8 Proven Techniques for Creating New Names

This event is over.

Naming something may be the most universal aspect of business. Whether it's a product or a service or a company name, you've got to call the baby something.

Roughly two-thirds of all American companies, according to surveys, would prefer to do the job themselves and keep it in-house - rather than using ad agencies, naming consultants, contests or other means.

This webinar is based on years of consulting, helping companies develop new names and shepherding their task forces through the process.  It will:

  • Take you through proven ideational techniques, all designed to generate hundreds of naming possibilities.
  • Equip you and your colleagues with the thought-starters and mental prods to do a better and faster job of name-generating.

Webinars are for ANA Members Only.  If you are a non-member, client-side marketer interested in attending a specific session, please email training@ana.net to request a one-time, complimentary guest registration.
