Are you one of those individuals who want to do their part for the environment, but don’t know where to start? Many people have what I call “objectitis, paperitis, timeitis,” or in other words “stuffitis”. Now if you go to the dictionary, you won’t find these words . . . Yet!  But many people suffer from these conditions and it’s only a matter of time before dictionary.com catches on. The first step in doing your part for the environment is to eliminate all of the excess . . . And to stop bringing IN all of the excess.

Logos that Even a 5-Year-Old Can Recognize

Posted by Derek De Hanes in Starbucks , Logo , Identify brand , Brand Recognition

Derek De Hanes

A company's identity affects people of all ages. Listen to the adorable-sounding little girl in this video. She is asked to identify various logos. I found her take on each one refreshing

Most of the companies in this video have done an amazing job at branding themselves. When a child identifies your logo as the "coffee" logo without hesitation, you have made yourself about as recognizable as possible.

The more brand recognition you get at the end of the day, the more likely people are to buy your product. Good job Starbucks.

Until Skype.
