Book excerpt: If customers LIKE your brand, be afraid. Be very afraid. In a world where the average customer grows up seeing 170,000 marketing messages by her 17th birthday; where 86% of people admit to sharing social media content in the bathroom; where less than 1% of young people trust advertising; customers only talk about the brands they LOVE. And, if customers aren't talking about your brand, you might as well not exist. What is Brand Love? There are 18,000,000 photos on Instagram tagged #starbucks. Not one is paid for by Starbucks. When Chinese mobile brand Xiaomi launched their new tablet, stock sold out in 2.7 seconds Monster Energy drinks has become the most successful energy drinks brand in the US, without a single dollar spent on advertising. LEGO continues to defy critics and analyst expectations selling billions of dollars of analog toys in the digital age. All these stories are made possible by Brand Love. Fans don't just "like" these brands, they love them. And the good news is that it's neither expensive or exclusive to cool cutting-edge brands. Brand Love is as achievable to all brands. Whether you're an airline or selling energy drinks, Brand Love is a guide to help you build a brand worth talking about. Written by an ex-telecoms CEO, the head of marketing for one of the world's fastest growing soda brands and a digital anthropologist, Brand Love is a journey that takes you around the world from the US to China in search of the brands both fans and industry analysts are talking about.
