Book Description

4 Jan 2004
Kevin Roberts passionately believes that love is the way forward for business. Here he recounts the journey from products to trademarks to brands - and the urgency of taking the next step - to Lovemarks. His argument is that brands, numbed by the assault of commodification and customer indifference, have run out of juice. The solution? The creation of products and experiences that will create long-term emotional relationships with consumers. To this end, Roberts advocates infusing brands with the fundamental Lovemark elements: Mystery, Sensuality, and Intimacy.

2.0 out of 5 stars Vacuous 26 Oct 2006
Format:Hardcover
Gaaaa-wd! This is a beautifully designed and prepared book and looks lovely in its gleaming red cover in the offices I have seen it in (given away free as a promo' of course) but it needs to look good. Take the pretty pictures away and you are left with a hollow re-hashed idea that first surfaced many decades ago.
I read it over a couple of evenings one weekend and was staggered at how little it has to say. Take away the pictures and 'air space' and there really is very little copy - barely a leaflet or magazines worth.
This really is design over content

1.0 out of 5 stars Tosh 4 July 2006
Format:Hardcover
One of the most profoundly pretentious and embarrassing books ever written on brands and advertising:- a heady mix of vanity, vapidity and cant. Nice pictures
