There&rsquo;s no doubt that &ldquo;The Amazon Effect&rdquo; is impacting the way that brands conduct their business. That&rsquo;s why it&rsquo;s no surprise that the retail and e-commerce giant was just named the world&rsquo;s most valuable brand for 2018.

<a href="http://www.foxbusiness.com/markets/2018/02/01/amazon-now-worlds-most-valuable-brand-study.html?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=new-study-shows-amazon-is-now-the-most-valuable-brand-in-the-world-2705427" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">A recent article in Fox Business highlights Brand Finance&rsquo;s new Global 500 report</a>, which shows that Amazon&rsquo;s brand value has jumped 42 percent over the past year to $150.8 billion. The brand&rsquo;s first place ranking is also an improvement over last year&mdash;in 2017, Amazon was ranked third behind Google and Apple.

Amazon&rsquo;s surge to the top of Brand Finance&rsquo;s Global 500 list can help point franchise brands in the right direction. The retail giant is clearly connecting with consumers in a way that franchisors can learn from&mdash;whether it&rsquo;s the importance of convenient and quick delivery services, having a strong online presence and app or making sure that there&rsquo;s a greater value placed on customer service, brands can take Amazon&rsquo;s lead in order to boost their bottom lines.
