BRAND SYMBOLS

AND LOGOS

A brand symbol or logo is a graphic representation that identifies a business or product. Sometimes a symbol or logo could include both a graphic image and a name but some businesses encourage instant recognition without using the brand name. This is a clever and subtle method

used to reinforce the meaning of the symbol and to associate it with the brand name.

When deciding on a brand symbol or logo a marketer must take into consideration the following factors:- Brand name which differentiates itself from its competition - Using images which appeal to the target audience- Easy to interpret- Relative to the product being sold- Challenge ethics of society in order to be memorable
