As fandom sheds its stigmas of geekiness and hysteria, fans are demanding more from the celebrities and brands they love. Digital tools have given all organisations - from traditional businesses to tech startups - direct, real-time access to their most devoted consumers, and its easy to forget that this access flows both ways. This is the new fandom-based economy: a convergence of brand owner and brand consumer.

From Polaroid to Makers Mark to groupies of financier Warren Buffett, the consumer relationship has been transformed. Superfandom is an essential guide for those who care, contribute to and live in this rapidly expanding fan-driven economy.
