Branding for Success! (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781412052498)

In Branding for Success, Larry Checco debunks the notion that branding is the sole domain of large, well-funded corporations that can afford multimillion-dollar advertising budgets & celebrity endorsements. But that you, too, through efficient & cost-effective means, can raise the visibility and value of your organization in powerful & meaningful ways.

There's nothing in this book that's beyond the reach of any organization. Its two primary objectives are: (1) to make the case for branding and its importance to the sustainability-and perhaps even the survivability-of your organization; and (2) to make the fundamental principles of good branding accessible to everyone.

In short, Branding for Success will help you answer the questions: Who are we? What do we do? How do we do it? And why should anyone care enough to support us?
