Consumers to Each Other Connects Them to Your
Brand
56Men and women dont think the same way, dont
communicate the same way, dont buy for the same
reasons.He simply wants the transaction to
take place. Shes interested in creating a
relationship. Every place women go, they make
connections.Faith Popcorn
57The Connection Proclivity in women starts
early. When asked, How was school today? a girl
usually tells her mother every detail of what
happened, while a boy might grunt, Fine.
EVEolution
58Women speak and hear a language of connection
and intimacy, and men speak and hear a language
of status and independence. Men communicate to
obtain information,establish their status, and
show independence. Women communicate to create
relationships, encourage interaction, and
exchange feelings.Judy Rosener, Americas
Competitive Secret
59Women dont buy brands. They join them.Faith
Popcorn, EVEolution
60STATEMENT OF PHILOSOPHY I am a businessperson.
An analyst. A pragmatist. The enormous social
good of increased womens power is clear to me
but it is not my bailiwick. My game is
haranguing business leaders about my fact-based
conviction that womens increasing power
leadership skills and purchasing power is the
strongest and most dynamic force at work in the
American economy today. Dare I say it as a

77WHO ARE YOU these days ?TP to Client
78Most companies tend to equate branding with the
companys marketing. Design a new marketing
campaign and, voila, youre on course. They are
wrong. The task is much bigger. It is about
fulfilling our potential not about a new logo,
no matter how clever. WHAT IS MY MISSION IN
LIFE? WHAT DO I WANT TO CONVEY TO PEOPLE? HOW
DO I MAKE SURE THAT WHAT I HAVE TO OFFER THE
WORLD IS ACTUALLY UNIQUE? The brand has to give
of itself, the company has to give of itself, the
management has to give of itself. To put it
bluntly, it is a matter of whether or not you
want to be UNIQUE NOW.Jesper Kunde, A
Unique Moment
79Message REAL Branding is personal. REAL
Branding is integrity. REAL Branding is
consistency freshness. REAL Branding is the
answer to WHO ARE WE? WHY ARE WE HERE? REAL
Branding is why I/you/we all get out of bed in
the morning. REAL Branding cant be faked.
REAL Branding is a systemic, 24/7, all
departments, all hands affair.
