    why does Donald Trump put his name on EVERYTHING?

    Trump ICE (water with his picture on the bottle)
    Trump Taj Mahal (Atlantic City Hotel/Casino)

    I find it pretty lame! why does he have to put his name and picture on everything he sells? is fame that important to him?

              If he gave me enough money, he could brand my ass. Won't let him sell it though

                  Branding is the key to successful marketing. If many items (from clothes, food, cars, etc) didn't have a certain branding, than nobody would buy it...Especially when a lot of those items have such large price tags.

                    I hear him say in an interview that he felt wierd calling his tower after himself, but as a suggestion to him he did it. Now it's a brand and ended up being the smart thing to do.

                        You need to take a few marketing courses if you think it's "lame"

                          I'm mostly talking about Trump Ice, I think the name sucks for some water as well as his face on the bottle...

                              I think there many other successful companies on earth that do not contain some stuck up pricks last name. Eg: Coke, Microsoft. I etc.

                              I think they also do a lot better than the up and down billionaire with really bad hair.

                                    quality agree

                                    I just cant belive why internet porn dont brand more. Like Nasty Dollars... They could make a name for everything they do like Vivid and Private Enternainment do... money left at the table.

                                    I went from 100 to 313,000 satoshis in 2 days! Lots of daily freerolls...

                                              Branding is very important.. but I just can't see myself drinking water out of a bottle with Donald Trump's face on the label *shudder*.

                                              I also can't really see myself picking a known real-estate giant's water over a company like Evian etc. who are known producers of water and nothing else.

                                                  THAT is what I find lame
                                                  I understand the whole brandnig purposs, but Trump's branding seems pretty ugly to me

                                                                              "So everyone knows it's mine."

                                                                              He's built a nice brand, why else would they go to him to do the show "The Apprentice"?
