When the weather's hot, do you enjoy a glass
of Brad's Drink while watching your TV made by Tokyo Telecommunications
Engineering, and surfing the web using a search engine called BackRub? No?
Neither do I. That's because all these companies have changed their names.
Brad's Drink is now Pepsi. The mouthful that
was Tokyo Telecommunications Engineering has become, simply, Sony. And BackRub
is now known as Google. Though I must admit, the idea of a back massage does
sound good right now!
Joking aside, choosing
the right name for your start-up is a serious matter. Think of the case of a small
Canadian company called Research in Motion, who in 1998 had just developed a
high-tech mobile phone that could send emails.
They were torn between names like MegaMail
and ProMail. Then they sought the help of consulting firm Lexicon, who
specialize in brand names. They had other ideas. They brainstormed words
connected to enjoyment and freshness. Someone said.
Lexicon's boss added two capital letters,
and there you have it: BlackBerry was born. Since then it has sold over 33
million handsets to customers around the world. Would it have sold as well if
it was called MegaMail? Who knows?
Recently, BlackBerry sales have been
overtaken by Android phones and Apple's iPhone. Lexicon's founder David Placek
is a big fan of simple brand names like those Apple chooses: the iPhone. They
l0ok a household word and by putting one letter in front of it, it ends up
being game changing.
So, for all you entrepreneurs(企业家)out there, make sure you allow time to develop a catchy and
memorable name. Think about what makes your company different. What's your USP
(独特的销售主张)? Maybe you can reflect that in your name.
What about you? What would you call a
