The Timeless Brand Identity

Brand Protection - Controlling All Aspects of Your Brand

Brand protection is the key to ensuring that your business remains profitable and successful. When it comes to brand protection a holistic approach is absolutely vital.

Brand Protection - Controlling All Aspects of Your Brand


Nothing reflects a company’s vision, personality and strategy more than its brand image. And nothing expresses an organisation’s brand image more quickly than its logo. Your logo, or brand identity, is the visual centrepiece of your organisation.As the primary visual connection with consumers your logo has a powerful influence on brand perception, and whether consumers decide to engage.The dynamics of new economies intensify the role of branding and demand clear and cut through communication. Changing markets, increasing competition and educated consumers make it more challenging to build brand recognition.

How can my logo stand out?

Emotional connectivity and simplicity, in fact, increase your brand’s chances for longevity, a crucial factor in building a successful brand.Let’s briefly consider some of the most successful companies of our time, all of which feature a simple logo at the centre of their brand: IBM, JetStar, Greenpeace and BMW, coupled with all time branding favourites McDonald’s and Coca-Cola. There is no way a logo can become a successful brand ambassador if the company it represents remains too attached to an outdated image. The same applies to your brand identity.

Creating A Brand for Your Clothing Line

Marketing campaigns should always start with a communication concept: a conceptual premise and framework that attracts attention and engages an audience in a way that penetrates each viewer's mind, and captures the audience's collective consciousness. It is the foundation of your brand story.

Developing an appropriate communication concept is the first step in creating your own distinctive marketing strategy: a strategy that employs the signature audio-visual-performance vocabulary needed to create an identifiable brand-associated campaign presentation. It is this presentation idiom that provides the communication tools needed to make your brand unique and memorable.

No, they are about the story, the brand story, told in a compelling fashion so that it resonates and impacts the audience in some meaningful manner.

The Language of Branded Presentation

The same can be said for visuals and performance, the communication elements that collectively with sound creates the language of brand presentation.

Core Concept Development

Brand Story Sustainability

Put another way, you have access to website traffic, an audience that is searching for something, it is the job of your brand story to reach deep into that audience's psychological makeup, and give them a jolt of desire for what you offer. Your brand story scenario and characters vicariously represent this audience, and as your onscreen brand representatives move through the plotted arc from skepticism and mistrust to acceptance and desire, so too will your audience.

A Web Audience Must...

If you haven't already figured it out, the best way to implement such a brand strategy is with an ongoing Web-video campaign, but if you still have doubts consider that a Web audience must relate to your brand in a way that conjures life experience, values, attitudes, and preconceptions. That audience must be affected and subconsciously influenced by the performance, as well as visual elements, sound design, and mnemonics.

TO WHAT EXTENT BRAND EXTENSIONS Could possibly Boost BRAND LOYALTY? APPLICATION TO LUXURY WOMEN'S WEAR AND ACCESSORIES Market: THE TOD'S CASE

Advertising on Cars - Get Paid to Drive Or Get a Brand New Car!

I. Brand Extensions

Brand extensions increase the consumer perceived value of the brand. For successful brand extensions, consumers have to be able to perceive high fit between the extended product and the core brand. Other variables are involved in leveraging brand image in brand extensions as communication policy (Pina and Montaner 2009), brand type and cultural differences (Buil, De Chernatony and Hem 2009). In addition, Kapferer's model based on brand types demonstrates the importance for the brand to have a high brand meaning more adaptable and reliable into other categories.

Most brand extensions occur as line extensions, which use the existing brand names and products and extend them remaining in the existing product category.

A very interesting one which moves in brand extensions field is "Extending the brand: controllable drivers of feedback effects" by Montaner and Pina (2009). This paper seeks to analyse the influence of three variables: communication policy, brand breadth and extension-brand fit. The results show that brand extensions far from the current markets damage the brand associations, although the use of advertising focused on the new product can reduce this negative effect. The results suggest how to manage the launching of brand extensions in order to protect the extended brand image. moreover, Buil, de Chernatony and Hem with "Brand extension strategies: perceived fit, brand type, and culture influences" (2009) examined the impact of perceived fit, brand type and country's culture on the consumers' attitude towards brand extensions and on the parent brand equity. Brand extensions with high fit receive more favourable consumer evaluations and decrease the negative feedback effects of extensions on parent brand equity. Results also reveal that parent brand equity dilution is higher when the brand used to launch the extension has high equity. Brand Loyalty

High brand loyalty could be identified in the case of high purchase frequency, high penetration rate, when the price is higher than average in the category, when it refers to a leader brand. Very interesting for my research is Kapferer's Brand Loyalty model, which introduces as dimension of brand loyalty the trial of brand extensions next to brand presence and single product repeated purchase.

"Customer satisfaction and loyalty: start with the product, culminate with the brand" written by Torres-Moraga, Vasquez-Parraga and Zamora-Gonzalez (2008) enhances that studies on customer satisfaction and loyalty have focused on brand rather than product. It is not that brand is not important, but the process of loving a brand starts with a product. The relationship satisfaction-loyalty is also present when evaluating product and brand combined, indicating that there is an intermediate position between product and brand. There are practical consequences of applying the typology and examining the findings, the relationship satisfaction-loyalty starts with the product, includes the product-brand, and culminates with the brand. This study introduces a typology underscoring the pursuit of satisfaction and development of loyalty in three conditions of product presence versus brand presence, that is, product alone, brand alone, and product and brand combined.

To what extent Brand Extensions might increase Brand Loyalty?

The TOD'S case

The trend is changing and it is no more the brand who validates the Consumer but the Consumer who validates the brand.

As a matter of fact, many leading luxury goods companies have been applying extension strategies such as new product lines, product categories, and brand names.

;Researches on non-luxury brands have shown that a major contribution of extensions is the enhancement of brand awareness. It means that brand extensions could damage the brand image of luxury brands, as these brands may be seen as widely available and accessible to the majority of people. For the actual Customers Brand Extensions for Luxury Brands improves Brand Awareness, however the Brand Loyalty could be damaged, since the brand lose his prestigious.





















(1) the perceived fit between the parent brand and the extension; and

(2) the characteristics of the parent brand used for the extension.

Similarly, an extension with good fit may reinforce parent brand equity dimensions such as brand image (Zimmer and Bhat, 2004). When the firm launches a new product consistent with the parent brand, consumers perceive higher fit between the products associated to the brand and the extension. Likewise, high fit extensions may result in consumers buying more products of the brand (Swaminathan et al., 2001), facilitate parent brand categorisation (Morrin, 1999), and strengthen the awareness of the original brand through the brand extensions increasing the brand's visibility (Aaker, 1991).

Proposition: Brand extensions for Luxury Brands improves the Brand Loyalty if the perceived fit of the extended category is high.

Since Tod's is universally known at first for his core product, shoes, the author wanted to know if the respondents were usual to buy the pre-existing brand extensions of the Brand of our interest, such as bags and other accessories. Here multiple answers were possible, all of them related to the core value of Tod's and in general of Luxury Brand as: Easy chic style and design, Quality, Elegant and Classic mood, Comfort, Luxury Brand, "it is fashion".

Thanks to this observation, it was found out that ;luxury Customers are always waiting for new brand extensions from the Brand they like more and they are wondering about the reasons why these products are still not existing in "their" Brand's range of products. The respondents are usual to share their Brand purchase, within the range of offered products, dedicating a 61,5% to the core Tod's product that are shoes, but this product comes out from 96 answers out of 100 respondents, a very relevant value since this means that the oldest Tod's product is highly deep-rooted amongst Tod's client. The "fashion" status seems not to be relevant for the majority when purchasing Tod's products, but they take in consideration the fact to buy; a Luxury Brand. Anyway the respondents considered them fashion and attribute them a Luxe status mainly thanks to the Brand Tod's core values.

As already enhanced, rarely researches were conducted on brand extensions for Luxury Brand, this means that the field has already to be discovered with its several aspects.

Much research can be done in the areas of both brand extensions and brand loyalty for luxury brands, as research in this area has only scratched the surface so far. So that it would be possible to identify further factors that facilitate successful brand extensions and that improve brand loyalty.

Moving in this context, the research have shown the relevance of two variables in order to reinforce the link between brand extensions and brand loyalty: a high fit which always refers to the degree of proximity between parent brand and the extension that consumers perceive; and the importance for the Brand to have a strengthened and broad core that let the Brand evolve gradually in extended brand.

Tight Marketing Budgets Make Promotional Items A Best Brand Builder

Quickly find corporate branding companies to help with corporate branding, business naming, and company image. Hire one of these company naming services to help establish a new company image or company identity.

Get the word out about your product and brand it. This increases the perceived value because people believe brand name products are better quality. If you want to quickly brand your product, team up with an already branded business and use their name.

An even better strategy is to choose a distinctive brand name that is unrelated to your product or service. With a good brand image, your product or service becomes associated with quality and value. You control the message through marketing, advertising, customer service and all interaction between your company and the market.

Value-added products need a distinct identity -- they need a brand. Packaging tells consumers how to use your product and communicates its features and benefits.

Creating a new name for a new product in a category completely new to the company. If you fail to deliver the brand, (your product or company) could suffer irreparable damage.

Brand Your Products As Your Own

How to Successfully Start a Clothing Line or Brand on a Budget

All things said and done, a brand name simply means that your name is associated with a good reputation -- in this case for a certain type of photography. For example, some brand names such as Nike are associated with high-quality sports goods, whereas other brand names such as Oakleys are associated with high-quality sunglasses.

On the whole, as a freelance photographer develops a name they tend to specialize.

All things said and done, it is of great importance that you start to build up a brand name as a great freelance photographer as soon as you can. If you are starting if for the sole purpose of making money I suggest another career choice. Not everyone does but some do and people are willing to trade right now if it will benefit them. Get your business online. If you have no friends than start preying on and recruiting people at your local coffee shop or watering hole. Surround yourself with ambitious positive people and watch your company flourish.
