BRAND CREATION AND LAUNCH

According to bestselling author Robert G. Allen, an info-preneur's goal is to create multiple merchandise licensing revenue streams that flow from your book (and book title). Your focus is not just creating a bestselling book, but bestselling book by-products.

If you envision your contribution to the world of entertainment or edutainment as a major franchise, FINISH LINE, the new Finish Line Division of AEI, can help you turn your vision into reality. Our years of experience with the franchises listed on the opening company page have provided the experience, expertise, and connections to provide you with:
  • Brand focus & definition
  • Brand evaluation
  • Logo
  • Website design and launch
  • Publishing & book line focusing and launch via major publishers or entrepreneurial publishing, both in the U.S. and foreign
  • Documentary planning, sponsorship, design, and implementation
  • Television program development and production
  • Feature film development and production
  • Music
  • Speaking career
  • Travel
  • Merchandising & licensing - video games, board games, apparel, calendars, toys, and other products suited to your brand
Essential to launching a brand is bringing it into focus. We will help you identify, develop, and financially evaluate that focus, use it as the foundation for building a memorable and lucrative brand identity, and create the elements that will introduce your original brand in all media to your target audience.
