		<description>Another great post Kate!  It caught my attention because many years ago I took a summer telemarketing job for Disney.  The training for that position located here in Kansas is the same they require for every employee worldwide...what an experience :)</description>

		<description>I recently saw a video where Pluto chases a kid around a theme park. After reading this article I know now the actor in costume was fired in 10 seconds.

What could kid do to him to make him so angry. I mean, every normal person can control his emotions if he&#039;s getting teased by a kid.

Nice blog.</description>

		<description>Thanks for the complimentary comment, Betty!

I wholeheartedly agree with your main key to branding: as tempting as it may be to keep old materials around (just in case!), once you re-brand they should be absolutely gone.  The only thing worse than lame branding is the confusing, wishy-washy kind.</description>

		<description>Kate,
I really enjoy your articles.  They always offer some interesting tidbits.  Keep it up!  On this one, I couldn&#039;t agree more with what you&#039;ve said.  Particularly about teaching your employees the rules.  It does make a huge difference.  Employees have to realize the importance of branding because everything can&#039;t be monitored - they have to realize how much they and what they do represent the company - regardless of the size of the company.  First key to new branding - throw everything out with the old branding!</description>
