Trademarks and Brand Assets
Brand extension is
a marketing strategy undertaken by numerous companies in which
corporate management takes a broad, strategic marketing view of the
future of their companies via their trademarks and brands. Companies
that utilize this strategy have strong and well-established brand names
and have broad-based and loyal consumer franchises. The brand is
usually established in one category and extends into another related
category. This marketing strategy enables the brand to enter an
entirely new product category through a licensing agreement or other
business arrangement. In brand extension licensing, the licensed
product assumes the identification of the brand to the consumer or end
user, and to the retailer. Co-branding is the process of joining two or
more brand names or trademarks on a single consumer product. This form
is utilized when all brands are strong and each adds value to the
product or service. CONSOR will review all the strategic alternatives
for licensing-in or licensing-out your brands or trademarks.
