Branding

How do customers recognize businesses?

The main ways a customer recognizes a business are by its business name and logo.

Other ways include the business colors, theme song, a mascot, a spokesperson, or packaging.

Creating a business name and logo is called BRANDING.


What is a business name?

The name of a business. 

When you create your business name, make sure it is relevant to your target market and value. 

If your car dealership provides the value of luxury, don’t call your business Cheap Cars Dealership. Name your business Platinum Automotive. 

If the target market for your clothing company is kids, don’t use complex words like Amorphous Apparel.


What is a business logo?

An image that represents your business. 

Similar to your business name, your logo should be relevant to your target market and value. 

Use imagery that connects to your business. A Brazilian company that sells oranges called Olá can have an orange replace the “O” for their business logo.
