What Charles Darwin did for biology, Al and Laura Ries do for branding.
In their exciting new book, The Origin of Brands, the Rieses take Darwin's revolutionary idea of evolution and apply it to the branding process. What results is a new and strikingly effective strategy for creating innovative products, building a successful brand, and, in turn, achieving business success.Here, the Rieses explain how changing conditions in the marketplace create endless opportunities to build new brands and accumulate riches. But these opportunities cannot be found where most people and most companies look. That is, in the convergence of existing categories like television and the computer, the cellphone and the Internet.
Instead, opportunity lies in the opposite direction—in divergence. By following Darwin's brilliant deduction that new species arise from divergence of an existing species, the Rieses outline an effective strategy for creating and taking to market an effective brand. In The Origin of Brands, you will learn how to:
Divide and conquerExploit divergenceUse the theories of survival of the firstest and survival of the secondestHarness the power of pruning Using insightful studies of failed convergence products and engaging success stories of products that have achieved worldwide success through divergence, the Rieses have written the definitive book on branding. The Origin of Brands will show you in depth how to build a great brand and will lead you to success in the high-stakes world of branding.

    What matters is not what’s on the market. What matters is what’s in the mind.

    Forget hindsight. This book was written to improve your foresight. To show you that you don’t need to be a visionary to predict the future.

    wasn’t ABC, CBS, or NBC that started ESPN, the first cable-television sports network. It was Scott Rasmussen and his father, Bill Rasmussen, who launched ESPN with a $9,000 cash advance on a credit card.
