Bet’s you can’t brand a person, Bets your whole reasoning for branding a person makes zero sense, you can’t change a person, they have to do it on their own.
They could certainly use this for a class project. No, not likely they will be successful, but they will learn a lot on the way. Especially about themselves. Isn’t that what college is for?
Bets is grasping at straws as she is talking. She doesn’t know what she is talking about and Tiff knows it. Both are already two confused college coeds who want to start a branding business for other confused college coeds? Oh boy.
I was no lost soul. I had a goal and wanted to meet it. I wanted to graduate with honors as the first in my entire family history on both sides (going back to the original immigrants in 1787 and 1819 respectively) to graduate from university. I completed my Masters in 1990, daring anyone to get a university degree better (which would be PhD) or the same level.
An agency for guidance counseling, job placement (marketing a student’s skills to employers; internships). Colleges already have those departments. Athletes now have NIL. B n T would need to, first, re-brand themselves into a recognizable, accepted business before re-branding college students. A clever moniker would be a good start.
Actually this might work for both of them. They are both strongly opinionated, both strong personalities and (since Tiff has grown), decent people. I wonder if they can help me rebrand from geek to slightly geeky bad boy.
This sounds crazy enough to become a hit, Bets and Tiffany could do it! In the past, Tiffany has completely changed people. But it didn’t work because she tried to make them become something they weren’t. Now she’s grown up and has Bets that would understand others. They would would together to find what would be best for their costumers. I hope that Bernice goes to them, annoyed because they’re doing that job without having psychological preparation, and ends up being helped by them. She seriously needs to change.
Man, the quality of horsefeathers and mud slinging really suffers when LoveLaxitive is on vacation – or community service – or on the lamb from jilted girlfriends – whatever he’s doing.
It feels like they’re just redoing the same setup multiple days in a row, with no actual forward progress. And eventually the arc will end with everyone back where they started.
Oh lord, it’s Tiffany’s Epic Pool Party™ all over again.
Not sure what’s more fun, seeing the mischief they are about to get in, or reading the comment section and seeing how many different ways folks have to be snarky about Bets in particular! Happy Friday Folks !
It’s sad that Bets gave up her website. She was happy, animated and making good money. Now she’s all excited to start something again but she fails to realize that with Tiffany involved it will end in disaster. I guess they had to kill Bets N Gun so this partnership could begin.
i can see how $ could be made out of this effort; college students are a great population of consumers that businesses want to target, for whatever product they are selling. If someone comes along and organizes a population (on some campus) into “brands”, that could be useful information to CEOs of businesses who are looking to tailor products for different groups, and which could be sold to them.
This whole story line has me cringing. Both from the idea that it requires someone else to tell you how to be yourself and the whole “branding” label. I’m a country girl. Branding is what you do to cattle. With a very hot iron. And it ain’t changeable. Rebranding a cow generally gets you a felony charge.

There is,a precedent, I guess. I mean, I got a nickname in grade 7, more a,play on words based on my last name but it stuck for many years.
But I would never pay for a,rebranding. It has to change on its own. Plus you need to grow a thick skin.

Question is, Do college kids have any disposable income to spend on “branding”? Maybe if you spice it up, make it about getting a date, or something…

“Self-improvement” appears to be a huge business, judging from the number of ads I see.
