Research has shown that entrepreneurship has a positive impact on productivity and competitiveness. In the face of the recent global downturn, the service sector remains a dominant force continuously creating a wealth of new jobs. Within this service sector, owners/managers are persistently building their brand and bringing positive branding experiences.

This is an area of study in its infancy and this book is a step towards providing evidence of the importance and relevance of branding to SMEs.
