Inhomogeneous, sophisticated and increasingly fragmented consumer preferences, along with proliferating numbers of novel products and services which target similar needs, put marketing executives at a hard test: positioning the organization’s products and services in a truly competitive manner in order to squeeze out maximum value.

Undoubtedly, brand-driven organizations enjoy higher competitive advantage and higher margins than their low-branded peers, but how to maintain, enhance or, even, achieve the high-branded status and, more important, how to leverage on this is the ultimate challenge.

In order achieve these; marketers need to deeply understand and assess the true needs and values of consumers and to adapt the marketing strategy accordingly. Faltering product-lines, over-complex or, on the contrary, underdeveloped product or service ranges corroborated with bad positioning or inadequate launching are surely affecting brand equity, thus profits, although not clearly expressed in financial statements.
