Emotionally and culturally they're going to need to be more significant."

"Despite what many marketers and retailers may think, it’s not all about price — consumers find value in feeling smart about purchase decisions and investing in brands they trust."
"Logos have become less official-looking and more conversational. “They’re not yelling. They’re inviting. They’re more neighborly."
