“Something you Prefer” “Something you Love”“Something you Participate In”

#2 The Changing Brand: Participation is the New Currency


“Brand building today is so different than what it was 50 years ago.

50 years ago you could get a few marketing people in a small room and decide, ‘this is what our brand will be’, and then spend a lot of money on TV advertising — and that was your brand.

Today anyone, whether it is an employee or a customer, if they have a good or bad experience with your company they can blog about it or Twitter about it and it can be seen by millions of people. It’s what they say now that is your brand.”

–Tony Hsieh, CEO, Zappos.com
