The following tools are a must if you are on your way to digital dominance. Some are apps and some are tools you can simply use from online. Most are free but some require a small fee or subscription to use the service. Some of them I use quite frequently, while others I am looking forward to trying, including Spy Fu and Holler. 1. Namecheckr.com (www.namecheckr.com): Use this to check and see if a name is available before you get attached to it. See if the domain is availabl...e and all the social media platforms that would be associated with it. 2. Trademarkia (http://www.trademarkia.com/): Find out if the name or slogan you’ve chosen has been trademarked. 3. Wayback Machine (http://archive.org/web/ ): Ever wondered what an online brand might have looked liked in it’s early stages? Hey everyone starts somewhere. Type in a url and be taken back in time to what a website looked like in it’s earlier years. 4. Wordswag (app): For those who aren’t Photoshop savvy and want to create some appealing text graphics for their brand. 5. Uber Conference (https://www.uberconference.com/): Got a meeting of the minds? How about a free conference call? 6. Haro (https://www.helpareporter.com): Is a mailing list where small businesses can come across some pretty cool opportunities, like a list of upcoming events that need items for their gift bags. 7. When to Gram (app): An app that does just what it says. Tells you the perfect times to post on IG according to your account.

ARE YOU A CHEATER BRAND? On last week’s episode of the Real Housewives of NYC, Bethenny Frankel called out frenemy Sonja Morgan for naming her wine venture something that sounds dangerously similar to her highly successful brand Skinny Girl. Sonja had announced that she would be calling her line of Prosecco Tipsy Girl. (que serious eye roll)... Well of course there was a catty sit down in which Bethenny told Sonja the name for her wine was what is called a CHEATER BRAND. Defined as a brand that rides the coattails of a more well known brand, by either blatantly stealing product ideas or doing things too similar to be a coincidence. Sonja refuted those claims, however I’m going to have to agree with Bethenny here. Skinny Girl coined by Frankel in 2009 originally started as a line of books, and an exercise DVD. Eventually Bethenny would take the name and brand it as a line of spirits called Skinny Girl Cocktails, for the calorie conscious. Bethenny later sold the brand to Fortune Brands’ Beam Global for an estimated $120 million. The name really became known and synonymous with being a chosen spirit for women counting calories in their alcohol beverages. It is very obvious here that the name Tipsy Girl being given to a wine is a play on the "Skinny Girl branded line of cocktails. I’ve seen this happen a few times with established brands as well as up and coming brands have ideas blatantly stolen from them. Be inspired but not a copier. What usually occurs when you try and imitate someone else is you do exactly thatlook like an IMITATION. If you want longevity in your brand and for people to take it seriously be yourself, and figure out a way to do it differently. The market place can be crowded, but those who stand out do it by finding their OWN VOICE. First there are the originators, then there are the imitators, then there are the fools.

If you want your Victoria’s Secret fix you have to shop in store or online as they have decided to bring their catalog circulation to an end. The L Brands-owned retailer has been producing Up to 300 million copies of it’s catalogs per year, at a cost of $125-$150 million annually. However, when VS did an experiment reducing the number of catalogs it sent out by 40% they found sales didn’t even take a hit. The catalog has been in circulation since 1977 but has been a point o...f contention due to the massive volume of natural resources needed to produce it. VS really had to think about what they would do for a key marketing strategy in 2016 and a paper base mailed catalog certainly isn’t it. With the internet and online shopping a catalog has really become a relic by today’s marketing standards. VS will also no longer be selling ready to wear, swimsuits and shoes. The move will allow the company to focus its energy on the core of its brand, lingerie. See more
