granola bars under the same brand. This can be a way to leverage the
reputation and recognition of an existing brand to promote new
products.

clothing line. Co-branding can help companies reach new customers and

these when making decisions about branding strategy.

line to a new market or category. There are several risks associated with this

product categories, it can dilute the brand's image and equity, making it
less recognizable and valuable.

line can compete with and negatively impact sales of existing products
within the same brand.
• Failure of the new product: There is always the risk that the new product
in the brand extension line will not be successful in the market, which
can result in financial losses for the company.
• Customer confusion: If a brand extension is not well-matched to the
parent brand, it can create confusion among customers and damage the
brand's reputation.
• Additional costs: Brand extensions can require additional marketing,
advertising and research and development costs, which can strain the
company's resources and impact bottom-line profitability.
• Time and resources: New ventures require heavy investment in terms of
time and resources and it could be hard to take care of multiple fronts at
the same time.
Overall, brand or line extension can be a risky strategy, but it can also be
a way for a company to grow and diversify its product offerings if done
thoughtfully and strategically.
