Luxury is in fashion and is now to be found in almost every retail, manufacturing and service sector. New terms like "mass-luxury," "new luxury" and "hyper luxury" attempt to qualify luxury. But if everything is luxury then surely the term itself has no meaning! There is confusion today about what really makes a luxury product, a luxury brand or a luxury company. The Luxury Strategy analyzes in depth the essence of luxury, highlights its managerial implications and rationalizes the highly original methods – often very far from the usual marketing strategies – used to transform small family businesses such as Ferrari, BMW, Louis Vuitton, Cartier, Chanel, Armani or Ralph Lauren into worldwide successes. The Luxury Strategy clarifies the difference between "premium," "fashion," and "luxury," and sets out the counter-intuitive rules for successfully marketing luxury goods and services. Luxury experts Jean-Noel Kapferer and Vincent Bastien provide the first rigorous blueprint for effectively managing luxury brands and companies at the highest level, including human resources and financial management. Finally, The Luxury Strategy unveils how in any market, including B to B, a company can learn from luxury strategies to differentiate itself profitably.

Are the 'classical' rules of brand management obsolete? These rules were created over 50 years ago in the United States under very different market conditions and realities. Since then, textbooks and current thinking have been replete with the same simplistic models of branding, which are looking incresingly out of date.

Adopted internationally by business schools, MBA programs, and marketing practitioners, The New Strategic Brand Management is the reference source of choice for senior strategists, positioning professionals and postgraduate students. Over the years it has established a reputation as one of the leading works on brand strategy. The fifth edition builds on this impressive reputation and keeps the book at the forefront of strategic brand thinking, with dedicated sections for specific types of brands (luxury, corporate and retail), international examples, and case studies from companies such as Audi, Nivea, Toyota and Absolut Vodka. Explaining the latest techniques used by companies worldwide, author Jean-Noel Kapferer covers all the leading issues faced by brand strategists today. With both gravitas and intelligent insight, the book reveals new thinking on topics such as putting culture and content into brands, the impact of private labels, the new dynamics of targeting and the comeback of local brands.

Firma Procter and Gamble je ve spojení s ďáblem - jen se podívejte na její symbol, kolik je v něm satanských znamení! Lepidlo na samolepkách pro děti obsahuje LSD! Prezident je nevyléčitelně nemocný! Mezi banány v samoobsluze byl had a uštkl dítě! Fáma, fáma, fáma... Toto slovo vyvolává ve veřejnosti představu záhadného, téměř magického jevu. Už rozbor běžných slovních spojení je v tomto ohledu příznačný: fáma běží, koluje, šíří se, objevuje se. Je to zvíře překvapivé, hbité a nedostižitelné. Její působení na lidi se v mnohém podobá hypnóze: fascinuje, podmaňuje a svádí. Hlavní tezí knihy je, že takováto koncepce je zcela mylná. Fámy nejsou žádná záhada, řídí se pevnou logikou a mnohdy nahrazují nedostatečnou oficiální informaci. Za jejich tajemstvím je možné vysledovat skryté poselství. Kniha poprvé vyšla v roce 1987 a od té doby byla již přeložena do mnoha jazyků. Poslední vydání (vztaženo k roku 1990), je rozšířené o doslov shrnující poslední výzkumy, fámy a moderní městské legendy.
