I have a doubt. I have a client selling Mocktails. Now they want to do a brand extension with Water, Cocktails & Iced Tea category? 'you think they should create the Architecture in 'House of Brands' or 'Branded House'? Given a choice, I would personally prefer the House of Brands for them but they want to extend with the existing name. What do you think?
Video lighting is too bright on your forehead. Also, your camera is set to autofocus, and it was hunting for focus at 0:10. I recommend you lock focus on manual. Furthermore, I can see a shadow on your background. This means you are positioned too close to the background, making it feel like you are up against a wall. It's easier for the viewer to focus just on you when the background is darker than the subject (you). So, I recommend you put more space between yourself and the background.
What specifically makes a branded house sub brand, a brand, and not just a product of the parent brand? I'm sure its more than just a name and logo. And what are the benefits of making their products a sub brand?
I think Hubspot is a example for Branded house. With a blog, Academy, CRM Tools.... That Structure is very interesting for me compared to 2nd structure. 😻✍️ Love your contents brother, Steven... ✌
Do the brands within the branded house have the same brand personality, something similar or exactly the same? Since the sub-brands can cater to different target markets, but at the same time be relatable to the other sub-brands.
They can have different personalities to appeal to more specific markets... As long as the parent brand is present and the sub-brand is utilising the association
Im having a real issue here and would love your advice! I have a vegan food brand, lets call it "veggie ltd". It operates in the UK and it sells a superfood similar to quinoa. Now I am expanding to Nigeria and in this market, customers are really not into the whole veggie thing. What do I do? Do I create a separate brand and how would it fit into the architecture? I took ur course on udemy. It was great btw.
If, as a vegan brand, you're expanding into a market where they don't value the benefit of what you offer, the question is... why are you expanding into that market?
Thank you that is great. I have a client is providing an odd mix of products (bike parts / clothing label / etc), but to the one, same target audience (the male play-boy / dirt bike lover), so we went with the brand of houses idea. His whole brand strategy is built on the Maverick / Ruler personality, so it keeps all the visual and verbal messaging fairly straightforward... so far!
The Nestle brand is another example of an Umbrella branding structure yet it is the sub brands that would be considered the "endorsed brands" as they are endorsed by their parent "Nestle"
Brand extention is when a brand extends into a new category. Often this happens under same brand (eg Apple extending into phones), but it can also happy in various architecture structues eg a new brand (endorsed brand) endorsed by the parent (endorser brand)
We started our company years ago and created a brand-specific to mowing. We now do many other services outside of the landscaping niche, so we have launched different brands associated with those audiences. Currently, all of our billing and office customer services are still performed by our mowing office. So the message is confusing for new clients that call in or when folks see a new name on their credit card statement. Additionally, our company culture is muddled with some employees not having any idea about who we are or where we are going. Thus the search begins for defining our Brand on the whole and in the individual branches we seek to build.
Sounds like you need to step back and rethink the structure of your brand, then consider your employee branding (I have two videos coming out in the next week on this). When you have your structure set, your processes following suit asnd all your employees on the same page, you have everyone and everything piulling in the same direction
As with any ownership setup. The business generates the revenue and the owner of that business decides where the profit goes (eg how much profit is taken out and how much is put back into the business)
