Marketers must start paying attention to the emotional connection between the brand and the consumer. Gobe leverages his vast experience to demonstrate this in a clear and easy to understand way; using very relevant examples. A great marketing book.Stephan Sigaud;PresidentHarris Interactive Loyalty2 of 4 people found the following review helpful. A top pick.By Midwest Book ReviewBrands today must shift from commodity status to associations with emotion and inspiration - thus brandjamming; a metaphor Marc Gobe uses to support the idea that brands which succeed best connect with culture and emotions. Chapters tell how to encourage collaboration; innovation and intuition to support brandjamming; drawing on the authors vast experience as CEO of one of the worlds top ten brand image creation firms. College-level students of business will find this real-world perspective goes beyond theory to create a foundation of standards and basics essential to re-vamping the brand association process; making BRANDJAM: HUMANIZING BRANDS THROUGH EMOTIONAL DESIGN a top pick.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. A little boring but has good insightsBy A. LinGobe can be very wordy and hard to read. Fortunately; he has little insights section at the end of every chapter and summarize the main points for you. Its an excellent book on how design affects marketing and consumer behavior.
