What are your thoughts on the subject?

I want to get the brand and model number off of this camera (it is going to be used somewhere we don’t want our competitors to see exactly what equipment we are using). I read somewhere using sugar on a towel as an abrasive but that didn’t do anything. Any other ideas?

Some people spend a lot of money in decorating their business outlet – especially if these are client interaction places. And some companies spend money on core product or service development rather than spending on overall packaging or presentation of the product. Which one is a better marketing or business model?

Now many people ask which one is the best strategy if you want to develop a good brand in any niche. Let us try to find out an answer to this question.

Before answering the question let us find out what we understand about brand.

A brand is mainly a perception – the way you perceive something or someone. Thus you cannot always determine what shod be your brand in the truest sense of the term. Your brand is determined by your target market. To add to this, two individuals of your target market may have completely different views about your brand.

A lot of people believe that the product you are selling is your brand. This is not true. To the most, the product may be a visual representation of your brand like your logo. We always think is terms of associations. We always try to associate something with another known thing for easy and better understanding and remembrance. Thus, your brand identity gets associated with your logo, company name, product range or even the telephone operator of your company.

It is always important that you invest on core product development. People will not buy your product if it fails to deliver desired result. At the same time, if you only focus on core product development rather than developing a proper brand marketing strategy, there are high chances that it will be lost in such a competitive market. They go hand in hand to reach the desired object – business.

So, if you cannot determine how your brand will be perceived, is there any need to spend on branding?

Yes; if you want a sustainable growth in your business, you must invest on proper branding. This will guide your business in the long run. People invest on branding because they want to guide people on how to identify the company or the product. Even if you do not invest on brand identity marketing and development, people will develop a brand identity for your company. However, the problem is that, in most of the cases it will not help your business. On the contrary, it may degrade your business.

What are the elements that may determine my brand?

This is one of the most important questions that you must answer to allocate your budget. A brand is normally a story that you tell people about you, your company or the product you are selling. This is a story that you believe and you target market would be interested to believe. A brand is a story that will engage the target market to talk about you.

Thus, you need to take care of all the visual aspects of your company like logo, color scheme, people, brochures etc. and what people are talking about you like newspaper coverage. All these things should have the same comprehensive story to tell about you. No one knows at what point of time your target market would develop an identity for you and thus you need to stay prepared for all occasions.

Do not forget to develop a story that your target market would like to believe and tell others.

Of course tattoos and body piercings are illegal if your under 18 and are without a parents consent. But what about scarification and branding if done by a professional? Do the same laws apply? And what if your under 18 but you do the tattoo yourself? Like you tattoo the image on your body yourself? Still illegal?

Ramon J. Land Watermelon Sales, Inc. has implemented TraceGains’ Positively Assured Traceability system at its watermelon packing and shipping operations. Land Watermelon Sales is now fully compliant with the industry’s Produce Traceability Initiative (PTI). In addition, the system enables Branford, Florida-based Land to perform instantaneous trace-back and track-forward searches for its products packed or shipped from any of its locations. As a result, Land can provide an even higher level of service to its retail customers by proactively monitoring and alerting to any suspect quality or safety issue before it reaches the consumer.

Land Watermelon sales operates at several owned and contracted grower locations in Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, and Indiana, accommodating consumer demand for fresh watermelon throughout the year. As melons are packed, attributes that identify farm, field location, pick date, and an array of farming conditions are captured and recorded. PTI-compliant GS1-128 labels are generated in real time and applied to every bin shipped. Shipping load and destination records are automatically linked to each bin providing an immediate single source of consolidated information. Using TraceGains’ patented applications, Land can view the entire pedigree of any product from the farm field to the retailer in a matter of seconds, and prove what shipments may and may not be part of any issue. With TraceGains patented Web-based secure data sharing technology for collaboration amongst supply chain partners, Land will also have the option to grant access of selected information to its business partners, such as transporters or retailers.

“Raymon J. Land’s objective is to take a leadership role at addressing the PTI” said Laura Land, head of Quality and Safety for Raymon J. Watermelon Sales, Inc. “However, our goal as a business is to elevate our value-added service to our retailer customers. In turn our information services enhance their ability to assure its customers—the  consumer—that they are buying a product that is safe and of the highest quality. While the industry initiative will help to reduce the scope of an outbreak, it will not by itself prove to the market that my products are safe and can remain on my customers’ shelves. If a quality problem ever occurs, our system will alert us to it and isolate the affected items, so that we can contact our retailers, and recall and replace it as fast as possible.”

Gary Nowacki, CEO of TraceGains, adds: “We are very excited that Land Watermelon has implemented our Advanced Brand Protection solution. Our mission at TraceGains is to not only help customers meet industry initiatives like the PTI or specific retailer labeling or traceability requirements, but also to continuously deliver the most leading-edge solutions that keep businesses one step ahead of their competitors.”

While TraceGains GS1-certified solution accommodates the standard labeling and tracing requirements of PTI, it also addresses the variety of customer specific requirements for labeling and documentation of farm/field and handling information that are prevalent today.

“There have been several retailer and food service-driven initiatives in the past, and we want be prepared to adapt to any changes in PTI or the needs of current and future customers,” added Land. “The TraceGains system will allow us to accommodate evolving requirements over the long term – not just for the current trends.”

“An additional benefit of our implementation is that it is tailored it to also improve accountability and accuracy in inventory and shipping management. While we are adding more complex identification to our shipments, we are simplifying some of our current procedures and expect to reduce labor in the process.”
