Logos ? certainly not ! It will just breed confusion and engage more resources of an organisation to maintain these individual identities. I feel the right positiong and message will do the job better.

The issue for brand loyalty is an intangible asset for brand owners… why? Because a person would be loyal to the brand only if he satisfied the quality and price of the product they bought. Because of it, an intangible asset of the brand owner...

Companies make major branding mistakes, some real doozies. One company wanted to tout itself as the most innovative, even though it spent zero dollars on research and development. Another acquired a well-respected competitor and then immediately changed its name, leaving millions of dollars worth of good will on the table. Those are obvious offenses. Many other companies make all-too-common--subtle yet avoidable--mistakes that sap the value right out of their brands. Here are five I would caution against. Mistake No. 1: Equating branding with communications. Yes, branding includes communications. But if your branding strategy is all about messaging and advertising and nothing about business...

A brand is a name that distinguishes a product from others. It has its own identity in the market with its symbol and tagline. When we talk about brands in rural markets some of the names which come to our mind are Rajdoot Bikes,Ghari Detergent,Dolly TV and chic shampoo etc Findings indicated that good quality, value for money and sense of identity with brand were likely to act as key determinants of a FMCG brand in rural India. Better finish and good looks, recommendations from retailers were found be key determinants of a consumer durable brand in rural India. Lets throw some light on agro inputs also like pesticides, fertilizers, manure, seeds, tractors, harvesters, pumps and threshers etc. In this regards marketers are following market specialization strategy.HYV seeds are also becoming popular among the farmers. It is a known fact in rural areas that price plays an important role in rural markets for purchasing the products. Now the New Era of marketing is changing the...

Private labels V/s national brands-The undercurrent battle! This is very interesting to note that what is making national brands vexing is not the competitors alone but the surge of private labels which seems to be eating out major chunk of the pie, traditionally a part of the appetite of the former. Private Label Manufacturer's Association categorizes PL manufacturers into 4 main categories: Large national brand manufacturers that utilize their expertise and excess plant capacity to supply store brands. Mall, quality manufacturers who specialize in particular product lines and concentrate on producing store brands almost exclusively. Often these companies are owned by corporations that also produce national brands. Major retailers and wholesalers that own their own manufacturing facilities and provide store brand products for themselves. Regional brand manufacturers that produce private label products for specific markets. In 2008, private labels had taken over 25% to 50% in...

"2 bananas cost 50 cents, banana dessert costs 10 dollars" Marketing is story-telling of any selling proposition beyond the obvious. A grand chef can change the total perception, price and taste of 2 bananas by infusing value in them through his skill. Two bananas cost 50 cents. But the same simple bananas can be transformed into a terrific dessert costing anywhere from $10 to $50 depending on the chef’s reputation. His repute gets built over time from his proven quality and taste he conjures up that his guests perceive and regard highly. Marketing is exposing the excellence of the banana dessert the chef creates by transforming two basic bananas. Of course, the dessert has to have truth and ingenuity that end-customers can recognize and take seriously. End-customers have to believe in that dessert and its quality excellence, it must work well for them, and it must look good. This is what marketing is. You can read the complete article here. What do you think?...
