In this marketing saturated, distraction economy, strong brands still command higher profit margins. But getting meaningful attention is harder than ever. The advertising interruption model has propagated far outside the bounds of the original bargain of “ads paying for program creation.”

In #1 Amazon ranked Appreciated Branding, Reid applies his 30+ years as a creative ad executive and introduces a revolutionary new concept for a time where a new approach is desperately needed. For businesses. And consumers. By breaking the current strategic and creative system and putting it back together for a time when we’re all getting pelted with 10,000 ad messages a day, Reid’s book and process makes marketing fun, engaging and impactful again.

Appreciated Branding employs insightful anecdotes, case studies, and actionable strategies. Use Reid’s roadmap to transform your brand into one that is not only financially successful but also deeply resonant.

What you’ll learn in this book:

• How to get better results without higher marketing spend.

• How to make your performance marketing perform better without raising your budget.

• The Unique Emotional Solution and how it fits into the Brand Appreciation Pyramid.

• How solving bigger problems for your customers helps your brand break through and earn new devoted fans.

And much more.
