Textbook - How does a company connect its attributes and positioning in the marketplace? (page 624-625)
-a logo can do this but not alone, a *brand identity system* needs to be employed The visual identity is the better known part of the brand identity system. It uses the elements of the corporate identity system but is wider and deeper. The building blocks of the system include a company's name, trademarks, tagline, and logo. It also focuses on the elements that come together in almost any communication: imagery, typography, design, color, and consistent message. It may include a system that maps different communication vehicles (e.g., brochure, web site, direct mail, and CD-ROM) to audience content and production values. Education and training may play a part in the system.2Without a consistent and cohesive approach to brand identity, a company's communications may not generate the desired results. There are also digital issues. Lippincott Mercer, a brand-consultant company that currently helps manage identity (including Advanta, Kraft, Nissan, Bayer, Samsung, McDonald's, Borders,Walgreens, Medco, Olive Garden, Coca-Cola, Deloitte Consulting, and Ameriprise Financial), believes that globalization and consolidation will continue as major business trends for many years to come. As a result, advanced communications and information technologies, such as the Internet and company intranets, will provide firms with bold new avenues for delineating and projecting their corporate and brand identities.

-adopting a package that is conducive to getting shelf space at the retail level. -A unique package with strange dimensions, protruding extensions, or nonflat surfaces is going to be rejected by many retailers. -A package must be easy to handle, store, and stack.
