1.Google:

Google is a big global brand name, both online and offline. Nowadays people can simply google everything that they wish to know and take advantage of their different services. Google deserves credit for offering clarity where most other portals employ a jungle of links

2.Apple:

One of the most famous corporate logo in the world is the apple logo. Apple is a leader in computer and digital technology. Apple subscribes to the “less is more” theory and uses it to powerful effect, both in product design and advertising.

3.Nike:

Nike is a global brand and enjoys popularity of its brand name which is recognized all around the world.It is the number one sports brand in the world. NIKE designs most of its footwear for athletic use; however, in order to diversify its products, a large percentage of their products come from sales of footwear, apparel, and accessories for casual and leisure purposes.

4.Target:

Target brand’s strength shows in our iconic Bulls eye, which today is recognized by 96 percent of Americans. “Expect More. Pay Less” is the Target mantra. They also state what they believe in, “Connecting business and community, affordability and great design”

5.Starbucks:

Though experimenting somewhat outside of its charter with breakfast and lunch options in select markets, and offering branded music compilations, it seems safe to assume that Starbucks’ impact on the daily need for caffeine isn’t waning. A relatively cheap treat, Starbucks is a good example of socialized luxury.

One of the most popular wine producers of the world is Bacardi whose products are available in many major parts of the world, and it is desperately expanding the positivity of being together with friends. The rum of Bacardi is one of the most popular in the world especially in United States and this is the company’s aim to bring the people closer to each other and spread the message of social closeness in the air. Recently the company had arranged a survey on 5,000 people from American public and that was entitled as ‘BACARDI Together Index’.

Let me discuss some of the points of the ‘BACARDI Together Index’ with you because it was a very interesting survey that showed many interesting facts. The survey has showed that the daily interactions through the social media are not as better as the meetings and fun time with friends and family.

The main point that the company showed after carrying this survey was that the “social media togetherness” is not the same as “in-person togetherness”. The Bacardi is though a producer of almost every kind of wine and such drinks but the company always suggests taking these drinks at a very positive level as the extra consumption could be dangerous for the health as well as for the social life.

The company has been serving the people since 1814 and being such an old company, Bacardi has continued its passage of winning the hearts of people. In the Bacardi Together Index the different issues of People’s social life were discussed and that was very nice to know how much the people value the personal life over the most popular social media life. The 47% of people living in the city and 44% living outside of city were reported to be the highest scorers in the range of BACRADI Together Index.

One thing that the company emphasized was “Drink Together Responsibly” and this is what I have told earlier that the company’s chief focus was to tell people that these alcoholic drinks are produced for them but they should take all of them in a very positive manner.
