Best explanation I've seen of what makes a "brand" By Scott Thomas, via @jessicahische https://t.co/noYygFHMdZ

If Nike announced that they were opening a hotel, you’d have a pretty good guess about what it would be like. But if Hyatt announced that they were going to start making shoes, you would have NO IDEA WHATSOEVER what those shoes would be like. That’s because Nike owns a brand and Hyatt simply owns real estate.
