Presentation
Since the first day marketing was applied, brands have been important. Thus, each marketer needs to understand the basics of branding and brand communications. In this course, we will learn why it is important to develop a strong brand, what exactly constitutes a strong brand, which branding strategies can be applied, what brand value is (i.e. brand equity), how we can evaluate brand equity, etc. Marketing communications play a big role in building and supporting strong brands. That's why this course also focuses on some important brand communication tools and strategies. Not only traditional communication but also more contemporary communication (e.g., product placement, buzz marketing, sponsorship, etc.) will be covered. We will analyze the power and (dis)advantages of these tools to enhance brand value, discuss which tool is most appropriate in which situation and to reach which objective, learn how to develop an integrated marketing communication plan, etc.
