This principle challenges the traditional marketing emphasis on cultivating deep loyalty among a small, targeted group of consumers. Instead, it suggests that the key to growth is expanding the brand's reach and customer base. Byron Sharp presents compelling evidence that loyalty levels across brands in a category tend to be surprisingly similar, especially when accounting for market share.

Physical availability, on the other hand, involves the extent to which products are easy to purchase across varying buying scenarios. Sharp argues that improving a brand's performance on these two dimensions can lead to substantial growth. This goes against the grain of focusing solely on distinctive branding or emotional engagement, suggesting a more pragmatic approach that calls for wide distribution and ensuring the brand can be thought of in a variety of purchasing environments. Through numerous case studies, Sharp demonstrates how increased availability can lead to a brand becoming a habitual choice for more consumers.Thirdly, Debunking the Myth of Customer Loyalty, One of the most provocative claims in 'How Brands Grow' is the dismissal of the traditional marketing focus on fostering deep customer loyalty. Sharp provides data indicating that the vast majority of a brand's buyers are light, infrequent purchasers rather than devoted users. Consequently, he argues that marketing strategies should
