If you want to create advocates for your brands, you have to advocate for them first. So the question you must ask is, "Who are you for?"

P & G doesn't just make diapers, wipes, toothpaste, soap, beauty products and detergents. They are for moms.

Organic Valley doesn't just sell food. They are for farmers.
Want to create passionate, loyal fans who are willing to pay more and advocate for your brand?
