The 22 Immutable Laws of Branding

How do you beat Amazon? You narrow the focus. Rather than try to be the best online bookstore, you become the best business books site. This strategy can be counter-intuitive. The 22 Immutable Laws of Branding is full of insightful nuggets you can use.

What I like most about the book is that it gives concrete examples that resonate and it's advice you can apply whether you're improving your own personal brand or something bigger. It contains a lot of timeless principles so the time you spend learning can payoff over the years to come. I like to think I have more branding time ahead of me than behind me.
