VOLVO: AN INSIGHT INTO BRANDING - Brands and Brand Positioning

In marketing management communication is used to inform, persuade or remind people of a product and its characteristics. Branding is one tool used in marketing management communication and its role is often misunderstood as representing a graphical symbol rather than embracing the larger ideas of the values imbued in a firm's relationship with its customers.

Branding works alongside advertising, publicity and sales promotions as a means to persuade customers to purchase a product or service. For consumers a brand can attract and retain customers by promoting value, image prestige and lifestyle meanings. For companies a brand is a means of creating a distinctive presence and identity in an emerging market. This exercise asks you to explore brand positioning options for Volvo.
