What is A Brand?

As part of a PPRD lesson we each had to look into brands and be able to explain what a Brand is and how they are defined. These are just some of my notes from this lesson.

The definition of a Brand-
A Brand is a name used to identify a specific product, service or business. A legally protected Brand name is called a Proprietary Name.
A Brand can be reconsized in many different way depending how the producer wanted you to see the Brand.
A Brand can be summed up in a word, image, pharse, colour or person, and they can be used to show different things about a label.

Below is a list of Brand elements

• Image
• Brand Experiance
• Brand Expectations
• Creating an Impression
• Qulities and Characteristics

• Brands can show what a lable can offer
• Target Audience

A part of my course is about finding my brand as a person, this will make me more appealing to the Fashion Industry and I'll be able to sell myself alot easier if I produced one. So far I have only been able to brand myself in words and values.
