Brand Mover
by Marc Paulenich
Most brands know how to capture attention. Few know how to hold it, and even fewer know how to transform it into loyalty that lasts.
In Brand Mover: How to Lead Audiences from Apathy to Advocacy, marketing veteran Marc Paulenich presents a framework that goes beyond traditional marketing funnels to address the real challenge facing today’s brands: customer indifference.
Drawing on decades of agency leadership and client success stories spanning healthcare to hospitality, Paulenich introduces the Brand Mover model. The model guides customers through four critical emotional stages: Apathy, Awareness, Alignment, and Advocacy.
Inside, you’ll discover:
* How to break through the noise in an oversaturated marketplace
* Align brand strategy with authentic storytelling
* Create emotional signals that resonate across every touchpoint
* Transform passive customers into active brand champions
Written for CMOs, marketing directors, and business leaders who recognize that sustainable growth comes from relationships, not just transactions, Brand Mover provides actionable strategies grounded in real-world results. Whether you’re launching a new brand, revitalizing an established one, or seeking to deepen customer relationships, this book shows you how to move audiences from indifference to advocacy—and build a brand that people genuinely care about.
