Brand names surround us, often to the point that they become a natural part of our everyday speech and as any successful entrepreneur will tell you, there is a myriad of components involved in creating a truly successful brand.

Although the most important part of creating a successful brand is providing a great product or service, the actual brand name itself carries more weight than you might think and there is a science to it.

But why do certain brand names stick and others don’t? Well, a word is more than a sequence of sounds, it's a whole network of associations, which affect how we think and feel about that word. As we go through life, we cultivate positive and negative connotations about certain words that are so ingrained in our brains that we don’t even realize it.

For the vast majority of business owners, the goal is to build a brand - and ideally, one that’s associated with positive connotations for the consumer.
