In this context a "brand name" constitutes a type of trademark, if
the brand 2 name exclusively identifies the brand owner as the
commercial source of products or services
Identify not only a product but also its manufacturer or producer,
such as Apple, Coca Cola, IBM, Mercedes, Shell, Sony, Toyota
 A brand name may be used and protected as a trademark

8. Brand Extension Strategy
Using an existing brand name to
promote a product in a different
category, is Brand Extension.
The key difference between line
and brand extension is the
product category.

10. Need of Brand Extension
In times of intense competition, to cover every niche, the best strategy available to companies
is to go for brand extension.
Customers use established brands as quality cues i.e. they use brand name as an indirect
measure of quality.
The benefit of “spill over of advertising” works for those products which are affiliated with the
brand.
Brand extension increases the visibility of brand.
Brand extension is helpful in catering lower or premium market segment.
When a company extends its brand name to another category, competitors react back; this
creates a dynamic environment in market.

RISK
Behaviour by consumers—boycotting the

communication or experience OR due to
changing social values
Retail space capturing, buying out of stocks,
removing stocks on display etc tactics by
competition
Political or community opposition to the
brand to do business within a geographical
region which limits its ability to develop.

14. FACTORS INFLUENCING THE SUCCESS OF
BRAND EXTENSIONS
The higher the perceived reputations of the parent brand, the more favourable should be
evaluations of the brand extensions
Extensions into categories perceived as more similar to the category of the parent brand are
more likely to be accepted compared to extensions into less similar product categories
The higher the perceived risk associated with the extension category, the more positive will be
evaluations of the brand extensions
Line extensions of strong brands are more successful than extensions of weak brands
 Line extensions of symbolic brands enjoy greater market success than those of less symbolic
brands
Line extensions that receive strong advertising and promotional support are more successful
than those extensions that receive meagre support

name is extended too far.
There is a risk that the new product may generate implications that damage
the image of the core/original brand.
There are chances of less awareness and trial because the management may
not provide enough investment for the introduction of new product assuming
that the spin-off effects from the original brand name will compensate.
If the brand extensions have no advantage over competitive brands in the new
category, then it will fail.

29. CONCLUSION
Brand extensions have been around for as long as brands
themselves.
There are just a few key requirements for successful brand extension
into other areas — related or unrelated. The first is that the brand
should have a strong position in its original space. A brand that is
weak in its original space cannot normally be expected to succeed
when extended into another area.
The second is the qualities the brand stands for. A brand needs to
stand for slightly “general” qualities if it is to be extended
successfully.
