Heard a great quote recently, "Branding is just teaching someone how to think of you." When starting this can design for Culture Brewing Co I thought, like I always do, 'How the #%&@ am I going to make this can special? And not just take the typical approach of an aggressive-looking black IPA design?' I've had a pint or two of this beer and it is tasty, but how to visually communicate that? Why should you even care about trying it? Decided to take the Jedi mind control approach, utilizing said branding philosophy, and really just go the opposite direction of most black IPA cans out there. I never really know if a new design is going to work, but the longer I do this.. realizing to simply trust my intuition, the creative process, and just have fun with it.

You go to a salon and pay money for a hair cut. On what parameters will you evaluate your barber's/salon's performance? You go to a coffee shop and pay for your coffee. On what parameters will you evaluate the coffee shop's/barista's performance? How will you like it when the salon takes money from you, gets you to sit on the chair and then your barber goes about participating in a barber's conference OR Google searches 'haircuts' and writes a paper to publish in a barbering journal that other barbers review/edit? How is it helping cut your hair? How will you like it when the barista takes your order, also takes your money, but is more keen on presenting her skills to other baristas? Would you still give your business to that salon and coffee shop? Would you still fund their careers at the cost of yours? Would you not demand a service you paid for? So what if the salon and the coffee shop are ranked No. 1 in their fields? How is it helping you get your service—a service that you paid for? Have you seen restaurants that take money from their patrons but are only focused on participating in competitions and getting awarded Michelin stars --as in chefs trying to impress other chefs after taking money from their patrons but not actually feeding or serving them? If the answer to all the questions above is NO, better start relating them to your university and professors and ask if you are getting your money's worth. Or if you are funding the universities to pursue their own goals at the cost of yours. As customers, we get exasperated when the salon/coffee shop/restaurant either do not serve us or serve us halfheartedly, despite getting paid for the services. We feel cheated. And yet when we join universities, irony of all ironies, we do not feel cheated. Interesting, isn't it? We deserve the ranking brouhaha because we feed into the frenzy. It is interesting to see students fund and own a metric that has nothing to do with their education, a service that they paid for. #HigherEducation

Have y'all heard of Buc-ee's, Ltd.? (Yes...I brought a little Texas out there for y'all. Jennifer will be proud). When I lived in Texas many years ago, Buc-ee's wasn't a thing, so when we moved Paul down to attend Texas A&M University, we were told we HAD to go! Wow...it lived up to its reputation. And now is a staple for us to go to on every trip. A friend and business coach, Oie Dobier, just wrote a great blog about "The Power of Being Known for Something: Lessons from Buc-ee's". If you are in marketing or are running a business, take a minute and check out this post. https://lnkd.in/g5zY28PS ~ What are you known for? #CustomerExperience #Marketing #Business

M&S successfully defends appeal by Aldi in Christmas gin bottle design case at Court of Appeal. A copy of the full decision is below, but a few interesting points. (a) The actual product in use can be used to interpret what the registered designs covered. (b) The product description can be used to interpret the design drawings and thus the exact scope of the registered designs. (c) Maybe unsurprisingly, the designs (both identical and largely similar) disclosed by the registrant, M&S, in the one year grace period before he relevant dates (here the priority dates) of the registrations should be disregarded when assessing the question of infringement, as well as validity of the design registration. (d) The priority dates of the design registrations, not the filing dates, are the relevant dates for assessing the overall impressions of the designs. (e) The original judge made no error in assessing the overall comparisons.

"Ever meet someone and forget their name two minutes after they’ve introduced themself?" asks Karen McSteen, ISHC. 😳 "In 1956, an important body of research suggested the average person can hold around seven items in their short-term memory. It’s called Miller's Law. This thinking has often been applied to brand recall. A 2001 study conducted by Neil Cowan, Ph.D., a professor of psychology who focuses on working memory, suggested the capacity of short-term memory might be closer to four items. " Read on to find out how to make sure your brand name(s) are a valuable, long-term asset --> https://lnkd.in/e_kU6-6b #brandname #valueproposition #riseabovethenoise #hospitality Hotel News Now
