"Never tell anyone outside the family what you are thinking."
-The Godfather
Brand Equity is hard-earned and easily lost. The overarching goal is to build brand equity for each and every brand because we believe building brands is a way to secure our long-term goal of being sustainable and profitable, all while creating products that fill a need and do good. However, building brand equity diversifies our risk as an organization, and we should think about our brands and our structure as a potential playbook that we only share with our team. This helps us maintain our competitive advantage. We should leverage our size when it helps us negotiating with vendors or outside partners, but when it is our best interest to be small, we should be small. Let's keep it in the family.
