Marketing evolved from Economics
During 20th century, focus on exchange through manipulating the price, promotion, distribution of ideas, goods and services to satisfy customers and organisational objectives
“Rational Consumer” not swayed by image or intangibles
Must constantly innovate, improve product quality Brands = identification to distinguish your product
from competitors

But now…..
70% of “tangible” (physical) innovations are copied by competitors within 1year
Physical attributes get you in to a market but are not sustainable competitive advantage

Intangible Attributes
Intangibles are important in brand building: Harder for competitors to copy More likely to involve consumers emotionally
Emotion triggers brain 3000x faster than rational thought
More consistent with how consumers choose

Brand more than a logo
Not just a name (McDonalds) Not just symbol (golden arches) More than identification How you feel and what you think when
you see the name/symbol No brand = commodity
