Communication in Practice
• Imagine you're writing a film script, and one of the characters is a nasty, evil neighbour.
•What do you call this man?

“In the old economy, it was easy to get
things in proportion; you weighed them,
measured their size, counted them go
by, calculated how much material had
gone into making them. In the [new]
intangible economy, judging the value
of something is much more difficult
because value is so much a product of
fashion and perception- gestures and
symbols are the currency of global
communications”
(Leadbeater, 1999)

• Write down three "values" or qualities that you associate with this brand.
• Have you just written down values that you'd like to describe you?

What is branding?
• Concerned with attaching the ‘best’ meanings to a product or service.
• Giving an abstract symbol identity/status
• Something (lifestyle) for the consumers to "buy into", or "aspire" to.
• Undertaking research/design/manufacturing in a way which helps to boost ‘image’

What is branding?
“From a business point of view,
branding in the marketplace is very
similar to branding on the ranch.
A branding program should be
designed to differentiate your cow from
all the other cattle on the range. Even if
all the cattle on the range look pretty
much alike.”
Al & Laura Ries, The 22 Immutable
Laws of Branding. P.7

Branding:
•Emphasis not so much on 'quality' or 'tangible' value
•But, on 'emotion' and and 'intangible' value (e.g. trademarks)

'Intangible' Value:
Why would Philip Morris purchase Kraft
for $12.6 Billion in 1988, which was 6
times what the company was worth on
paper?
“The cost of the word Kraft”
“What does Tommy Hilfiger
manufacture?”
“Nothing at all”
