Since a brand is an embodiment of meanings projected by the self, we perhaps consume to give meaning to our life.

Brand building is a process of earning commitment of the consumer to the brand. And this would require (since brand is a emotionally loaded knowledge structure), getting highly personal and positive meanings (even forbidden ones…..like “lambada”) projected onto the product; thus becoming the “other self” of the consumer. A brand then is an embodiment of projected meanings of a consumer and thus reflection of his self image. A brand then has to be like a mirror, a mirror which can show the consumer his “wanted reality”.

What if there were a “universal” fundamental right….”THE RIGHT TO DIGNIFIED LIVING” and what if all the nations came together to form a “World Government” for this cause????????????????????????

Businesses are a subset of society and therefore humanity; who are sanctioned by society to SERVE its ends… viz. wellbeing and prosperity…….these days it appears that the tail is wagging the……………. perhaps incentives are needed to focus on the purpose of sustainability of society/ humanity
