A Day of Brands, Day 2

Last week, I wondered about the infiltration of brands into my every day life. Looking back, I tried to recall all the different brands I had encountered that morning and afternoon. The list was pathetic with only 13 brands making their appearances. Clearly all of the brands that I use in one day were not making enough of an impact on my routine.

Last night I fell asleep reminding myself, “Branding Day tomorrow, Branding Day tomorrow” and miraculously remembered my task the next morning. So today, I’ve made certain to write down every brand I’ve encountered from the moment I wake to when my head hits the pillow.

Meanwhile, I had stumbled upon Jane’s Brand-timeline Portrait from a blog called Dear Jane Sample and decided to follow her lead and visually present my brand portrait the same way.

First, I can’t believe I missed 47 brands the first time I guessed at this! Second, I’m definitely not as cool as Ms Jane. Then again… it is a rainy Monday night.
