"A brand is the collective perceptions of those who matter. Every touch-point is an opportunity to enhance or denigrate your brand".
Whilst doing research for the Media Relations and Corporate Branding conference I will be chairing next week, I stumbled across this profound introduction made at the AMA American Management Association conference on 'Branding Strategies and Tactics' by Conference Chairman Scott Davis, Managing Partner of Prophet:
Branding yourself, your organisation and/or your product must be considered at 'every touch-point' you encounter. Also remembering that your brand moves on with whomever you have interacted with.
We should never loose sight of the fact that Africa is our biggest brand!
On 28-29 September in Sandton, South Africa, at the Hilton Sandton, AMC International will be presenting a Media Relations and Corporate Branding conference, chaired by yours truly. This conference will address a host of issues presented by experts and professionals in this field.

For Africa to succeed in her efforts to develop and prosper ALL of Africa need to take hands.
The Foundation for the Development of Africa is in need of your support - our efforts are subjected to the same expenses/cost associated with any other business.
