Abstract. The transformation of a product to a brand comes at a time when the objective perception of the values of the product or a trade mark is being replaced by personal attitude. Personal value in branding is one of the parameters of the philosophy of the brand, which draws the attention of experts in the process of the brand development. It is the foundation of the concept of ‘brand’, leading a brand to getting into the field of human perception. Personal value ensures the strong ties between the branding object and the inner world of man, and the system of his values.
Today, the use of traditional methods is not enough to promote the brand. New technologies in the field of traditional PR include social media release, and a newsroom (online press center).
