Brand managment is the art and voodoo of creating a certain set of expectations for a name for a product or service, and the art and voodoo of managing the changes to this expectation set over the course of years. It is a subspecialty of marketing.

Manufacturers of cars, clothes, and cosmetics are among those industries where brand managment is crucial, because consumers do not, as a rule, make buying decisions for these items based on functional characteristics.

The timeless nature of a brand or logo gives it a quasi-religious nature. They stand as capitalism's only symbol of eternity. RobGraves
