I just read what seems to be random news where there is apparently a Lucky Charms and Cinnamon Toast Crunch spin-off of sorts in the form of some instant oatmeal. That immediately gives the product a lot of name brand recognition of course. Though I was just thinking, wouldn\u2019t marshmallows be kind of gross in oatmeal? It sounded so weird that it actually makes me want to try it.<\/p>\n
It got me to think a lot about branding too when it comes to products. If you took away the brand recognition even I wouldn\u2019t be as intrigued by it. But because I already associate those names with a certain product the idea of it being something else makes me curious. I suppose in many ways that\u2019s why it can be good to change things up too to generate more interest.<\/p>\n
Would you risk your brand in that way though where if the product turned out bad it could devalue the brand power as a whole? Although, I honestly don\u2019t think it would affect the majority in that way as I would imagine most people would see it more as like something \u201cextra\u201d as opposed to the \u201cmain\u201d product. Errr\u2026.I think I am going to try this stuff.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
