Johnson Design Group Practices What It Preaches:
Launches JDG Communications
Falls Church, VA — Johnson Design Group, one of the Washington, DC-area's most successful marketing and branding consultancies, has changed its name to JDG Communications, following the same strategic branding advice it has offered corporate, government and association clients for 21 years.
"The name change represents the evolution of the company from a graphic design firm to a full-service communications company that provides strategic marketing solutions. Our new name better positions JDG to reflect our strengths," explained Len Johnson, president, at the eBusiness World Expo in Washington, DC. Johnson was a seminar speaker, delivering an address on branding in the new economy.
The focus of JDG Communications is delivering on its own brand promise: "Strategic Marketing by Design" to achieve exceptional results. Also, at the eBusiness World Expo, Johnson introduced JDG's Brand Building Continuum™, a comprehensive, systematic approach to branding that aims to move clients from reactive "tactical execution" to long-term strategic vision and management.
"Brands without meaning and differentiation will behave like commodities, and be limited to commodity-like pricing, where the price is not determined by the owner of the brand, but by every other competitor," Johnson said. "In these cases, a company's brand isn't worth more than a mark on a cow's rear-end."
