Brand management 101 - Mainak Dhar

Many years ago, I developed a fascination for martial arts. I started reading books that promised to teach self defense and soon I was practicing he steps at home. A few months later, I joined karate classes, and whey my sensei started teaching theory to the class, I thought I already knew it all.

And then I had my first sparring bout. All the theory I had learned, all the practice I had done at home, all the things I thought I knew about karate dissipated in one single moment. That was when I tasted my own blood.

That was my first experience of how theory sometimes leaves you unprepared for the real world. Marketing is no different.
