Branding Defined
• Name, term, design, symbol, or any other feature that identifies one seller’s good or service as distinct from those of other sellers.
• A brand can take many forms including a name, sign, symbol, color combination or slogan.

Evolution of a Brand
• A strong brand is constantly evolving, but not changing directions
• Examples of recent brand evolving: Groupon

Brand Evolving: Groupon
• Groupon is a great example because it starts as new service based on needs of customers and evolves by:
• Listening to customers and adding personalized services (food, spa, travel, entertainment) and location based coupons
• Corrected its missteps (Groupon Superbowl ad debacle)
• Groupon NOW
• Groupon is now a “verb” – whether you use different online coupons, people now refer to them as Groupons – like tissues are Kleenex

Understanding Your Target Audience
• Know the basics (gender, age range, income level, etc.)
• Then dig deeper:
• What does it mean if your brand draws more women than men?
• What does it feel like to walk in your target audience’s shoes? What are their desires, hopes, dreams?
