idea, or a cool logo. Emily Heyward founded Red Antler, the Brooklyn based brand and marketing company, to help entrepreneurs embed brand as a driver of business success from the beginning. In Obsessed, Heyward outlines the new principles of what it takes to build and launch a brand that has people queuing up to buy it on opening day. She takes you behind the scenes of the creation of some of today's hottest new brands, showing you: • How Casper was able to upend the mattress industry by building a beloved brand where none had existed before • How the dating app Hinge won a fanatical user base and great word-of-mouth with the promise that the app was "designed to be deleted" • Why luggage startup Away, now valued at $1.4 billion, could build their brand around love of travel by launching with just one product--a hard-shell carry-on suitcase--rather than a whole range of luggage offerings. Whether you're starting a new business, launching a new product line, or looking to refresh a brand for a new generation of customers, Obsessed shows you why the old rules of brand-building no longer apply, and what really works for today's customers.

Download or read book Cultural Strategy written by Douglas Holt and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2010-10-28 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do we explain the breakthrough market success of businesses like Nike, Starbucks, Ben & Jerry's, and Jack Daniel's? Conventional models of strategy and innovation simply don't work. The most influential ideas on innovation are shaped by the worldview of engineers and economists - build a better mousetrap and the world will take notice. Holt and Cameron challenge this conventional wisdom and take an entirely different approach: champion a better ideology and the world will take notice as well. Holt and Cameron build a powerful new theory of cultural innovation. Brands in mature categories get locked into a form of cultural mimicry, what the authors call a cultural orthodoxy. Historical changes in society create demand for new culture - ideological opportunities that upend this orthodoxy. Cultural innovations repurpose cultural content lurking in subcultures to respond to this emerging demand, leapfrogging entrenched incumbents. Cultural Strategy guides managers and entrepreneurs on how to leverage ideological opportunities: - How managers can use culture to out-innovate their competitors - How entrepreneurs can identify new market opportunities that big companies miss - How underfunded challengers can win against category Goliaths - How technology businesses can avoid commoditization - How social entrepreneurs can develop businesses that appeal to more than just fellow activists - How subcultural brands can break out of the 'cultural chasm' to mass market success - How global brands can pursue cross-cultural strategies to succeed in local markets - How organizations can maximize their innovation capabilities by avoiding the brand bureaucracy trap Written by leading authorities on branding in the world today, along with one of the advertising industry's leading visionaries, Cultural Strategy transforms what has always been treated as the "intuitive" side of market innovation into a systematic strategic discipline.
