Memorable Moment
“ “Everybody seems to be Brand-washed.”
— Stan Bernard, MD, MBA

  • We’re not playing their game; we are creating our own game.
  • Transcenders create their own game and force their competitors to play it.

On Branding Podcast

“The premise of the book is that certain successful companies use quite a different approach than regular companies. You analyze bigger brands like Apple, Starbucks, or Peloton, and explain to us why is that they were able to change the game and that they don't play the same game of brand differentiation like most companies do. But rather they play their own game and are able to rise above the competition, which you compare to how politicians conduct their elections. You call these successful companies ‘Transcenders’ and regular ones ‘Traditionalists.’”

Enterprise Podcast Network

Listen to host Eric Dye and guest Dr. Stan Bernard discuss the following:

  • The title of your book Brands Don’t Win is definitely contrarian and seems to go against what we all believe about branding. Why don’t brands win?
  • The book explains the Transcender System – a unique, three-step system that you’ve developed. Can you explain it and tell us how it can change any organization or brand?
  • Can you give us some examples of companies that use the Transcender System effectively?
  • In the book you draw parallels between branding and politics – and political campaigns. Can you explain why?
  • Is the Transcender System a marketing strategy or a company-wide initiative? Can it work for brands or companies of any size or in any market?
  • Where do you see branding heading in 2022 and beyond? Do you see any trends taking shape that brands need to start planning for?

Author Hour Podcast

"Virtually every company’s playing brand checkers. When every company’s playing the same game, and specifically a simple game such as checkers, it’s very difficult to win. What I explain in Brands Don’t Win is that you can break out of the brand jail, get rid of the brand cuffs, and play your own game by using the Transcender System to create a game only your company can win and force your competitors to respond to you."
