This is the 4th Edition of the book of Brand Management explaining about Competitive marketing is all about war, warriors and wealth. Marketers, in their bid to generate more wealth, have always struggled to discover new product/service `warriors` that would effectively decimate competition. However, the decimation of competition is not the end in itself. It is through the destruction of competition in the markets from where the springs of wealth would emanate. Brands are new business warriors. They destroy competition and strike where the source of wealth is. Brands drive corporate performance. When the role of other conventional assets gets marginalised in winning the `marketing war`, marketers look up to brands for making their bottom lines black. Thus, modern-day marketing is all about the creation and management of brands.
