Bandai Namco has confirmed that it will change its logo in April 2022.

The publisher said the updated logo would reflect its “new goal,” which is “to share dreams, fun and inspiration with people around the world to create a better future for everyone.”

Starting in April 2022, all companies that use the current yellow, orange and red Bandai Namco logo will switch to the new magenta logo.

According to the statement, the old logo was designed to represent the merger of Bandai and Namco when the two companies merged.

This merger took place 15 years ago, and Bandai Namco apparently decided that it no longer needed to be stated in their logo, hence the new design.

“The new logo’s speech bubble pattern, ‘Fukidashi’ in Japanese, expresses the brand’s potential to connect with people around the world and inspire them with amazing ideas,” the company says.

“The speech bubble also represents the manga culture of Japan which has become so popular everywhere. The logo represents our determination to communicate with fans around the world, to connect with our fans and to create entertainment unique to Bandai Namco.

“The magenta used as the pattern color not only represents diversity, but also creates a bright and fun impression and is easy to reproduce.”

Brand designer Nico Vliek, who has created logos for various entertainment brands including Scott the Woz and Cinemassacre, shared his thoughts on the new logo on Twitter.

“I think that makes them incredibly corporate,” Vliek said. “I loved their PAC-MAN color contrast as a nice tribute to the yellow dot and it still stands out among all the other game developer logos. I get the change, but a lot of what made the logo so cool is gone.

Vliek pointed out that the changes make sense from a business perspective, as the logo is easier to read when it is smaller, it is easier to reproduce in black and white, and it only requires one. color when printed (and the fact that it is magenta means that it can be faithfully reproduced on “normal” printers as well).

When you open your business to the market, you need to make sure that you understand how to get customers to try their luck in your business.

Realize that the majority of customers you turn to already have businesses they know and like to buy. You will have to convince them to switch sides. How can you do this? Well, you need to think about building high levels of brand trust in your business. There are a few ways to do this, so let’s explore some of the best options out there.

1. Focus on reviews to improve your products and services

Over 80% of customers will check online reviews before committing to purchase any products or services. On top of that, many online reviews are trusted to the same level as a recommendation from a friend or family member. So, reviews are important, but how can you make sure that your business even has a high number of reviews to work with? Well, it can be as easy as asking for them. You can ask a customer to rate your business after you’ve made a sale or send them a follow-up email to register and request a review there.

Businesses are often reluctant to ask for reviews because they fear the damage caused by negative or even mixed reviews attached to their brand. However, it’s important to know that zero reviews for your business will always be worse than a few that are mixed. Mixed reviews suggest you have room for growth, while no review suggests you are untested or untrustworthy.

If you’re getting negative reviews, you need to tackle it head-on. Respond to them in the public space and let future customers know that you are taking action to correct the problem.

2. Explore Video Marketing To Connect With Your Audience: The Right Marketing Campaign Can Boost Your Brand

Next, you need to consider your marketing choices. The right marketing solutions can ensure that your business appears more open and accessible to customers. For example, you might consider exploring video marketing. The benefit of video marketing is that it makes customers feel more connected to your brand and, most importantly, the people who exist behind the scenes and run the show. Video marketing provides a window into your business as well as your brand as a whole. It’s a great way to show that you have nothing to hide and that you can get creative in the way you use video marketing.

Video is also a great way to show that your business is more transparent rather than hiding things. Of course, that’s not the only marketing tactic that might work to build trust. You might also want to think about using social media marketing. The great thing about social media marketing is that it allows customers to connect directly with your brand. This is exactly what they are looking for. They want more personalized service and if you offer that they will favor your brand over other online options.

Or, how about the content. If you use the content correctly, it can also bring more confidence to your brand. The advantage of content is that it can add value to your target audience. It can make sure that you are giving them something more than just a product. You can use the content to deliver the key information they need or want. Or, you can even use content to make sure they’re entertained. It is entirely your choice which option you explore here.

If you are using content as a key part of your marketing tactic, make sure the quality is there. Don’t add anything other than junk to your website and it will make you look like a spam business.

3. Interact more with your team members to create an open culture

The team you choose for your business will always be the lifeblood of your business. Remember, it’s your employees that customers will interact with, not you. If they don’t trust your employees, they won’t trust your business as a whole. This includes making sure that your employees have the necessary training to be able to perform their roles the right way. For example, you should think about making sure they know how to reassure customers when they are faced with a problem they don’t know how to deal with.

Of course, training will only get you halfway. You need to hire the right people in your business. One of the ways to ensure this is to use a recruiting agency. The right recruiting agency will ensure that only the best candidates are considered for positions in your company. If you’re worried that team members aren’t providing the best representation of your brand, maybe it’s time to think about brushing up the group with some new hires who will work on your behalf.

4. Be consistent by sharing updates on social media and listening to customers.

You also need to make sure that you are consistent with your business brand. If you keep things consistent, you can make sure that customers feel comfortable continuing to make repeat purchases from your business. The classic example would be your terms and conditions. If these change at some point, you need to make sure that you give your customers plenty of warnings. If they feel like it’s a shock or a surprise, they may also feel cheated. You don’t want that.

There are various elements of your brand that need to be kept consistent. For example, you might want to think about your message, your design as well as your delivery. When it comes to your design, it should be consistent enough that customers can recognize a piece of your business’s content or product without needing to see the name. If you do this, you will not only build trust, you will create a strong brand identity that you can rely on in the future to sell products.

You also need to be consistent with your level of quality. If your quality drops significantly, you should expect bad reviews. Customers hate when a brand they trust lets them down and they will punish you for it.

5. Stay authentic by telling your story

It is important that your brand or business looks and feels authentic. If there is an issue here, it could mean that customers are struggling to find a reason to buy from your business because you won’t look like the real deal. So how can you ensure that your brand feels authentic?

Well, you should think about creating stories around your brand. Telling stories will always be a great way to sell a product. But you have to make sure you’re telling the right stories. Essentially, the stories should match your message, goals, and ideals. It can be difficult to achieve this at the best of times. So you should think about hiring a professional marketer to complete the process for you. With the right professional, you can create stories that capture the hearts and minds of your chosen audience.

You should also be prepared to invite customers to tell their stories related to your brand. In other words, don’t be afraid of user-generated content. It could be one of the best weapons in your arsenal.

6. Honesty will bring you more customers

Finally, you need to make sure that you value honesty when running your business, because your customers certainly will. The simplest example would be the information you put on your website. It should match the results that customers get when they buy from your business. For example, you can indicate on your website that your products are delivered in a maximum of 3 days. If it takes six for a customer to receive your product, then they might view your brand as dishonest. While mistakes can happen, you need to be prepared to let your customers know as quickly as possible.

Another example would be quotes you provide to customers. These should match the final price you give when they commit to a purchase. It is important to make sure that your prices are as transparent as possible and that there are no hidden costs associated with your business. You should, if you can, avoid the fine print. If your business is transparent with what you have to offer, it isn’t necessary and customers absolutely hate to see it. Everything should be clear and easy for them to understand.

We hope this helps you understand some of the key strategies you can use to build confidence in your business as well as your brand. If you do this, you will be able to gain more customers and make sure they are interested in buying from your business compared to other opportunities in the market. Be aware that it can take time to build trust. But it will always pay off in the long run. This can lead to brand loyalty, with customers staying loyal to your brand through thick and thin.

In May 2021, Irshad from Ernakulam in Kerala invested 5,000 rupees, in what he believed to be an investment program presented to him by a friend. The program promised investors 5% to 25% returns on their investments and even rolled out an app. Irshad trusted the website after seeing the CJ Affiliate logo on it and assumed it was an affiliate marketing company as well. Affiliate marketing is a system in which a person is paid a commission by a retailer when traffic is directed to them or sales are made through the referral of the person. CJ Affiliate, based in the United States, is a well-known online advertising company.

However, on August 24, the website went missing and customer support was unresponsive. A puzzled Irshad contacted the WhatsApp affiliate marketing group but found no response. “I invested because they had the logo of a well-known affiliate marketing company on their website,” says the 23-year-old, who added he would not press charges. .

Irshad earns 5,000 rupees a month by working nine hours a day as an assistant to a chartered accountant. “I don’t have the time or the money to take care of a police case,” he says. He says he was tricked by the website’s customer service into believing that the platform even had ties to Amazon India.

In addition to claiming to have linked with major e-commerce brands, the website also used the CJ Affiliate logo to gain legitimacy with Indian investors. In fact, to celebrate the 1 lakh records on their website, the website even held a three-day celebration event on August 22 where users could ‘top up’ (invest) amounts ranging from Rs 500 to 10,000. Rs and earn Rs 50 as a reward. In September, the website was down and customer support was unresponsive.

Akanksha Sinha, a 21-year-old from Mumbai, who lost Rs 50,000 via the same investment scam, approached Mumbai Cybercrime Police with a complaint. The aspiring model, who is a social media influencer, first learned about the investment program in January through a family friend promoting it. The family friend, however, warned her not to invest huge sums of money. “The promoters would hold meetings on Zoom urging people to invest but advising people against investing large sums of money,” Akanksha explains, asking other investors who have been defrauded to file a complaint. “But a lot of people are not ready because their losses are small,” she adds.

Potential investors were also reportedly approached via WhatsApp using fake phone numbers. “These fraudsters are trying to stay under the police radar by collecting money in small amounts but in large volumes. It is also common practice among crooks to use well-known brand names to gain legitimacy, ”says Sandeep Sahoo, director of the Save Them Foundation, a team of cybersecurity researchers and criminologists investigating several scams in Canada. India.

“The numbers they use will mainly be those of people whose devices have been hacked but are not yet registered on WhatsApp,” he adds.

The SaveThem India Foundation looked at the transactions victims made through UPI payments and found that the funds were received by several companies based in Bangalore. and the directors of these companies did not file Form DIR-3 with the KYC to obtain Director Identification Numbers (DINs) for the Company Director. Most of these companies were incorporated and had been in operation for less than five months, ”he said.

Sandeep says new investors should research companies they plan to invest in and check the app’s reviews on the Google Play Store. “People should read the terms and conditions, the privacy policy and should also read the notices before investing in unfamiliar platforms. If they claim to have any links to major e-commerce websites or affiliate marketing companies, check the official websites of those companies to see if they have announced such a tie-up, ”the technician adds, while suggesting suggestions. ways to spot a scam.

It says to observe the domain extension used to register the website. “Website domain extension matters a lot, websites with .in, .io, .com, .org are certified websites hosted by domain providers like godaddy for example. But crooks use free domain extensions like .cz, .tf or .sg, these are random domains. They were supposed to give people the option to host their own websites for free, but scammers are using them for their purposes, ”Sandeep said.

It is always advisable to invest in known investment instruments such as stocks or debt funds, explains the technician. “Follow well-known investment instruments such as stocks or debt or mutual funds or even known cryptocurrencies. But any investment decision requires researching and collecting information from multiple sources before making a decision. If someone says you can make a quick buck in a short period of time, it’s probably a scam, ”he warns.
