Flow-charts are also used extensively to highlight the step-by-step methodology applied by industry professionals to create a brand.The content of the book has been derived from Catharine Slade-Brooking own experience of entering the world of branding as a graduate and having to learn the hard way, 'on the job'.

The book has been recommended across a wide range of university courses, from graphic design school to animation, digital media, textiles and interior design. It includes a full glossary of brand terminology and a list of recommended further reading.
