“Fear is one of our biggest motivations, and mortality is probably our biggest fear of all. Brands would be wise to remember their own mortality to help focus their attempts to grow and put a halt to their decline.” – Brand Momentum

Brands, like living beings, have a lifecycle. They are born, grow, and eventually, face the possibility of decline. This concept, contained in the new book, Brand Momentum, explores the inevitable decline of brands and offers strategic insights into how businesses can stave off this decline and even achieve rebirth, for example:

  • Understanding Brand Mortality: All brands, regardless of their strength or market dominance, face a decline phase. This realisation should be a staple in every brand manager’s toolkit.
  • Factors Leading to Decline: Common causes for brand decline include competition, changing market dynamics, lack of innovation, and negative public perception.
  • The Importance of Relevance: Maintaining brand relevance is crucial. Brands must adapt to market changes and continuously engage with their audience.
  • Brand Resuscitation Strategies: There are ways to rejuvenate a declining brand, such as innovation, market diversification, and rebranding efforts.

“A brand is always most potent when it stands for one thing in the customer’s mind.” – Brand Momentum
