Recommendation

This thick, striking B2B branding book by the experts at Deloitte is beautiful. The medium is the message – each page illustrates the company’s commitment to producing clean, consistent and appealing materials that represent the Deloitte brand. Handsomely designed text introduces the fundamentals of B2B branding across an international, multifaceted corporation. The book shares many pretty samples of Deloitte’s work, but doesn’t offer even a peek below the polished surface of its public B2B efforts. You will learn a lot from the guidelines presented in carefully constructed business-speak, but don’t expect a personalized version of the processes covered in the case studies. What you see is what you get, but what you see is useful and great looking. getAbstract recommends this cool branding book for your coffee-table collection.

Take-Aways

  • Branding is a strategic mix of both the “tangible and intangible” that forms the “essence” of a company.
  • To succeed, organizations must have a cohesive, managed brand platform.
  • Branding is a long-term, strategic process requiring your entire organization’s commitment and resources.
