Wolfgang Schaefer and J.P. Kuehlwein
Rethinking Prestige Branding
Secrets of the Ueber-Brands
Kogan Page, 2015
What's inside?
Luxury brands navigate the terrain of modern prestige by adapting and venturing into new territory.
Recommendation
Brand experts Wolfgang Schaefer and J.P. Kuehlwein interviewed industry leaders, experts and brand specialists, and analyzed more than 100 case studies to identify seven principles that “Ueber-Brands” follow to dominate the redefined prestige landscape. The German authors use the Anglicized version of “über,” which means “above and beyond” in German. Though this is not an especially easy or quick read, their insights and sardonic tone will keep you turning the pages. Their summary of premium branding rules and the case studies at the end of each chapter will help you digest the lessons. getAbstract considers this work essential reading for anyone working in the premium sector.
