KEYNOTE SPEECH- :60-:90 PREVENTING BRANDSLAUGHTER DAVID MARK CORBIN
Businesses are pretty savvy today in identifying their brand and perpetuating that brand in most aspects of their advertising, marketing and sales. And therefore most of these organizations are realizing the measurable financial value of their brand asset. However, most are not aware that through their actions and those of their employees and representatives that they are either living in integrity with their brand or killing it .either Brand integrity or Brandslaughter. Enter the Preventing Brandslaughter lesson, model and process.
In this spirited Keynote Speech, your audience will be guided through the model in a fun and enlightening process: introduction, demonstration through case studies (fun, poignant, eye opening), personal application exercises, summation, plan of application and close.
The major points shared are as above. By any definition of the word brand- it has significant value as an asset of the company, association and individual. And the value of that brand is often in the hands of individuals who havent a clue as to how to live the brand, be the brand and boost the brand during their workday. Hence, we have individuals who inadvertently are committing Brandslaughter in the first, second or third degree on a daily basis and are thus eroding the brand asset value every day that they show up to work.
The solution: awareness, engagement, buy-in relative to their personal mission and that of the organization, a process to engage in an Audit of Brand Integrity and plan to integrate their findings.
Your Preventing Brandslaughter keynote speech of :60-:90 will provide that solution and boost brand value immediately. Preventing Brandslaughter books are available.
David Mark Corbin speaks to audiences worldwide on such topics as Illuminate: Harnessing The Positive Power of Negative Thinking (Wiley & Sons, Publishing), Psyched On Service (Sigma Press), From ChangeVictim to ChangeMaster, The Mentoring Mentality and the topic above.
David & His Brandslaughter Philosophy Were Recently Featured in FORBES.

5 Star Amazon Reviews…
A truly revolutionary business book.
While I recently read through the Kindle version of ” Brand Slaughter “, I’m also ordering the print version as I know I’ll re-read and share author David Corbin’s iconic book often. The impressive roster of testimonials set high expectations for me and it didn’t disappoint. Although a business book, Corbin writes with a conversation style that flows and helps separate it from the drudgery of most biz books deliver.
Instead of filling the book with dozens of real life business stories and several dozen applicable quotes like the run-of-the-mill business books that dominate the shelves, the author tells the story of Reliance Hospital and how a host of personnel affect the brand. I often thought of ” brand ” as a form of recognition like Coke or Sony but as you’ll read, ” Brand ” is far more reaching and pervasive than we imagine.
The book title is not only self descriptive, but somewhat foreshadowing as the tale of Reliance Hospital weaves a fascinating tale of challenges and ultimately triumphs by showing the benefits and importance of Brand. Thank you David Corbin. My entire staff will be reading it asap. Sharon T
A cut above most business books!
“Brand Slaughter reminds me of my all time favorite business book, ” The Richest Man in Babylon ‘ . If you’re not familiar with the latter, the main point is no matter what, save 10% of everything for yourself and build a nest egg that over time will become significant. That’s it, that’s all and it has sold millions of copies. David Corbin has effectively, in a Spencer Johnson style, covered the importance of the cumulative good or bad that comes from employees and the results on a company brand.
I was surprised that this had not been done before at this level. I hope this fine book becomes a staple at all the good biz schools as well as a go to offering at companies like Nightingale Conant. WBD III
Everyone should read this book!
“I cannot recommend this book highly enough. For anyone concerned with protecting any businesses most important asset, it’s public image, I would suggest reading Brand Slaughter, by David Corbin. By telling the story of Reliance Hospital, we can see the principles of the book put into practice. Mr. Corbin takes his reader through each point clearly and concisely while maintaining interest through the challenges and successes of Reliance and it’s employees. Showing that each step of the process is integral to the success of the mission statement. There is no business I have ever worked with that could not benefit from the wisdom contained in these pages. An exemplary achievement by Mr. Corbin.” Brandon
I couldn’t think of a better cover. Indeed
“I was familiar with author David Corbin’s book ” Illuminate ” so thought it worth reading ” Brand Slaughter “. The cover seemed strange to me, but as I read and understood the lesson he conveyed, I couldn’t think of a better cover. Indeed, how would one graphically depict the merits of a team that reflect the company ethos?
The sub-title ” How to Preserve, Support and Grow Your Brand Assett Value ” is actually what the book is all about. It’s about avoiding the many negatives suffered by a company by ensuring all team members are contributing. Love or hate the NE Patriots, there motto is ” Do Your Job “. It wouldn’t surprise me if coach Belichik was a fan of this book because he certainly implements it’s principals.
I purchased the e book version but plan to get a reference copy to read often, along with books by Drucker, Maxwell and others whose teachings are invaluable. Harry S. Truman said ” Not all readers are leaders, but all leaders are readers. ” Mr Corbin’s book will no doubt find a place on many leaders book shelves.” Steven Palange
The best of the best… Corbin is a BRANDING GENIUS!
“David Corbin’s book not only speaks to business owners and C-level executives, but to all employees, as each one of them represents the brand and company they work for. In this book, the style of writing, unlike other self-help business books, is very intriguing, entertaining and enables this to be read in one sitting. Branding can be a touchy and confusing subject, as there are many different perspectives, but Corbin simplifies the standards and ideas that enable businesses and leaders to create their own brand. The principles in this book not only apply to the business world, but are also applicable to certain instances in one’s personal life too. Great read and would definitely recommend.”
An instant classic. Perhaps best business book this year.
“The book Brand Slaughter, by David Corbin reminds me of a favorite movie. In the movie ” The Butterfly Effect ” there is a premise that ll things are interconnected and if a butterfly flaps it’s wings, it could possibly turn into a hurricane a world away.
Author Corbin has the premise that every action, by every employee in a company is a reflection on how good, or bad a brand can be ( Brand Slaughter ).
The book is an entertaining and quick read and one of the rare business books that is so spot on with it’s ideology and premise that it can and should be read often. A must for all upper and middle management or even small business owners and entrepreneurs.” KAO
David Corbin does an excellent job, through his story of Reliant Hospital
“Wow. David Corbin does an excellent job, through his story of Reliant Hospital, how each and every person within an organization has the responsibility of strengthening the brand or also contributing to its destruction. Thank you, David, for sharing your brilliance and insightfulness how each and every one of us truly can make a difference and have a positive (or negative) impact on the organization’s brand and its future.” Wendy
Brand is more than colors and logos
“I’m a fan of David Corbin’s book Illuminate as well. But this book, in particular examines the way every employee, every decision and every customer outcome is either true to the integrity of the brand or is contributing to “brand slaughter”. if you think those small choices don’t matter; nobody will know, think again. I will refer to this book again and again.” Coop
