Branding is an important strategy for the metropolis, and for a small town. Branding strategies of cities are actively introduced in Europe, but only few Russian cities use similar strategies. Perm, the capital of the Perm region, has already applied its resources trying to create a city brand. Other cities of the region also try to introduce the branding strategies, because the brand promotes to the attraction of the resources into the territory. The program of the development of the local area of the Perm region - city Cherdyn and village Nyrob, will increase the attractiveness of this area, and will keep it from economic stagnation. Competition for investment and personnel, for the reduction of the migration outflow are the current problems of the Cherdyn district of the Perm region, which has faced significant economic challenges. Departure of the youth to the large cities and the fall in entrepreneurial activity threaten economic degradation of the territory. Budgetary mechanisms are limited and investments are minimum. Activation of interests of business and population is possible through formation of a new image of the territory, including creation of a local brand.

The benefits of the brand for each audience and options of PUSH-promotion strategy are stated. It is proposed to estimate the results using the presented metrics of the brand.
