Chapter 10 Product Concepts Branding Strategies Brand No Brand Manufacturer’s Brand Private Brand Individual Brand Family Brand Combi- nation Notes: The lack of a brand name, a generic product, can be a selling point. If a brand is used, the choice is made between a manufacturers’ brand, a private brand, or both.

Co-branding entails placing two or more brand names on a product or its package. Discussion/Team Activity: Name brands that fall into each of the categories shown on this slide. © 2016 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

Trademarks Chapter 10 Product Concepts A Trademark is the exclusive right to use a brand. A service mark performs the same function for services. Many parts of a brand and associated symbols qualify for trademark protection. Trademark right comes from use rather than registration. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) explicitly applies trademark law to the digital world. Companies that fail to protect their trademarks face the possibility that their product names will become generic. Notes: A trademark is the exclusive right to use a brand or part of a brand. Others are prohibited to use without permission. A service mark performs the same function for services. Parts of a brand or other product identification may qualify for trademark protection. Companies that fail to protect trademarks face the risk of product names becoming generic. This list includes aspirin, cellophane, thermos, monopoly, cola, and shredded wheat. Discussion/Team Activity: Discuss some heavily-protected product brands that are used generically in conversations. Examples might include Kleenex, Xerox, Band-Aid Brand Adhesive Bandages, etc. © 2016 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.
