THE BRAND-CONSUMER RELATIONSHIP is a critical asset
that requires constant vigilance to develop and protect.
When you seek to improve your performance in a given
activity, how do you do it? Do you just work harder
(in general) or do you identify your strengths and
weaknesses and work on the latter? Take golf-if you
want to improve your score, your scorecard only tells
you how many strokes you take per hole. But if you
track your driving distances, your fairway strokes,
your approach shots and your putts, now you will better
understand where you need to focus your efforts.

indicated that up to 80% of the
brand-consumer relationship begins at the point
of sale! Click
