I am shocked at her obsession with the Eclipse brand!

She seems to think they have set up a corporation. The first week she split up her dream team because they weren't selling the "eclipse coffee experience", when the task was sell as much as possible not secure repeat business, then for the dog task she went on and on about "eclipse clips"

Should we expect similar brand plans for stealth now she has swopped teams and do people think thinking brand power is a good way to win challenges or is this the wrong tactic!

Discuss!

Branding is a very powerful marketing tool and in fairness to her, she could've had something with the e-clips thing if they'd had time to develop it properly. .......Not really necessary when you're selling coffee out of the back of a van for one day though.

I think she's going out of her way to make Sir Alan know she is aware of the power of a brand

I don't know I just get the feeling she is just a fan of reality shows and feels she has a checklist to cover

*Kick up a fuss
*cause tension
*Talk about yourself
*Talk about journey in retrospect etc

I don't know if she has branded anything the last 2 weeks but isn't she just using the name of the group? In these task they pretty much have to adapt to the jobs for the day like in the real world, giving your body of work a name isn't a far stretch

Getting your brand name up, and making people remember it is very important in business.

However, for the apprentice, she should focus on sales and such - not the brand.

The brand is not forever, doesn't hold any real significant importance to the tasks.

Either way,s hes too disruptive.
