Bitesized actionable thoughts on branding. It began as a weekly Instagram under the hashtag #BrandTherapyThursday. You're better off looking up the hashtag and saving yourself the $17. This is one of those books that would have been better as an in depth blog post.
I believe there are only two relevant authors on branding at the moment. One is Marty Neumeier, and the other is Fabian Geyrhalter.
Fabian’s books are packed with super high quality content, that will stand the test of time. I highly recommend anyone to read them all—not once, but many times—and use them as reference.
The Brand Therapy Book is another great example how you can explore branding on another level. The book is packed with great ideas that you can use as reference to delight clients, higher-ups, or simply help yourself to a greater understanding on branding as a whole.
This short, to the point book is a must read for anyone that is serious on branding.
As someone who just knew branding and got interest to know what branding it, I found Fabian as a surprise on Youtube and started to read his book. The brand therapy book is not just talking about brand but it also provides insight on how startup/business can actually integrate the branding strategy together with other management strategy to build the brand from inside to outside. Each piece of the therapy worth for you to spend time to think deeper and it is like explore new territory of your unknown area or discover the blindspot of what branding is doing. I am still reading, and planned to re-read again.
