Rande Vick Introduces Radical Value, Challenging How Brands Measure Long-Term Value

LOS ANGELES - EntSun -- Brand strategist Rande Vick, founder of Vick Agency, announces the release of Radical Value: Building Brands to be Uncannily Memorable, a new book that challenges how organizations define brand success in an era dominated by data, automation, and AI.

As brands gain unprecedented access to performance metrics, many are confronting an unexpected problem: despite optimizing for engagement, conversions, and loyalty scores, fewer brands are genuinely remembered. Radical Value argues that traditional metrics, while useful, overlook the deeper drivers of preference – memory, trust, belief, and meaning.

"Most companies don't fail because they lack data," says Vick. "They struggle because they've optimized the system without understanding the human mind it's meant to serve."

Drawing on research from neuroscience, behavioral economics, and cognitive psychology, the book reframes brand strategy around how experiences are encoded in long-term memory. It builds on Vick's NeuroBrand Method™, a practical framework developed to help leadership teams align identity, experience, and communication around a single, coherent meaning.

The book features a foreword by Paul J. Zak, whose research on trust, oxytocin, and immersion has shaped how organizations understand human motivation and emotional engagement.

As artificial intelligence continues to flatten execution and content creation, Radical Value positions differentiation as an upstream challenge – less about tactics, and more about identity, coherence, and the capacity to create lasting associations in the minds of audiences. Brands that endure, Vick argues, will be those that understand how people remember, not just what they click.

Radical Value expands on Vick's earlier work in neurobranding and is written for founders, executives, and brand stewards navigating irreversible decisions about positioning, customer experience, and long-term value creation.
