  11. Quotes on On-Line Branding • “Brands stand as comfort anchors in the sea of confusion, fear and doubt. In dynamic markets, strong brands have more value than ever, precisely because of the speed with which these markets move.” -- Chuck Pettis, Technobranding • “It took more than 50 years for Coca-Cola to become a worldwide market leader, but only five years for on-line search engine Yahoo! to gain market dominance. The role of the brand has changed dramatically and has created a vacuum between off-line and on-line brands.” -- Mark Lindstrom, Executive Director ZIVO • “A company's web site IS the brand. It's the hub of consumer experience, the place where all aspects of a company, from its annual report to its products to its support, intersect. It's the company in a nutshell, all there in a way that just is not possible in the analog world.” -- Sean Carton, Carton Donofrio Interactive
