What is a brand?

“A brand is a living entity, and it is enriched or undermined cumulatively over time, the product of a thousand small gestures.” – Michael Eisner

Michael Eisner was Disney CEO from 1984 to 2005. In my years of studying marketing, I was surprised I haven’t come across his definition of a ‘brand’ before. I came across this statement while reading Maxwell’s The 17 Indisputable Laws of Teamwork.

In the coming days, I’ll post a short article about the biggest and most revered brands in the Philippines and try to illustrate how these brands influence Filipinos’ choices as consumers.
