Three : Building off the strategy to maintain and develop a good brand name: Coca cola
1. Conception and important of a brand name .
A brand name is a name used to distinguish one product from its competitors.It can apply to
a single product,an entire product range,or even a company.A brand name is usually associated
with a logo or other graphical representation of the brand in order to strengthen the brand
image.The main purpose of branding is to differentiate the products and services of one product
or business from those of competitors.Brand names can be made up of just about any word or
series of letters.Companies may name the brand after a founder.An ideal brand name is
unique,memorable,easy to understand,and creates an emotional connection with a target.
A brand name is really important for development of company. Having a recognizable brand
name is very valuable for a company.The best brand names become a part of consumers’

vocabularies and synonymous with the items they represent,like people say Coca Cola instead of
soft-drinkdience.Building and managing a brand can play a large part in developing company
and if you want to strengthen and manage the perceptions of your business,then a strong brand is
needed.Good branding elevates and differentiates your products or services and gives your
customers reason to choose you over your competitors.
2. Choose a great brand name.
If you need to choose a great brand name for your product, service or business, start by
considering the importance of the name in your branding efforts.
Your name is an extension of your brand, and it can reinforce the value you provide or
distance you from it. When you’re developing a name for a business, a product or a service, you
have a number of options.
When the time comes in your business life cycle to name a brand, it’s not a task to take lightly. A
brand name represents a promise to consumers and differentiates the value your brand offers
from competitors’ brands. More importantly, you need to take yourself out of the brand naming
equation entirely because it doesn’t matter if your brand name makes sense to you. It really only
matters if your brand name is meaningful to consumers.

Following are the 10 steps you should take to name a brand that resonates with consumers,
differentiates your brand from others on the market, and is flexible enough to survive for many
years to come.
1. Develop Your Brand Strategy
You should not name a brand until you develop your brand strategy. How can you know if you’re
choosing the right brand name if you don’t know what that brand’s unique value proposition,
brand promise, and strategic direction are?
2. Research the Market, Competitors, and Consumers
You need to fully understand your market before you can create an effective brand name. Do
your research and learn what brand names your competitors are using and how consumers feel
about those brand names. Identify gaps and opportunities and develop a brand name that fills
those gaps and leverages those opportunities. Keep an eye on the AYTM blog for my upcoming
post that will focus on research for naming products and brands.

3. Identify the Message Your Brand Should Communicate
Once you understand what already exists in your market from your competitors and what
consumers want from brands in that market, you can refine your brand position. Use that position
along with your brand promise to develop the best brand name possible. Furthermore, identify
your brand’s unique personality and create a brand name to match.
4. Brainstorm without Judging
Gather your team together and start brainstorming! There are no bad ideas this early in the
process, so go for quantity. Even the most off-the-wall idea should be accepted and not judged.
You never know what crazy thought could spawn the perfect idea! Look at your brand from all
angles; focus on each benefit; consider all audiences; and make that list as long as you can. Be
sure to include consumers and unbiased third parties in your brainstorming process if possible.
5. Create a Short List
Use that long brainstorming list to develop possible brand names, and narrow that list of possible
brand names down to 10-20 of the best. Make sure the short list of brand names you create
includes names that can last through market changes, brand extensions, geographic expansions,
trends, fads, and so on. You should create a brand name that can stand the test of time, because
you never know where the world, the market, consumers, competitors, and you could go in years
to come.
6. Trademark and Domain Name Availability Search
Research the availability of each of the brand names on your short list for trademarking. You
don’t want to launch a brand and receive a cease and desist letter a few months (or years) later
telling you that someone else already owns that trademark so you have to stop using it. Also,
check for domain name availability. While it’s very possible that the exact domain name for your
brand name won’t be available, you need to know early if there are no acceptable alternatives
available.
7. Create a Shorter Short List
[Type text] Page 3
Based on your trademark and domain name research, shorten your brand name short list even
further. Try to narrow it down to 5-10 of the best options.
8. Develop Brand Marketing Mock-ups

Create logo, ad, business card, and package mockups using the brand names on your shortened
short list. Make sure each brand name looks good visually and sounds good when spoken out
loud. A brand name might sound great on a short list, but when you put it in a radio ad or on a
package design, it might not work at all.
9. Test Your Brand Marketing Mock-ups
When you’ve got your short list brand marketing mock-ups ready, test them through consumer
research. Find out which choices resonate well with your target audience and which do not.
Through this testing, you should be able to determine which brand names are best, which need
tweaking, and which need to be tossed immediately. It’s also possible that the testing phase will
teach you that you need to go back to the drawing board and come up with a completely different
brand name.
10. Roll out and Monitor Your Brand
Once you settle on a brand name, launch it and use it consistently across all customer touch
points. Be sure to conduct ongoing research and monitoring to ensure your brand name is well-
received.
