Asst. Prof. Dr. Sarp Bağcan, expresses the following statements in the preface of the book;
“Marketing communication and integrated marketing communication, which makes marketing communication easier to define and implement it more systematically, are very important concepts. Since either we know that a brand has been popular for years or we suddenly see a brand enter our lives. We have different brands, products and services on different shelves in our minds. We take them them from the shelves in case of request and need. Moreover, we are not alone, millions or even a few billions of people experience this situation, from our closest surroundings to the remotest parts of the world that we do not know. They also have similar things on their mind shelves, different ones too. Who puts these on mind shelves around the world? This book is a kind of journey of trying to understand them. We tried to explain how global brands convey themselves to billions of people around the world.”
In this context, the book examines important examples from the global brand lists of structures that work on brands such as Interbrand, BrandZ and Deloitte on a global scale.
