As we move into the twenty-first century the most important question for businesses everywhere is: What are we going to do about the Internet? This book is the result of the authors' hands-on work with both large and small companies as well as Internet start-ups and established Internet brands. Brash, bold, and mercifully succinct, 'The 11 Immutable Laws Of Internet Branding' is the definitive text for businesses eager to jump on the Internet expressway.
You'll learn why:
- the Internet can be a business or a medium for your brand, but not both
- interactivity is the single most important ingredient of any Internet site
- the kiss of death for an Internet brand is a common name
- being second in a category is tantamount to being nowhere
- you have to be fast, you have to be first, you have to be focused
- everyone is talking about convergence while just the opposite is happening.
You'll also gain tangible information on how to successfully build your company, product, service or self into a hot and profitable brand on the Internet. Specifically you'll learn how to:
- build a brand that will dominate a category over an extended period of time
- find a proper name (instead of a common one) for your website
- take your brand into the global marketplace
- avoid the biggest mistake in Internet branding: the belief that you can do everything
