Welcome to our podcast. In this episode, we explore ten shocking negative brand image examples and extract valuable lessons from poorly branded products. Learn how seemingly successful companies have stumbled and what you can do to avoid similar pitfalls that can severely damage your brand's image and reputation.

We dissect the stories behind some unforgettable branding fails, including:

• The Coca-Cola Company's "New Coke" fiasco of 1985, where a formula change led to a massive public outcry and a loss of trust. Discover how even established brands with strong identities can misstep.
• Jell-O's journey from a beloved dessert to a brand associated with being bland and tasteless due to flavor and nutritional value changes.
• Pepsi Blue's attempt to capture the market with a brightly colored, berry-flavored soda that ultimately failed due to its artificial taste and controversial coloring.
• Heinz's EZ Squirt Ketchup, a colorful product aimed at kids that saw initial success but was eventually canceled as health concerns over artificial food dyes grew.
• Bic's "Bic for Her" pens, a product that was heavily criticized for its illogical gendering and misogynistic marketing. Understand the importance of doing your homework before launching potentially controversial products.
• Google+'s entry into the social media landscape, which ultimately failed due to an inability to understand customer needs and expectations, despite Google's vast resources.
• Amazon's Fire Phone, a smartphone venture that was abandoned after just a year due to a flawed pricing strategy.
• Coca-Cola Blak, a coffee-cola fusion that was discontinued due to negative consumer feedback regarding its flavor and high caffeine content.
• Donald Trump's "Trump Steaks," which promised the "world's finest" but failed to meet customer expectations and suffered from weak sales.
• Colgate's foray into the frozen meal market with "Kitchen Entrees," a move that backfired as consumers couldn't shake the association with toothpaste, even leading to a decrease in toothpaste sales.

Through these examples, we uncover crucial lessons about what can lead to a poor brand image, such as:

• Misleading advertising through false claims and inaccurate labeling.
• Making false promises that cannot be kept, leading to consumer disappointment.
• Producing poor quality products that tarnish the brand's reputation and erode consumer trust.
• The significant impact of negative reviews shared by customers online.

But it's not all doom and gloom! We also provide actionable tips on how to avoid a poor brand image, including the importance of:

• Establishing a good reputation by being seen as trustworthy and dependable.
• Maintaining good customer retention by keeping current customers happy.
• Ensuring consistent messaging across all marketing content to build trust and recognition.
• Producing quality products that consumers can rely on. Utilizing attractive and professional packaging that reflects your brand identity.
• Implementing a pricing strategy that aligns with the quality of your products and services.
