VIDEO NOTES AND TRANSCRIPTION
Branding The Business - Name Creation
A brand is an identifying symbol, mark, logo, name, word, or sentence that makes companies different from other businesses. A brand represents the face of the company, the recognizable logo, slogan, or mark that the public associates with the company. Legal protection given to a brand name is called a trademark. Can you name any popular brands? (ex. Nike, Minecraft, LG, Lexus, Razor, etc.).
Creating a Brand
When a company decides to settle on a brand to be its public image, it must first determine its brand identity or how it wants to be viewed. The goal is to make the brand memorable. www.canva.com has GREAT branding and logo ideas!
Brainstorm Names
Before you can create a brand, you’ll need to create a clever business name. You have some options for naming your business, and you can use your name or something fun. Most of my business operates under my name, John. J. Peterson. You can find me on iTunes, Facebook, and Youtube. One brand example is my electric scooter business, and I use the name “SlickScoots” (www.slickscoots.com).
The name of your business should be relative to your interest. If you don’t have an interest or passion yet, you can use your name or a variation of your name.
