Too many new companies and products have names that look like the results of a drunken Scrabble game (Xobni, Svbtle, Doostang). In this entertaining and engaging book, ace-naming consultant Alexandra Watkins explains how anyone-even noncreative types-can create memorable and effective brand names. No degree in linguistics required. The heart of the book is Watkins's proven SMILE and SCRATCH Test. A great name makes you SMILE because it is Suggestive-evokes something about your brand; is Memorable-makes an association with the familiar; uses Imagery-aids memory through evocative visuals; has Legs-lends itself to a theme for extended mileage; and is Emotional-moves people. A bad name, on the other hand, makes you SCRATCH your head because it is Spelling challenged-looks like a typo; is a Copycat- similar to competitors' names; is Restrictive-limits future growth; is Annoying-seems forced and frustrates customers; is Tame-feels flat, merely descriptive, and uninspired; suffers from the Curse of Knowledge-speaks only to insiders; and is Hard to pronounce-confuses and distances customers. This 50 percent-new second edition has double the number of brainstorming tools and techniques, even more secrets and strategies to nab an available domain name, a brand-new chapter on how companies are using creative names around the office to add personality to everything from cafeterias to conference rooms, and much more. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 Branding (Marketing) 650 0 Brand name products. 700 1 Buchignani, Claire,|enarrator. 710 2 hoopla digital. 856 40 |uhttps://www.hoopladigital.com/title/ 12454802?utm_source=MARC|zInstantly available on hoopla. 856 42 |zCover image|uhttps://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/ bkb_9781523084906_180.jpeg
