Title: GAA Associated Brand Name
Post by: Oak Leafer on May 18, 2012, 12:43:59 AM
Hi all,

Myself and a friend are considering a little venture, and have a potential product for the GAA market.

I was hoping for some ideas on a brand name, which would associate it with the GAA, without giving Croker anything to come get us! ;)

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Yes I appreciate it probably would, however I would prefer not to disclose.

It could be described as a training/performance aid.

Err, you're walking into very tricky waters unless you plan on giving the person whose name you use a cut of some description.

Why would I be using anyone's name?

To give you a simplified explanation, I'd like to incorporate words that could be  associated with the GAA e.g. Green, Gael, Irish etc

Throw a referee's jersey or opponents jersey on it and punch the bejaysus out of it.

Will sell like hot cakes in Derry but the Tyrone version may need a scrotum fitted for the tugging drills.

Ok,

I would have thought the GAA would come hunting you down if you were making money off their back, without running it past them?

Solo
Toe2Hand
Bouncy-Bouncy

or, to appeal to the Drogba generation:
Dive'n'Roll
FaceClutch
Simulation - you could have one of those poncy type ads they use for aftershave and stuff: "What does he when? When will it if? Why is he now? Could it be which? Is it because - Simulation?"

Thanks for all the suggestions. With me trying to be vague, i have led you down the garden path so to speak!

Its more a range of products, that can be used by all codes.

They will be able to enhance training/performance, and no they aren't drugs!

It's kind of impossible to come up with a name if we don't know what the products are.
