Branding - How to Succeed 2

Brand Management

Types of Brand: Part 1

There are, in fact, many different types of brands each with its own recognisable features. The following characterises the essential features:

A Premium Brand - Compared with other products in the same category, the price is pitched at a premium. The age group that is identified more than any other with premium brands is that of the 30-65 grouping. Furthermore, this age sector continues to increase in its receptiveness.

An Economy Brand – This is a brand that is targeted, which means that it is focusing on a specific market rather than following the marketing strategy of mass marketing, to a high price elasticity market segment. The price elasticity of demand is a measure of how the quantity demanded is affected by changes in price. It is measured as elasticity. Water is an example of a product that has inelastic demand in that people will pay anything for it. Conversely, sugar is very elastic since, as the price of sugar increases, people will turn to other products, such as saccharin, which are treated as sugar substitutes.

A Fighting Brand - It is a brand that is created specifically to act as a challenge against the threat from a competitive product. A typical example is a low-priced manufacturer’s brand sold with the minimum amount of advertising. This brand is designed to compete with the dealers' brands.

Corporate Branding - This refers to a company that uses its own name as the designated name to be used on a product brand. This means that the product and the company name become the brand name. An excellent example is the drink Coca Cola.

Family Branding – It involves selling a number of products, which are related to each other in some way, under one brand name. It differs from individual branding whereby each product is given an individual brand name. Product quality is an important facet. Should one product within the range prove unsatisfactory, it could reduce sales of all the others. This feature figures prominently in Family Branding.

Individual Branding – When all a company's products are given their own individual brand names. Each product has its own image and identity, and it is this that constitutes the added value. A case in point is that of Coca-Cola and Bacardi Mixers. They both have their own brand name, and so can be identified individually, but are owned and marketed by the Coca-Cola Co.

Brand Leveraging – A company can use the brand equity inherent in an existing brand name in order to introduce a new product or product line. Hence, consider the case of an existing range of products. Should another product be added and it was found that this was of better quality than the other products in the range. This would be characterised as trading up or brand leveraging.

Co-Branding – This involves at least two brands working in association with each other in order to market their products. Ingredient co-branding is a particular form of co-branding. Examples include:

Betty Crocker’s brownie mix contains Hershey’s chocolate syrup

Dell Computers are built with Intel Processors

Pillsbury Brownies are made with Nestle Chocolate

Over the past 35 years I have collected antique and vintage signed and unsigned costume and fine jewelry and through this experience I have found many ways to find and acquire the most amazing and collectible pieces, having values far higher than what I paid.

My tried and true secrets have worked and as a result I own an extraordinary collection of mostly signed and book pieces dating from the late 1800's up tio the present. I have acquired signed and unsigned Miriam Haskell (some of which were developed for Coco Chanel and have even been featured in Chanel print ads from the late 1930's and 40's),Schiaparelli, Pennino, McClelland-Barclay, Alfred Philippe for Trifari, DeMario, and more of the most sought after names in the antique and vintage jewelry genre.

There are three secrets I employ to acquire such desirable pieces.

The first secret is aligning myself with the companies that sell out estates from the home of the deceased. I create relationships with the owners of these companies and ask if I can inspect all jewelry (whether costume or fine)prior to the estate sale dates. In exchange I help publicize their upcoming sale by notifying antique dealers, shop owners and specialty store retailers who may be in the market for great furniture, rugs and accessories. To the estate disposal companies this help is invaluable as it raises their chances of getting better than fair market value as they are going to be selling to resellers. There is a second part to this secret and that is that it also works with auctioneers who do general auctions of household and personal items. Once you have developed these relationships, they will call prior to an auction and sell to you before the auction preview at a low box lot price.

The second secret is to align yourself with pawn shop owners. They do not sell costume jewelry which to them has really no intrinsic value but will offer a bulk price for costume jewelry brought in by folks and for a small profit sell it to me. I have acquired the most amazing pieces this way. A person has unfortunately hit a rough spot and needs cash and will usually clean out all of their drawers which may include a lot of fine but most likely more costume jewelry. The pawnbroker knows they have an instant sale to me of any and all costume jewelry and most likely sell it to me as a box lot. The person needing the money wins, the pawnbroker wins and I really win, because many of the items have been in the family for years and may date to the late 30's or older. Some may be trash but there is always at least one or two pieces that made the transaction a success.

The third secret and one that takes tact and sensitivity is when a widower or children of a recently deceased family member is trying to move on and feels the need to donate or "clean out" their belongings and personal affects. The family hears of me through an ad I run in the local newspaper or "Pennysaver magazine" stating that I pay cash for any costume jewelry. The family will call and I always give them a more than fair price for the items they have and they are pleased and I have found more wonderful treasures to add to my collection.

All in all, after a few years of using the above secrets people will just come to know you as the "jewelry lady" and the calls will consistently come and the jewelry selections will continue to get better and better.

Good Luck in your treasure hunt and jewelry quest!!!

About the Author:

My name is Candace Daugherty and I live near Charleston, South Carolina. I am an entrepreneur and have worked as a retail design and marketing consultant with many internationally known retailers and fashion designers over the past 30 years.

My passion is finding and collecting Antique and Vintage Costume and Fine Jewelry. I love Victorian, Art Nouveau and Edwardian pieces and have been fortunate to find many wonderful and highly collectible pieces right here in my own backyard of Charleston, SC. at a fraction of their market value.

Since September 15, 2008 I along with three others have founded the first of its kind, an exclusive auction boutique for antique, vintage and new costume and fine jewelry. We started Vintage Gems Emporium at www.vintagegemsemporium.com with three concepts in mind. One, a special boutique environment in an Auction Venue just for the collector and specialist of antique and vintage costume and fine jewelry.

Planet of the apes on wheels! One of the strangest and most entertaining bicycle safety videos ever made, One Got Fat is a bizarre concoction of 1960's goofball children's antics. The film poses many startling questions: for instance, why is it necessary for all the kids in this movie to wear monkey masks and tails while they go out on reckless bike rides? Bordering on surrealism, the masked youths meet various terrible fates as they get hit by trucks and fall down holes - though there's no violence at all and the mood is humorous and cartoon-like throughout...

Tin signs bring back a bit of nostalgia or set the tone for a special place in your home or business. How about that ever famous Route 66! You could decorate a while room with tin signs for all the states US 66 goes through!

Remember the original Texaco Fire Chief logo? Ah yes.. those were the days when someone anxiously awaited for you to drive in. They'd fill you car up, wipe the winshields clean and check your oil while the pump worked.

The Pegasas logo for Mobil Gas is another one. Into farming? Well.. tin signs for inside that tractor would be cool. Or just to mark you home as a place where John Deere equipment is important. There are new John Deere Tractor tin signs, or there are older ones too. There's a tin sign for an old Ford Truck as well.

For a bit of tv or movie nostalgia, how about a Betty Boop Kiss on a tin sign. Or, the Men of Mayberry from the Andy Griffith show. These and more are available.

You can entice people at your party to indulge by displaying Coke or Chocolate or Budweiser tin signs. Remember that trip to the local drugstore or ice cream soda counter? You could have a huge milkshake for a quarter. Or a coke float. Old tin signs that might show the slogans from that era are great for a kitchen, basement or to set a mood for a party. Want something a bit more adult? How about a Jack Daniel's sin sign.

Old cars your thing? Get a tin sign of a GTO, or a classic Chevrolet Corvette.

So don't miss out. Load up on Tin Signs and make a statement for your special rooms. You might want to place them on the wall. Maybe strategically placed inside a shelf of books on related topics. However you decide to use them they will bring a smile to your face everytime you remember the good ole days.
