About the book

Kevin Roberts, chief executive of the advertising agency Saatchi & Saatchi, contends that brands have run out of juice and that love can rescue them. He offers the lovemark as their replacement and sorts the market by respect and love: commodities earn neither, fads attract love without respect, brands earn respect without love, and lovemarks command both. The route there runs through mystery, which draws on stories, dreams and icons; sensuality, which works through all five senses; and intimacy, built on commitment, empathy and passion. A revised edition added a chapter on shopping as an emotional experience, titled Diamonds in the Mine. Saatchi & Saatchi won a $430 million JC Penney contract on the strength of the lovemarks idea.
