Sometimes bad branding happens to good people. There's no shame in it if it happens to you. The important thing is to know you are not alone. 

It can also be helpful to share your story with others, and hear about other experiences. Maybe learn something. Maybe just have a really good laugh.

We've primed the pump a bit, asking friends and colleagues to share their tales of branding woe. Read. Enjoy. Share. Tweet. And if you have your own story of branding bile, please share it with everyone. You can stay anonymous to protect brands living and dead. We're all friends here. We will ask you for your name and email, but we'll only publish your nom de guerre.
