Designing inspired, strategic brand names  that have the why in them
What's the one question you never want anyone asking about your brand name?  Why'd you choose that one?   The brand should have its mission, purpose, and power all embedded and encoded inside the handful of letters or words you've used to construct it.  That's why we call ourselves Brand Nayme.  Because our names have the answer to that question — the why — inside them. 
​
Brands are special things.  They're more than just labels.  They're an important form of modern communication.  As powerful as poems, essays, and songs.  The good ones communicate key ideas, generate engagement, and serve as touchstones for emotions like trust, loyalty, and happiness.  That's why I love creating them.  Because it involves marrying creativity to strategy.

​

I've written books and directed films that shine light on important subjects.  I've also used the power of story to strengthen brands and drive corporate messaging — creating brands that have generated millions in revenue and designing ampaigns that have rallied people to causes, engendered trust, boosted morale, and saved lives.

​

Here's what I believe: at the heart of the best companies (and brands) are stories. 

​

And here's my motto: Content is king.  And good content is kinger.
