In terms of brand awareness, money, probably would be safe if you bet more people are aware of the MG Alessi. So why then it's back to a very popular and profitable organization showing a touch of European design and quality, while last year spent as an object of ridicule to finally went to the wall some years ago?
It all comes down to brand integrity and completion of the unwritten contract between the customer and the manufacturer that 'it continue to produce great designs and I will continue to buy and promote them.
GM was one of the creators of the great British sports car designs and produces affordable offering a good deal of fun wrapped in a seductive little body. It goes back to the 1920 small business adventure produced a series of designs that won the hearts of many young people in character on both sides of the Atlantic with a sense of "joie de survive."
The MG brand is thought still affected by motorists in the main until the unwritten contract began to be broken through terminals 1970. By this time the nefarious Goliath British Leyland MG and had swallowed up this gem of a brand became a victim of industrial madness that was inherent in the system.
The manufacturing sector British 1970's was as effective as a single leg jump. Making a great base when he was poisoned by years of mismanagement, lack of investment seditious unions generally unwell most of the people involved. The British car industry was the jewel in the crown of this sector ineptitude and the MG brand was miserable and helpless.
Followed a succession of designs that had the ability to sting like a butterfly and float like a bee. These designs have all the charm of terrier barking his great aunt Millicent and were just as likely to leave a puddle annoying. No amount of good will can protect an undertaking of such incompetence and customers began to reluctantly leave the mark appreciated in a mass exodus.
Even the renowned German efficiency making BMW possession was not enough to save that which had evolved over time in MG Rover. BMW decided to cut their losses, leaving the ship with the Mini brand and the sale of Land Rover and Jaguar from Ford. The rest of designs and brands in MG Rover were as attractive as a mangy old cat with asthma and a bladder problem - and the company just last long. A Chinese company now owns the name and it remains to be seen whether they understand the need for brand integrity.
The Alessi and the MG brand back to a period of time similar and so humble origins and innovative. However, Alessi has always remained true to its original ideals and honored the unwritten contract with their customers loyal. Brand Alessi is known for creating designs that are visually attractive, functionally efficient and manufactured with high quality. They also often contain a certain "je nais c'est quai "that can enliven the soul, not in a 'Affluenza', but because they have been created by people who want to enrich the world with beauty and compassion.
The team behind Alessi are fiercely protective of their brand and not blatantly throw Alessi logo on anything they do not move to increase profits. The same can not be said of some of the prestige car manufacturers out there that are in progressively diluting their brands. They are very careful Alessi the choice of their retail network and constant monitoring to ensure that their precious brand is not being exploited. This allows loyal customers to continue to buy with confidence and promote the brand further.
There are many forms of damage to brand integrity and the current obsession with celebrity culture has created an interesting twist the subject.
Celebrity endorsement is nothing new and clearly an effective marketing tool. Joe Public can buy the product associated with a desire for a small lifestyle piece of celebrity and the associated cache. A good example of this effect is the dramatic increase in sales of sunglasses after police association with David Beckham.
However, there has been a recent trend of high quality housewares manufacturers to produce designs that were allegedly created celebrities. This could be a series of kitchen utensils of high quality by a celebrity chef, or a range of designer bedding by a TV personality popular.
The problem is that these designs have a higher price and more often than not had any contact with most of the celebrity signing on the dotted line to get paid 10% royalty on each item. To add the current celebrity name for a product at a price of high quality, without adding no significant improvement, it seems at best shallow and at worst a scam. A former 'Changing Rooms' designer (and I use the term loosely) recently joked that he would be happy to support anything as long as he received a royalty payment.
People are not stupid and additional costs for designs with no appreciable advantage over the opposition often left on the shelves, ready to begin sales and reduced prices.
Is It is clear that the only beneficiaries of this are the celebrities who show a much greater capacity for self-publicity design talent.
Fortunately, Menu Alessi, Louis Poulsen, design, etc. I have fallen into this trap and credit real talent for designing new ranges of design. This method meets the contact is not written to the client and fosters new generations of designers, for all to enjoy.
