About

The three brands considered the most powerful in the world according to the 2007 Interbrand ranking were Coca-Cola, Microsoft and IBM. In the most recent ranking (2022), only Microsoft was still in the top 3! The advantages of a strong brand are numerous: greater customer loyalty, greater solidity in the event of economic crisis, and strong resistance to competitors' marketing actions. But maintaining a strong brand image is a constant and long-term task. Indeed, every experience a consumer has with a brand can change his or her perception, positively or negatively. Consequently, only a well-thought-out, coherent and consistent 4Ps strategy (product, price, place and promotion) can maintain or reinforce it.

In this module, participants will analyze how a strong brand creates preference for its product or service, increases the company's value on the market, prevents new competitors from entering the market and improves the profitability of its products or services.

Learning objectives

  1. Understand the basic concepts of brand management (brand image, brand awareness, brand architecture).
  2. Use the many brand elements (logo, slogan, color, name, sound) to build a strong, positive brand.
  3. Identify and understand key performance indicators specific to brand management.

Target audience

  1. Anyone wishing to understand the mechanisms of brand power over consumers.
  2. Managers of SMEs or start-ups wishing to establish a coherent and efficient brand strategy.
  3. Marketing and communications directors and managers wishing to update their knowledge and share their daily challenges.
