BrandBucket legal/ethical question?
I have come to the conclusion with a client that they need to rebrand. Their existing domain and brand are far too generic. They also have two localised versions of the same business which I think would be better unified.
Trouble is that coming up with the new brand is tough. We've had some ideas but they are invariably already in use by someone, somewhere.
I came across BrandBucket recently whilst just searching for inspiration. There is a name and accompaning .com domain on their that both myself and the client think could work. It is billed at $3,500 though - not an investment they are looking to make based on the size of the business.
I've just checked and the .co.uk version is available.
What's the standpoint legally of buying the co.uk and running with that? Given that whilst sitting on branbucket for sale it isn't effectively used by a business. Plus this is a UK business and BrandBucket is US-based.
Really interested to hear some views on this.
Thanks, Dan
