The document summarizes 22 laws of branding, including that a brand becomes stronger by narrowing its focus (law of contraction), is born through publicity not advertising (law of publicity), and should strive to own a word in the consumer's mind (law of the word). It also notes that quality alone does not build brands (law of quality), a brand should promote its category not just itself (law of the category), and consistency and infrequent change are needed over decades to build a brand (laws of consistency and change).
