The Basics of Product Branding: Importance and Impact
At Private Label Specialties, we prioritize client education to help you make the best brand-related decisions for your business. In today’s blog, we will discuss product branding, its importance, and how Private Label Specialties can support you with expertly branded beverages.
Defining Product Branding
First, let’s explain what we mean by product branding. Product branding is a great way to enhance your business's recognition and increase profits. By having uniquely branded products that align with your image, you can make your brand more memorable and cultivate a loyal customer base.
Take Apple, for example. Their sleek, minimalist apple logo is recognized globally and is synonymous with their high-tech products. This product branding reflects the image they wish to project: clean, modern, and elevated. Whenever someone sees a MacBook, buys AirPods, or views an ad for the latest iPhone, the simple, well-designed logo imparts a sense of exclusivity and quality. This association makes customers more likely to remember–and buy from–Apple.
The Benefits of Product Branding
When people need something—a restaurant, a plumber, you get the gist—the first place they look is actually not the internet, but their own memory. Our brains prefer the simple and easy route, relying on top-of-mind associations to solve problems. To become the first choice in your audience’s minds, you must show up repeatedly. Ideally, you’ll make an appearance seven to ten times to create a strong connection.
One cost-effective and efficient way to achieve this is through product branding. Instead of investing in television ads, billboards, or content creator partnerships, you can create a simple yet memorable association with your brand through product branding.
At Private Label Specialties, our Unique Branding Advantage™ is particularly special because it combines visual and sensory experiences. Think about how certain scents evoke memories: pencil shavings might remind you of elementary school, or freshly cut grass might make you think of summer. When customers enjoy one of our distinctively delicious beverages, they form associations with your brand that they’ll remember later. So, the next time they have a root beer—even if it’s not our root beer—they’ll recall the positive experience they had with your branded beverage and think of your brand. This is how you become the go-to pizzeria, sub shop, or car repair service in their minds. This is also how you beat out your competitors and establish a loyal following–while selling drinks that make you money in the process.
There’s one last thing we want to mention. Everyone loves a refreshing beverage, and your business will benefit by carrying delicious drinks, but megabrands like Coca-Cola and Pepsi-Co don’t need your help with branding. You need to brand yourself, and we can help you do just that with our premier beverage flavors that are beautifully labeled with your logo.
