El poder de la marca. Branding is the new advertising

1

The risk of operating without registering your trademark is much higher than it seems. In such a competitive market, not having your brand protected is a real threat to your business. A third party with a registered trademark can stop you from using yours, even if you started first, and the worst part is that you could face a significant compensation claim. It’s surprising how many businesses invest in building their corporate identity (name, logo, marketing, etc.) but don’t take the step to protect what represents them in the market: their own brand. With a small investment, you can avoid a legal disaster that could jeopardize all your hard work. If you're already in a complicated situation, contact us. As trademark experts, we will help you find the best solution. Protect what you’ve created! 💬

Although #RENFE (Red Nacional de Ferrocarriles Españoles) (Spain) had officially begun its life on February 1, 1941, the Board of Directors did not fully assume its functions until August 1. During the six months between both dates, the Boards of Directors of the three large companies (Norte, MZA and Oeste-Andaluces), created on May 8, 1939, continued to be active. On this day in 1941, the company began to operate fully, with a Board of Directors that focused its first efforts on two tasks: increasing its income and improving its facilities and material through an improvement plan and a plan for the electrification of railway lines. 60 years later, Fernando Fernández Sanz published 'Aquel primer año 1941' in the magazine Líneas del Tren, which summarized the beginning of Renfe's operation. It was a period full of difficulties for the newly born Spanish National Railway Network, with the threat, in addition, that the war that had started in Europe would spread to Spain.

¡Conseguirá su objetivo un 'tourist tax' de 4 euros por noche en Barcelona? Según The Economist, no.... 👥 Los que vivimos en el centro histórico de ciudades (Madrid en mi caso), hemos visto como el crecimiento del turismo ha cambiado radicalmente nuestro entorno. 🏪 Muchos comercios tradicionales han desaparecido en favor de bares con terrazas que inundan las aceras, y a determinadas horas es difícil dar un paseo tranquilamente. El barrio ha perdido su carácter. 🌍 Pero esto son inconvenientes menores comparados con el impacto que el turismo tiene en Barcelona, que con 6 visitantes por residente (frente a 1,7 en Madrid) es la cuarta ciudad del mundo más 'invadida' por turistas (tras Ámsterdam, París y Milán). 💸 Y lo que es peor, los turistas en Barcelona son de los que menos gastan: unos 1.000 euros por visitante, frente a los 2.500 euros de los que vienen a Madrid. 🗣️ Por eso entiendo a los barceloneses que piden que se ponga algún límite a esta situación. Parece claro que a veces, lo de 'cuantos más turistas vengan, mejor', no aplica. 📉 The Economist, que viene observando con cierta perplejidad el rechazo que se está despertando entre algunos españoles contra nuestra principal industria, explica que esta situación es un 'fallo de mercado'. 🏛️ Ello justificaría una intervención pública, mediante impuestos especiales a turistas (o 'tourist tax') con tres objetivos: 1️⃣ Hacer que el precio que pagan los visitantes cubra las 'externalidades negativas' o costes que su afluencia excesiva suponen para los residentes. 2️⃣ Incentivar a los turistas a que busquen otros destinos no tan congestionados, o al menos que lo hagan quienes son más sensibles al precio, que son los visitantes menos interesantes. 3️⃣ Reconciliar a la población local con el turismo, si el tourist tax permite mejorar los servicios públicos, lo que beneficiaría a todos los residentes y no solo a los propietarios de bares, hoteles y tiendas de souvenirs. ☕ Pero para que este impuesto tenga algún impacto en el número de visitantes y en la recaudación, ha de fijarse en niveles mucho más elevados que el precio de un café en el Barrio Gótico. 🤔 Entiendo que sería una decisión difícil para cualquier político, pero podría vincularse a un objetivo anual de visitantes (y reducirse cuando se llegue a él), y lo recaudado destinarse a programas de gasto público en zonas 'tensionadas', como promoción de viviendas sociales. 🔍 Lo que está claro es que este es uno de los debates más importantes y de difícil solución a los que se enfrenta el sector más importante de nuestra economía, del que dependen tantas pymes y puestos de trabajo. ❓En resumen ¿deben las ciudades intentar limitar el número de visitantes que reciben? Y si es así, ¿cuál debería ser la cuantía del 'tourist tax'? ¿Opiniones? How to make tourism work for locals and visitors alike https://lnkd.in/dgk-hzqW from The Economist
