What
is branding?
•it is important to
know what brands are. A brand is the idea or image of a specific product or
service that consumers connect with, by identifying the name, logo, slogan, or
design of the company who owns the idea or image. Branding is when that idea or
image is marketed so that it is recognizable by more and more people, and
identified with a certain service or product when there are many other
companies offering the same service or product. Advertising professionals work
on branding not only to build brand recognition, but also to build good
reputations and a set of standards to which the company should strive to
maintain or surpass. Branding is an important part of Internet commerce, as
branding allows companies to build their reputations as well as expand beyond
the original product and service, and add to the revenue generated by the
original brand.
•When working on
branding, or building a brand, companies that are using web pages and search
engine optimization have a few details to work out before being able to build a
successful brand. Coordinating domain names and brand names are an important
part of finding and keeping visitors and clients, as well as branding a new
company. Coordination of a domain name and brand names lends identification to
the idea or image of a specific product or service, which in turn lets visitors
easily discovery the new brand.
•is a way to build an important company asset, which is a
good reputation. Whether a company has no reputation, or a less than stellar
reputation, branding can help change that. Branding can build an expectation
about the company services or products, and can encourage the company to
maintain that expectation, or exceed them, bringing better products and
services to the market place.
