On naming products
Now, I don’t know much about this topic but I went ahead and did some research because this product I found cracked me up.
There’s nothing new about the actual item. Things like that have been out since I can remember, but I see how difficult it can be to market it.
I mean, only those with the right amount of ‘goods’ can actually get the desired results. There are also so many brands of this particular product that, as a company, you really need a great campaign to become the preferred brand.
These guys have done it, in my opinion. I know that by the time I need such product (hopefully not so soon), this particular brand will pop in my head.

Here is an excerpt form Wiki (yes I’m a Wiki Junky) on naming products:
“A key ingredient in launching a successful company is the selection of its name. Product names that are considered generally sound have several qualities in common.
- They strategically distinguish the product from its competitors by conveying its unique positioning
- They hold appeal for the product’s target audience
- They imply the brand’s benefit
- They are available for legal protection.
- They allow companies to bond with their customers to create loyalty.
- They have a symbolic association that fortifies the image of a company or a product to the consumers.
- They help motivate customers to buy the product.”
