A lawsuit, an environmental accident or a competitive action can be sufficient to trigger a sudden loss in Brand Value. Companies need to prepare for that, not only by putting in place measures of crisis preparedness, but also by nurturing and measuring Brang Value consistently. |

Systematic Brand Value management in going-concern
There are two major approaches to managing financial Brand Value: top-down from a grand market capitalization point-of-view and bottom-up, from an activity-driven point-of-view. Both have advantages and disadvantages. The visual below relates to a typical question relating to the bottom-up approach. |

Which visual is more valuable?
Out of the two visuals above: which one is more valuable to the corporation and thus the shareholders: the one left showing the breaking chocolate oor the one at the right with the chocolate splash? - This is a typical question out of many which companies face in a bottom-up approach, used often for companies in going-concern or prior to IPO's. |

Too little too late
Firms that are not well prepared for crisis often also recognize the onset of a crisis too late. As a result, too little is done in the first place. As the crisis becomes obvious harsh budget cuts are needed, leaving little leeway to rebuild the brand afterwards. -It is better to be prepared for crises at all times and keep cost in check, including those for marketing. |
