Take it from me, owning a Mini Cooper turned me from a passenger to a driver. Its compact, stylish, and overall fun design made driving exciting and an activity I truly learned to love. But that’s not the part that makes MINI a bona fide brand hero. It’s the purchase experience that blew our minds. From start to finish of our little baby’s birth we were continuously kept in the loop about what was going on. From where she was on the assembly line to where she was in the world! She was born in London, then traveled on a ship crossing the ocean, we knew when she arrived in Montreal, and when she crossed Canada until she was sitting here in Vancouver….waiting to be picked up.
Being a part of that whole delivery experience not only validated our purchase choice, but also instantly built our trust in Mini’s capabilities and service. Think about what little add-ons you can do to make a big difference to your customers. It’s worth it!

Blo’s concept is simple. For around 30 dollars and in about 30 minutes, you have a blow out style. No cuts, no color, just WASH. BLOW. GO. And that is precisely what makes this styling blow dry bar a hit with several locations in Vancouver and Toronto. As a brand they deliver on their promise and that is key.
The other area they are extremely crafty in is marketing. If there is a term where the word “Blo” fits, they are using it. And not just the obvious too. For their blog, just the simple addition of a hyphen gives them the best blog name ever: BLO-G. They are consistent with their messaging, know their target market, and aren’t afraid to use the boldness of their main brand identity color – hot pink!
Take a minute and peruse their website, or better yet, take 30 minutes and get yourself a “do” to spice things up…as they like to say, “You’re not cheating on your hairdresser!“
