Syllabus - What you will learn from this course
Introduction to branding: Segmentation.
In this module, students will be welcomed to the course and introduced to what makes a brand and how they are built. They will explore how we decide upon which brands we love and hate and how that affects our perception of the brand. Finally they will look at segmentation and the iceberg model and how they can zero in on the correct consumer.
DEFINING THE VALUE
In module 2, students will learn what positioning is and how they can use positioning statements to attract consumers to their brand. They will learn what a good and bad positioning statement is and how they can build a strong perceptual map.
BUILDING A BRAND HOUSE
In module 3, students will gain an introduction to brand houses and be shown examples of some of the most interesting ones available to the public. They will start to explore brand personality and image and finally begin to create their own brand houses for a brand that they love.

About the Branding: The Creative Journey Specialization
This Specialization aims to make branding concepts accessible to every learner and to teach them to analyze and apply all the relevant concepts, using the broad and diverse toolkit of branding. It provides you with the necessary tools so that you are able to understand the brand behavior, understand the language of a brand and learn about the rational and emotional elements behind brands. It also attempts to make you understand the language of images. The amount of audiovisual content we receive today makes it hard for brands to break through that noise. It ends up teaching how to understand branding efforts in the context of customer experience.
