A short take on branding into the online world. Beginning from the conventional brand concept to what we see in the online world today. Have used many case studies, which according to me were the best i found :P
13. Brands are
• finding info (Google !)
• sharing films (YouTube !)
• selling stuff (eBay !)
• making friends (facebook !)
• adding to knowledge (Wikipedia !)
IN WAYS WE NEVER COULD BEFORE !

A key marketing challenge in today’s multichannel, multi-device world is the integration of
digital marketing opportunities into the
traditional marketing mix.
35. Online Branding
Leveraging the capabilities of the Internet’s
network connectivity and interactivity to drive
revenue is of paramount importance to today's
marketer.
36. Crisis ?
“Used to be, TV was the answer. The only problem
was it stopped working sometime around 1987.”
President GM North America
“Broadcasting an ad on television or in a
newspaper is admitting you have no idea who your
customers are.”
Gary Loveman, CEO, Harrah’s
38. Drive the Brand..
…websites need to be more than a
communication channel to customers. they must
be a proposition in their own right.
…websites must be an extension of the products
and services that a brand provides to its
customers.
39. Drive the Brand
…marketers must understand that as soon as
content becomes digital, customers expect more
from it.
…you have to allow for co-creation and create
“Prosumers”.
40. Drive the Brand..
The edge boundaries between
content, advertising, and application have gone.
42. The Whole Picture
Advertising faces new challenges
Attention, niche demand, value of social
communication
A new medium changes relationships
From customer to guest
From teller of stories to resource for stories
43. The Whole Picture
Brand Value:
Brand means authentic thought leadership (not
one-way interruptions)
Brand value depends on the amount (and
maybe quality) of social communication
