What's in a Brand Name?
Rock Christopher Marketing and Publishing is named for ...
When I created my first social media account on Twitter the username was limited by space,
so the Rock Christopher username fit. I also wanted to use the same exact brand name in every
social media network possible. My other consideration was creating a unique and exclusive
brand name. Also, "Rock" is my real-life nickname.
For example, I did not want to compete or conflict on Twitter or any other social media
with a high-profile brand name like the famous basketball player Chris Paul.
Additionally, I am writing books and once again decided that this was an author’s
brand name that I liked the best for these reasons as well.
For one, I thought that Rock Christopher would be more memorable and have more impact.
Beyond the fact that I was long ago in a Rock n Roll band and managed many bands
to put myself through years of college, I had a cherished compliment once that made
me see a purpose for social good in the name "Rock". For all of these reasons and
a few others, the strategic decision was made, and the "Rock Christopher" brand was born.
My point in sharing all of this is to give you an example of the importance of thinking
strategically when developing your brand name. It is critical to not only develop and
employ a name that is available as a domain name and as a username in social media,
but also one that gives you the image that your start-up, business, project, product,
or personal brand needs to be entirely unique and exclusive.
I bought the domain name RockChristopher.com the day I registered @RockChristopher
on Twitter / X.com, which gave me an additional exclusivity with that brand name.
If you have a start-up business or project that you need to name, my consulting
and planning services can help you create and capture a name that not only correctly
identifies who you are, but we will also provide this same type of thoughtful analysis,
preparation, and development to help you capture a truly unique and effective
brand name and image.
On an important personal note ...
Some of the main reasons I chose the content and theme of Personal and Business Motivation,
and Encouragements of @RockChristopher on twitter were personal ones.
In addition to wanting to create and build a brand name, build a proven social media
system and understand the best practices of building quality content and a
Twitter account, I had arrived at a point in life where, as Steve Job's said,
"I wanted to put a ding in the universe."
I had a personal life experience that many people go through. But, in a short
span of years many of my immediate family members, extended family members
and some close friends passed away.
It altered the way I looked at life dramatically and compelled me to cherish each day,
find true contentment in being consistently grateful and compelled me to want to
make a serious impact in this world for social good.
I wanted the account to be a place where I could always communicate values and things
that really mattered to inspire and impact the lives of others. I wanted to make a tangible
difference in the lives of people and encourage them to care enough to make a
difference in the lives of others.
On #SuccessTRAIN Monday I post over 400 social media post sharing the Business
Profiles of active Members on SuccessCENTER that are also on #SuccessTRAIN to help
them as a small business or entrepreneur in a tangible way. We don't just say we

reach.
In addition to @RockChristopher I created a number of other niche Twitter / X.com accounts

future web or blog projects).
