The Mythic Status Brand Model: Blending brain science and mythology to create a new brand strategy tool

Bruce Tait

Journal of Brand Strategy, 2012, vol. 1, issue 4, 377-388

Abstract: There is no brand strategy job more fundamental than defining and articulating the core meaning behind a brand. If this is not done properly then all the execution that flows from that brand strategy is wasted effort and money. This paper shows how brand models can be important tools to help forge more profound and more differentiated brand strategy ideas because they provide new lenses for looking at a brand. This paper explains Tait Subler's journey in creating the Mythic Status Brand Model by merging insights from modern brain science with lessons from ancient mythology. It demonstrates the successful application of the model for the Gucci brand.
