Our Proven Formula = Zero Naming Disasters
TravelingBrand has prevented more than 55,000 potential naming disasters and guided countless identity consultants away from embarrassing and expensive mistakes. Our formula of knowledge plus action has yielded zero brand disasters. Not using a service like ours is a risky proposition. One out of three names we test fails. Is that the kind of risk you want to take?
In short, our proven process is one that you won’t find anywhere else. We leverage linguistic specialists living in the country where your brand will be introduced, ensuring that local dialects, slang, events, culture, politics and market realities are captured. Those insights are then presented in a concise and customized report with verified, actionable information and recommendations that sets your client up for success. If your brand is traveling, invite us on the trip so we can protect your reputation and help your clients succeed internationally.
