Branding your Online DVD Business

By: Brent Crouch

The term "branding" is very popular in the business marketing world. Branding refers to creating an image for a company or product. For example, when you think of Nike, what do you think of? Probably a the phrase "Just Do It". That's exactly what the company that makes Nike wants you to think of and they've spent millions to ensure you do just that. Welcome to the world of branding.

Companies spend thousands of dollars on branding efforts each and every year. In fact, many marketing professionals believe that branding is critical to the long-term success of a business. If you want your business to thrive and grow, you're going to want to look into branding. The good news is, you don't have to spend thousands of dollars to do it. There are cost effective ways to brand your DVD business and you'll achieve the same results others pay thousands for. The best part? You'll be one of the very few eBay sellers focusing time and effort on the benefits of branding.

One of the most effective branding tools is a logo. If you do absolutely nothing else in your branding efforts, at least have a logo created that your customers can recognize you by. How much you spend on logo creation will depend on how complicated and intricate you want your logo to be and who you hire to create your logo for you. You can get a basic logo for less than a hundred bucks or you can have a logo done by an expert artist for a few hundred. Remember, regardless of how much you spend, an outstanding and memorable logo is well worth the investment.

Once you have your logo, put it everywhere. Put it on your auction template, mailing labels, business cards, letterhead, t-shirts, etc. There are a thousands different places you can put your logo that will make it both effective and memorable. The more your logo circulates, the more brand recognition you're creating for your business.

By adding a tagline to your logo you are sure to stand out amongst the competition on your branding efforts. A great example of a tagline is the phrase "I'm loving it." This is the tagline that McDonalds uses in their branding efforts and think about how long that little tune stays in your head once you hear it. Create a tagline that is memorable and shows the consumer what your online business is all about. For instance, "Affordable DVDs and Awesome Service" is a basic and simple tagline, yet it gets across the image of your business.

If image is everything, branding is the money that buys you whatever you want. Without branding, you cannot effectively create an image for your business and without a business image, there's nothing to set you apart from your competitors.
