Hi Guys,
People remember Brand Names. They don't remember you. Just like women remember emotions you associate them with and men remember value you give them to practice in their lifes. DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO SAFE YOUR CREATIVITY/BRAND NAME.
You might ask me why. Because i have seen other companies who will not care a shit about you and take your name for granted. But i am going to share people who have safeguard their brand names or creative control at all cost.
1) 50 cent with his label G-Unit, kept creative control
2) G Dragon with his Leading Korean Boyband, BIGBANG kept his creative control
3) Donald Trump, who kept his assets during his close to bankruptcy period
Companies might want to take your brand name or your name but the thing is they only see surface value, and sometimes it is underutilize and be gone. If I were a boss and i tookover Girlschase and Chase is not here, the value of content is here, but it probably may not be the same unless i set the standard as the same. If i manage to set the standard well, the real owner will be forgotten soon. If i don't, the name/brand will be useless and it be gone soon.
If you think about it, it's really sad to see your brand goes away because someone mishandle it and sometimes it can happen. SO do whatever it takes, even BIll Gates still have control over Microsoft even if it means to be Non-Executive CEO.
Perhaps i am too overthinking but whatever you know.
