Vår studie är baserad på Hatch och Schultz definitioner av de tre vågorna av branding, med fokus på den andra vågen, corporate brands. I vårt analyserande avsnitt har vi analyserat det teoretiska ramverket vi använt oss av i relation till våra respondenters erfarenheter inom ämnet. Utifrån detta har vi kommit fram till att det finns stora likheter mellan arbetsstrategierna för ett corporate brand och ett personligt varumärke med bloggen som huvudsaklig kommunikationskanal.
