It is through names that we bring all things into this world. Looking back over my 35+ years in building businesses, one of the most fulfilling aspects of my career has been the art and science of naming businesses and especially retail products. It's a journey that combines creativity, strategy, and a deep understanding of consumer psychology and can also be lots of fun. Choosing a name is more than just a label. It’s about crafting an identity that resonates with consumers and stakeholders. A great name can evoke emotions, reflect brand values, and ultimately pave the way for a company or product's success. I've had the pleasure of collaborating with incredible teams, brainstorming ideas, and witnessing how a well thought out name can transform a concept into a beloved brand. In my experience, the key to effective naming lies in authenticity and connection. By truly understanding what a brand stands for and who it speaks to, we can create names that not only stand out but also build lasting relationships. www.myco.net.au www.terrypaule.com #Branding #ProductNaming #RetailInnovation #Lemnos #WeGrowWater #Findex #Biocheese #Meliora #CreativeProcess #MyCo #TerryPaule

Ever notice the psychology behind branding colors? 🌈🍴 Food restaurants often choose reds, oranges, and yellows because these colors are known to spark hunger (🍔🍟), while vegan options lean towards greens to emphasize freshness and health. 🌱 In the healthcare industry, it’s all about blues—symbolizing calmness, trust, and serenity. 🩺💙 Colors aren't just aesthetic—they’re strategic!

The sensory marketing is making sense.
