Case studies and examples of successful global marketers from McDonald's and Coca-Cola to Levi's, Ford, and others highlight global branding successes and failures and outline a path to success in what has become the hottest, most high-stakes marketing prerogative of the new borderless economy.

Praise for Branding Across Borders

"We at Omron have first hand experience in utilizing Jim Gregory's methods within our company.

"The globalized world is now with us. This new book reflects much of Jim Gregory's latest thinking and experience with its various issues, especially those of global branding. Branding Across Borders is not only informative, but, unlike so many other 'business' books, it is highly readable."
--Bill Kupper, President and Publisher, BusinessWeek, From the Foreword

For today's marketer, futurist Marshall McLuhan's "global village" has grown from a concept into a reality. International borders are shrinking and even disappearing altogether, and marketing techniques and strategies designed for U.S. audiences must now be adapted for diverse cultural, economic, and political environments and consumers.

Branding is among the most critical--and difficult to control--of such techniques. Jim Gregory's Branding Across Borders provides marketers with key insights and hands-on strategies for developing powerful, memorable, and successful global brands. And because effective branding doesn't exist in a vacuum, this step-by-step handbook goes beyond the brand itself to address how marketers can fine-tune their own organizational structures to effectively extend and manage brands in the global marketplace.

From reestablishing an existing brand internationally to developing an online brand that coordinates and complements an existing brand, decision-makers from communications officers to CEOs can turn to Branding Across Borders for the latest information on topics including:

• How Digital Asset Management (DAM) can assure consistency and relevance in all forms of brand communications
• Integrating brands during an international merger
• Avoiding creative pitfalls in cross-cultural brand advertising
• The appointment of a "Chief Branding Officer" to oversee the effective management of brands
• Three unique approaches to the creation and promotion of online brands

The establishment of a strong, flexible global brand will not assure victory in the hard-fought global marketing wars, but the absence of such a brand will almost certainly guarantee failure. Branding Across Borders explores many of today's most pressing issues and challenges and presents a template for talking to prospects from Montana to Montevideo in a language they understand--the language of a universally understood and ultimately rewarding overall brand message.
