Introduction:
“A successful brand has a strong identity (mentally and physically), is innovative, consistent, competitively positioned, and holds a matching positive image in the customer´s mind.”
A brand as a term, name, design or symbols, or as a combination of these, that is to identify a product or service and differentiate them from their competitors. A brand is a very important part of a product and will add value to the product for the consumers and can thereby be a great competitive factor. The brand can help consumers to make a choice in their consumption and the brand can carry a message on to the consumers. The management of creating and caring about a brand is called branding and has become more and more important in the highly competitive market space.
The brand = product + package + added values. The added values are the associations that the target group have for the brand. It is relatively hard to distinguish between the effects of the product, package or the added value because the customer buys the totality. Meanwhile the different dimensions can become more prominent depending on the aspect that the company decide to focus on. The product value can grow with good design.
