What is Branding?
The Internet created a level playing field for all competitors and competitors need to differentiate themselves to win the customer.
"Branding" is the often subliminal process by which a business uses marketing strategies to get people to easily remember their products or services over a competitors' ... essentially, it's applied psychology.
Is branding an advertising method just used by the large corporations, like McDonalds, General Motors, Pepsi or Coke? Absolutely not! Branding techniques can easily be accomplished through a business or store name, logo or slogan.
On eBay, another easy method of branding is with your listings. If you use consistent set up, formatting, titles, or phrases in your listings, then customers will be able to identify a listing as your Store very quickly when they see it again.
Bottom line.... you are in competition with thousands of other websites, stand up and be noticed!
Our Branding Strategy
An example of our primary branding strategy is our store name and logo that we operate our website and other online shops under.Face it, our business name Katick Supplies is easily forgotten and often misspelled. I put a lot of time into deciding on a new name and logo.
Since I am not a very creative person, I actually held a contest (with a prize LOL) with my online pals to come up with a really unique and easy to remember name. From the name I chose, A Well Dressed Bullet, which I immediately loved, designing our eye catching logo was easy! I combined our catchy new store name with a bullet in a tuxedo!
