With brand managers under increasing pressure to achieve more with ever stretched budgets, the imperative of growing more value through brands is paramount. A more creative approach is needed which finds new ways of growing brand value.

Managers are now thinking differently and are using creative routes to generate value for their customers and owners.

They are questioning whether their brand still has a valuable point of difference for their customers. They are working to find authentic differences which achieve a "wow" amongst customers. Using insightful frameworks about the drivers of value, they are questioning the traditional ways of delivering value and instead are finding new sources of sustainable value. They are achieving leaps in customer value through new sources and new/redesigned business models. New ways of competing are emerging, based on changed customer behaviour.
