Small business branding or Product branding ?
As a very quick definition, small business branding is process of marketing various products or services under the name of a company. The objective to create an experience or expectation that the client comes to associate with your business name and products.
On the other hand product branding is the companies marketing strategy for promoting individual products without the company’s name being immediately associated with the product in it’s advertising campaigns or even on the product labeling.
An example might be an established company own supplier a lower quality product that is suited to a particular market segment and separate to the quality products desired by their high end niche market.

Product Branding
An example of product branding that will be familiar with is Lexus. Lexus are the top end vehicles manufactured by Toyota. The Toyota name is not mentioned in any marketing material for Lexus. The Lexus range of cars have their own logo, websites, marketing materials and a very different marketing strategy.
However, one interesting aspect of this product branding is that it is common knowledge that people are well aware that the Lexus brand is very much associated with Toyota. One might speculate that this has encouraged Toyota customers to perceive the higher end Toyota range with the quality and styling of the Lexus range.
There can be more than one way to appreciate any marketing stratgey.
What is the point ?
Why bother with individual product branding, it my small business branding is so strong that the product could leverage off the business name.
One advantage is that having a suite of individual products allows you to test the market without damaging the small business brand.
You can introduce an entire range of products, each with individual branding and let the market inform you which they like and in turn what they are prepared to pay for.
