Branding Brings Value to Clients Companies…

The rationale for building a strong brand lies in the fact that in every corporate valuation the key component of the value of a company is based on its “blue sky value”…its “brand value”.

Greater Brand Value = Greater Corporate Market Value.

Normally you will find that the average market valuation for a brand from various Dow Jones Stocks is based on:

70% is based on Brand & Intangible Asset value

30% is based on the Tangible Asset value / Book Value

The goal of any strong brand consulting company is to leverage all the goodwill and intangible assets to enhance the corporate tangible value (“Blue Sky Value”)
