The Language of Branding: Theory, Strategies and Tactics shows marketers how to use language successfully to improve brand value and influence consumer behavior.

Luna and Lerman are among only a few researchers who take a multidisciplinary perspective on the ways language influences how consumers act. Together with Morais, an anthropologist engaged in market research, they show how understanding the power of language can impact the essence – and sales – of a brand. The book covers the fundamentals of brand language and applications for an array of marketing initiatives. Readers will learn why brand language matters, how language is used in marketing, and how to build a brand strategy that capitalizes on the richness and complexity of language.

This book includes real-world case histories that demonstrate vividly how brand language is created and exercises that enable both students of marketing and marketing professionals to apply the book’s concepts and stimulate class discussion. The Language of Branding: Theory, Strategies and Tactics can be used in a number of courses, including consumer behavior, branding, advertising, linguistics, and communications.

This is a very clear, engaging, and thorough investigation of brand language. The authors include excellent real-world examples to illustrate concepts, discuss important managerial implications, and provide exercises that make the text highly useful for classes at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. - Tina Lowrey, HEC Paris, France The authors have managed a masterful balance between theoretical rigor and practical relevance and between tactical detail and big-picture strategic insight. Highly recommended to anyone interested in brand management or in the role of linguistics in commercial contexts. - Stefano Puntoni, Rotterdam School of Management, The Netherlands This is an important and approachable exploration of resonant communications in the 21st century marketplace. Dawn Lerman, Robert Morais and David Luna systematically assemble insightful, imaginatve and interdisciplinary approaches to help readers better understand culturally-situated relationships of people and of brands in contemporary society. - Max Boykoff, University of Colorado-Boulder, USA
