The Brand-Self-Seven Brand Identity Planning Model: Brand Relationships

 

 

 The Brand Relationship block describes the mode of conduct and operation a brand aims to establish with its target customers and other stakeholders. It impacts the way a brand behaves, delivers services and communicates with customers. Companies like Uber created competitive advantages by disrupting the established relational roles in their industry (from driver/passenger to entrepreneur/supporter).
