E) When the manufacturer wants the individual products to feed off each others' success - now that's a clever strategy! Get that synergy going!

D) When the manufacturer wants greater control over positioning the brand is also a good choice. Individual branding allows more flexibility in how each product is marketed.

Haha, I bet the marketing team loves coming up with all these individual brand names. Keeping track must be a nightmare!

I agree with Gladys, option C makes the most sense. You wouldn't want to lump a power tool and a kitchen appliance under the same family brand.

I see your point, Jutta. Having greater control over brand positioning could be another valid reason to use individual brands.

But what about when the manufacturer wants greater control over positioning the brand? Wouldn't that be a reason to use individual brands too?

I agree with Alton. It makes sense to have separate brands for products with different uses.

I think a company should use individual brands when the products vary in their usage and performance.

C) When the products vary in their usage and performance seems like the most logical answer to me. Different products require different branding strategies.
