PayPal: Creative Branding (Inspiration)


Hello, I’m Jim Glover, That Branding Guy, for Once a Day Marketing™. Today we are sharing a great example of inspired branding.

Recently I had the opportunity to stay in Phoenix, Arizona for a few days. Next to my hotel was a building for PayPal, an international e-commerce business allowing payments and money transfers to be made through the Internet.

As I was driving by the entrance to their building I couldn't help but smile. The name of the dedicated street that entered their site is One Payment Way. It's clear from this effort that management at PayPal understands that a brand is simply everything. This is brilliant branding and also reflects that the company has a sense of humor.

Every day commuters not only see the bold company name on the side of the building but also are consistently reminded of the services that PayPal performs.

As you continue to develop and enhance your brand think about clever ways that you can capture mindshare with your customers. Gain some inspiration from the PayPal initiative to name a road about the services they offer. Remember it's the little experiences you share that reflect your brand.
