It’s officially December, I know you’re probably thinking the same thing I am, where has 2011 gone? The month of December doesn’t just kick the holiday celebrations into high gear, but every imaginable countdown of “best this” and “top this” will begin as 2011 comes to a close. And here at brandsalsa it’s no different! Throughout the month of December we’ll be listing out (in no particular order) the most talked about brands in 2011.
Every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday I’ll add to the list, so check back often to see who made the cut!
And without further ado, the most talked about brands of 2011 are:
The Royal Wedding
Some might argue this is not actually a brand, but when $70 million+ is spent on an event that garnered as much attention (and themed paraphernalia) as The Royal Wedding did I think it can be classified as a brand on its own. When Prince William proposed in November 2010 until the day they got married on April 29, 2011 it was non-stop royal wedding coverage. The Royal Wedding not only helped increase The Royal Family’s engagement and presence with their own brand, but with the nation’s brand as well by increasing exposure for the UK tourism, hospitality, and leisure brands.
