Brand Management as a Strategic Business Asset: New Branding Leadership Guidance

Oct 23, 2026

Multi-award-winning creative agency LO:LA is tackling brand management in its latest thought leadership piece for business owners and branding and marketing professionals.

El Segundo, United States, October 23, 2026 /PressCable/ -- London: Los Angeles (LO:LA) has published a new expert guide on brand management as part of its ongoing series of leadership articles on topics relevant to the creative industry, examining how creativity functions as a strategic business asset.

More information is available at https://thelolaagency.com/the-power-of-brand-management-unleashing-creativity-to-drive-business-success/

A representative from the agency explained that the latest piece was written to challenge how brand management is commonly understood in business circles. "Brand management is often treated as a cosmetic function, something that makes a company look good," a LO:LA spokesperson said. "Our article makes the case that it is actually one of the most direct levers a business has on its bottom line, and that creativity is the mechanism that makes it work."

The article opens by establishing what brand management actually encompasses: not just logos and taglines, but the full strategic discipline of building and maintaining a brand's identity, positioning, and perceived value in the market. From there, it explores how brand identity works at a deeper level, drawing on examples from Apple and Nike to illustrate how a coherent visual and verbal language creates immediate emotional recognition rather than just aesthetic appeal.

The piece also covers brand positioning, stating that creativity is what separates genuine differentiation from category noise. The Dove Real Beauty campaign is cited as a concrete example of how a creative positioning decision translated directly into market share. The article then turns to brand communication across advertising, social media, and content marketing, examining how creative approaches in each channel have produced measurable commercial outcomes, from Old Spice's sales recovery to Oreo's real-time Super Bowl response to Red Bull's content-led brand expansion.

The latter sections address brand equity and the financial case for creative investment, using LEGO's turnaround as a real-world example of how creative strategy applied at an organizational level can reverse a company's financial trajectory entirely.

Publisher LO:LA is a BBB A+ rated, multi-award-winning brand and creative agency operating out of El Segundo, California, and Mayfair, London. The agency has earned recognition across the industry's most competitive awards programs, including Gold and Silver Davey Awards, Gold Transform Awards, and an Award of Excellence at the 32nd Annual Communicator Awards, among many others.

Southeast Asia’s EV boom sidelines local car parts suppliers

Southeast Asia’s electric vehicle boom risks leaving the region’s smaller companies behind, as Chinese automotive giants bypass local part-makers in favour of imported components and locked-in supplier networks. Local manufacturers across Indonesia, Thailand and Malaysia are facing a double squeeze: demand is weakening for parts used in petrol and diesel cars, collectively known as internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles, while steep barriers to entry also keep them out of EV supply...

SI is the future of AI – just not in the way Trump thinks

With US President Donald Trump recently pushing the use of “superintelligence” (SI) instead of artificial intelligence (AI) in national discourse, the acronym has gained unprecedented attention. It is the right acronym but the wrong meaning. In my opinion, SI should stand for “self-intelligence”. It probably explains why academics, critics and even major AI companies are calling for a temporary pause in AI development. They must have realised the technology’s current trajectory is headed down...

Delegates cheered on Friday as crucial texts were approved in overtime but the celebrations were tempered by acrimonious debates and regret over limited progress on some of the most contentious issues. The Cop17 summit in Armenia sought to revive a landmark commitment to halt and reverse...

Both Japan and China can help Bangladesh reach its full potential

In the Land of the Rising Sun, Bangladesh looks forward to a new dawn. The hope that comes with Prime Minister Tarique Rahman’s visit to Japan goes beyond the deals signed or the financial support expected. It shows a country that has emerged from authoritarian rule and wants to turn its new political voice into bigger economic chances and freedom of choice. For a government chosen by the people, foreign policy must answer one question: how does it make life better for the people who gave it...
