Brands, merely a label for some people, are one of the most essential parts of firms’ success. Brands such as Apple ($246 B), Google ($173 B), and Facebook ($71 B) are not only valued at astronomic rates but also provide strong meaning to consumers. In this module, we will discover what makes a brand successful especially in the current digital age.
