Sounds like branding

So, it's vacation time here in Sweden, and that for me means a lot of reading.

I've just finished reading Sounds like branding, by Jakob Lusensky.

It's a book, that talks about how your brand "sounds" and how that affects your customers and can make them interact more with your brand. Very interesting, and I really like that he talks about lovemarks. Lovemarks is one of the reasons I actually decided to start blogging, because when I read about the concept, on a trip to New York some time ago, I got amazed and wanted to explore the marketing/branding world more. The word in itself is also what inspired me to name this blog (and my company) to LoveEvent.

Now this blog has come to be about a lot more than lovemarks, but nevertheless, the word means a lot to me. :)

Swedish Sensory Marketing

I have earlier written about sensory branding (the use of all five senses in marketing campaigns), and now there is a Swedish book on this topic. I got my hands on "Sinnesmarknadsföring" ("Sensory Marketing") yesterday, and I'm really looking forward to reading it. The book is written by Bertil Hultén, Niklas Broweus and Marcus van Dijk, and it was voted Swedens best marketing book of the year in 2008, so I can't wait!

P.S. (They have also translated the book to English)
