I understand and respect your strong belief in brandING. Starting some time ago, I noticed those I think are great managers of a brand don't use "ing" when they talk about the brand or vision of future brand. I am curious of your comments on my take: http://www.yourbrandplan.com/forum/personal-brand-career-strategy/972-there-no-ing-brand.html I love it here, Maria - great blog!

Thanks for your comments. I agree that when there's a disconnect between the "crafted message" and word-of-mouth - word of mouth prevails. I do strongly believe that there is a "ing" in brand--because people do evolve and while a brand provides a "snapshot" at the moment, branding is inclusive of the evolution of a person. And, beautifully, people are always evolving -- hopefully, along their same core values and foundation-- yet at times, as I've seen, there's that DEFINING MOMENT which can shift someone's course eternally. Stay Connected! Maria Elena Duron Hi David!

Thanks for your comments. I agree that when there’s a disconnect between the “crafted message” and word-of-mouth - word of mouth prevails.

I do strongly believe that there is a “ing” in brand–because people do evolve and while a brand provides a “snapshot” at the moment, branding is inclusive of the evolution of a person. And, beautifully, people are always evolving — hopefully, along their same core values and foundation– yet at times, as I’ve seen, there’s that DEFINING MOMENT which can shift someone’s course eternally.

Stay Connected!

We have a company here in Denver promoting excellent customer service and the word on the streets has been, well different. Management can promote a vision, but without sync, confusion may be part of the brand. Nice posts! A classic example of marketing vs. brand and why there is no “ing” in brand.

I have had bad luck with Enterprize and thought it was just small town stuff. They are never in their office when they say they will be and usually only bring in one car. It is probably on that nobody in Midland or Odessa will drive. If there were another car rental in this town I would definitely use them. Thanks, Ruby Maria, Thanks for the “branding” post.
