<![CDATA[City branding has gained increasing importance in recent years due to its perceived economic and political implications, necessitating the involvement of city governments and stakeholders in developing a successful cross-sectoral branding strategy. In this study, the researcher conducted a literature review and identified three critical dimensions - politics and compliance, socioeconomics, and sustainability - that must be considered when creating an implementation checklist for city regulators and executives. To address the research gap, the researcher developed a conceptual and practical framework that introduces three new terms - city branding image objects, artifacts, and infrastructure - essential in implementing city branding strategies in Indonesia. This study provides a comprehensive implementation framework checklist for city governments to ensure their branding strategy meets the three-dimensional criteria and has an appropriate implementation plan. Furthermore, the researcher expects that this article will initiate and stimulate a discussion on city branding strategies, anticipate that this study will offer an alternative perspective on city branding strategy and provide a valuable implementation tool for regulators, executives, and academics involved in city branding in Indonesia.]]>
