Summary: Brand Desire by Kevin Perlmutter is a comprehensive playbook for senior leaders who want to build brands that deliver measurable and sustainable growth by placing emotional intelligence at the heart of strategy. The book blends data-driven insight, behavioural science and practical frameworks to demonstrate how customer emotions can be harnessed as a powerful driver of loyalty, differentiation and long-term brand equity. Perlmutter draws on interviews and examples from a wide range of organisations, from arts centres and service providers to emotionally intelligent brands such as Lemonade Insurance, Trader Joe’s, Zappos, Cutco, Bose and Ben & Jerry’s. Through these cases, he illustrates how aligning brand strategy with emotional drivers can deepen customer connections and unlock competitive advantage. Readers are introduced to evidence-based models and step-by-step tools for strengthening positioning, applying behavioural science, and building governance structures that ensure consistency in brand delivery. The book also emphasises accountability, showing how to track progress, measure ROI and demonstrate the tangible business impact of emotionally intelligent brand building. With its mix of theory, practice, and actionable guidance, Brand Desire equips executives to rethink traditional approaches, inspire loyalty, safeguard brand equity and achieve sustainable growth in an evolving market landscape. It is both a practical manual and a strategic reflection on the role of emotional insight in modern brand leadership.
