Just like a popular saying, “To err is to human.” Virtually everyone makes mistakes at one point of their life because no one is infallible. The mistakes we make however, leave an indelible mark on us, our businesses/brands and many other things that are possibly associated with us. Even the greatest and successful brands/businesses make mistakes that could possibly end up costing a whole lot of money, publicity or goodwill amongst customers, how much more the startups? Although the brands/businesses that are already successful can still make some corrections to make every thing right, however, doing this for startups could be very difficult because they haven’t gained any ground, hence, the need to avoid making expensive mistakes!

How can you then know your brand, business or company is dying? Below are the signs to know your brand, company or business is dying, failing or going under:

1. Low Sales

This should be the first thing to watch out for. This could be a sudden decrease in sales or sales lower than expected. Moreover, a business will never thrive when it starts experiencing this since there is undoubtedly no inflow of money to cover surfacing expenses, especially payment of employees.

Low sales, once noticed, the company needs to make quick or in depth study for the determination of the root cause of such problem. The result of the study gives a hint regarding where the problem is coming from. However, if the cause of the problem remains unknown, the company might be running at lost and eventually go bankrupt.


2. Increase in Customers Complaints.

One of the major pointers to that you’re missing something and doing things wrong is the backlash from customers. There is this general belief about customers being always right. Of course, they are and need to be treated as such. They must be given this awareness of always rightor else, they move away from your brand to another who is ready to treat them as such. Funny enough, you end up losing at the long run.

There is a direct link between customers satisfaction and brand growth; they are directly proportional to each other. When your customer is satisfied, happy and delighted at the service you have rendered them, they will in turn tell someone else about you; best way to grow your business because they are the one doing the advertisement. However, once you are not able to render them quality services, they will also tell someone else about you, but this time, destructively!

Moreover, when you have a lot of emails and feedback from customers being unsatisfied with your services, it’s time make some amendments, else, your business is at the verge of failing. The worst place a brand can find itself is not receiving feedback from customers. The next worse place is not responding to their complaints!

3. Reduction In Customer Interaction
One of the major metrics of measuring the healthiness and well-being of a brand is determining how well the brand is interacting with it’s customers. This is a key component to growth. If a brand/business/company communicating with their customers is not receiving any feedback from them, such an entity is in a very poor state as the need regarding when, why and how to go about making necessary changes might not be known.

One of the first thing you should established early when starting your brand is feedback. Never forget that. Ensure that your customers are able to reach you, and handle their complaints with much care. If you don’t have a system in place for this, you’ve shot yourself in the leg, automatically crippling your chances for growth.

Every business or must have a name. Its their identification in the business world. Adidas, Nike, MTN, Notjustbrands and Christie Signatures are all examples of brand names. Even though it is important for a brand or business to have a name, there are some prerequisite to choosing that special name a particular brand must have.
Part of the things to put into consideration is what your brand or business is set to deliver to the world. What problem or lapses do you wish to bring solution to? It’s important that your brand name must be captivating and enough to explain what your brand or business offers to the world. Its is not compulsory but it’s advisable.
Whatever business you are planning to set up, it is necessary to choose a brand name. However, this does not involve a mere selection of just any name but the necessary ability to choose the right name for your brand. Because your brand name stands for what your business is, picking a wrong name could result in an untimely collapse of the potential business.

Listed below are the necessary things to note while choosing a befitting brand name for your business.
1. Must Be Easily Remembered

A name to be chosen for your business or brand is meant to be easily remembered, even by a kid, although not necessary. This will require you to be aware of its pronunciation, spelling and how lengthy is going to be.
Choosing a lengthy name that will not be easily pronounced, and misspelt by people could actually lead to a business or branding catastrophe as many people will go around with the wrong names, that's quite saddening. However, this can be avoided by first conducting a quick survey for its pronunciation and spelling; trust me, this would give you a very good insight regarding how your brand name will perform out there.
Remember you want your name to be searchable, sharable and most importantly, memorable. Once you are able to get it right, you can then proceed to naming our brand.
2. Gives A Visual Perception

Sincerely speaking, people easily remember what they see than what they hear. Visually speaking, what is the perception of people towards your brand name? Are they able to link your name with an image? You should ensure that people can easily link your brand name to something (by adding a visual element) to help their memory.
The visual perception is not only limited to an image, but also extends to the color your brand name or logo is designed with. It has the intrinsic power of either working for or against your brand.

Everyone makes mistakes,that's what makes us humans. Even brands,great ones at that make silly mistakes that end up costing them lots of money,publicity or goodwill amongst customers. So,I've listed here some signs that indicate that something is going off,some things not quite right with your brand.

1. Increase in Customers Complaints.

One of the major pointers to the fact that you're missing something and doing things wrong is the backlash fro customers. There's the age long axiom about customers being always right. I agree totally. They have to perceive themselves as being right or they move away from your brand to another. You end up losing in the end.
There is a direct link between customers satisfaction and brand growth; they are directly proportional to each other. When your customer is satisfied, happy and delighted at the service you have rendered to them,they in turn will almost always tel someone about you. And that's the best way for you to grow.
So,when you have a lot of emails and feedbacks from customers being unsatisfied with your services,its time to change things up. The worst place a brand can find itself is for it not to be able to receive feedback from customers. The next worse place is to not respond to their complaints.

2.Reduction In Customer Interaction

One of the major metrics of measuring the healthiness and well-being of a brand is to determine how well the brand is interacting with it's customers. It is a key component to growth. If I'm communicating with my customers and I'm not receiving feedbacks from them,I'm in a very bad place. Why? Because I won't be able to see the things I'm doing wrong,neither will I be able to refocus my efforts to ensuring that I'm satisfying my customers.
One of the first thing you should established early on when starring your brand is feedback. Never forget that. Ensure that your customers can be able to reach you with anything they want to say, be it positive or negative. If you don't have a system in place for this,you've shot yourself in the foot, automatically crippling your chances at growth.

3. Lack of Passion

Another barometer for measuring your brand's growth is your passion for it. Almost inevitably, every brand started because the founders or instigators were so passionate about it. If you're passionate about something, you'd always to see it success, so it drives you to starting a brand. But when you discover that your passion for what your do is starting to wane,it's important to know that that is the beginning of the end for your brand. When you become more interested in making money and not in ensuring the integrity of what you do,you are already down a winding slope. Your fall is just a matter of time.
