953761
1) Why do they do it- They make a LOT of money using child labor in 3rd world countries.\n\n2)why do people still support them by buying their products - People buy them because the company does GREAT marketing, like paying super sports heroes ot have their logo. So another good question, why do multimillionaire sports figures advertise for them? ANSWER: They are as greedy as the company.\n\n3) there products that we know for SURE aren't made from child labour - Yes, most (not all) products made in the US are not made with child labor because it is illegal. But, to be 110% sure, you would have to see it produced yourself.

The brand name which reaches well across the world is termed as branding across the borders...there might be companies in ur area which is familiar only in ur locality nd it has no value when u go outside it...a few companies have its branch all over the world and does good business at all the places that too without needing to change its name for any region where they establish it!! Hope u got it!!

He was three\nmonths late in filing a name for the business, and he threatened\nto call his company Apple Computers if the other colleagues\ndidn't suggest a better name by 5 O'clock.\n\nCISCO\nIt is not an acronym as popularly believed. It is short for San\nFrancisco.\n\nCompaq\nThis name was formed by using COMp, for computer, and PAQ\nto denote a small integral object.\n\nCorel\nThe name was derived from the founder's name Dr. Michael\nCowpland. It stands for COwpland REsearch Laboratory.\n\nGoogle\nThe name started as a joke boasting about the amount of\ninformation the search-engine would be able to search. It was\noriginally named 'Googol', a word for the number represented by\n1 followed by 100 zeros. After founders - Stanford graduate\nstudents Sergey Brin and Larry Page presented their project to\nan angel investor, they received a cheque made out to 'Google'\n\nHotmail\nFounder Jack Smith got the idea of accessing e-mail via the web\nfrom a computer anywhere in the world. When Sabeer Bhatia\ncame up with the business plan for the mail service, he tried all\nkinds of names ending in 'mail' and finally settled for hotmail as\nit included the letters "html" - the programming language used to\nwrite web pages. It was initially referred to as HoTMaiL with\nselective uppercasing.\n\nHewlett Packard\nBill Hewlett and Dave Packard tossed a coin to decide whether\nthe company they founded would be called Hewlett-Packard or\nPackard-Hewlett.\n\nIntel\nBob Noyce and Gordon Moore wanted to name their new\ncompany 'Moore Noyce' but that was already trademarked by a\nhotel chain so they had to settle for an acronym of INTegrated\nELectronics.\n\nLotus (Notes)\nMitch Kapor got the name for his company from 'The Lotus\nPosition' or 'Padmasana'. Kapor used to be a teacher of\nTranscendental Meditation of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi.\n\nMicrosoft\nCoined by Bill Gates to represent the company that was devoted\nto MICROcomputer SOFTware.

The popular radio\ncompany at the time was called Victrola.\n\nORACLE\nLarry Ellison and Bob Oats were working on a consulting project\nfor the CIA (Central Intelligence Agency). The code name for the\nproject was called Oracle (the CIA saw this as the system to give\nanswers to all questions or something such). The project was\ndesigned to help use the newly written SQL code by IBM. The\nproject eventually was terminated but Larry and Bob decided to\nfinish what they started and bring it to the world. They kept the\nname Oracle and created the RDBMS engine.

it's not just Disney, look at almost any children's literature and you will find the same thing. for one, they want the kids to have something to struggle with, for another, the parents would get in the way of their adventures.

Most people avoid silly names because it would make the kids the center of attention.  Celebrities always want to be the center of attention.\n\nThat may explain why so many kids of celebrities need therapists.

it's because of the medical legal issue.  All drug manufacturers by law has to disclosed all possible side effects (however rarely they occur) on their advertisements including TV, magazines, etc...

This happens a lot in America too, and I suspect in most countries. The advertisers want to appeal to our sense of patriotism or make us feel an identity with their product. It's not illegal, but it sometimes does feel immoral.

It depends on the brand.

The label that says keep out of reach of children is on the bottle - so you need to keep the bottle out of their reach. if you were supposed to keep the medicine away from them it would have this warning written really small on those chewable children's tablets.

Usually from Chinese or Taiwanese factories that manufacture them unbranded and then brand them with the logo of the buyer. This by the way is true for most "well respected" brands too.

Simply to make ur product more visible. U hitch-hike ur brand with a popular person, to make ur brand itself popular.

It's the large corporate companies like macdonalds that are to blame, and the peer pressure among the kids to eat this stuff. It's a blimmin tough job as a parent telling your kids not to eat the stuff and then they blame you for it. The schools should make the kids exercise more and out of school clubs should be cheaper so that everyone could afford for  children to do sport.

Some purchases are made from these sources, but more than anything it's branding.  When you go to purchase a product if you don't know about it you won't purchase it.  If it's something you need, then your more likly to buy a brand that you know than one you don't.\n\nThere are subliminal issues too that make you feel like you need a certain product.  Advertising and branding are big business because if you want a product to succeed, people need to be aware of it.

That's exactly how it happens in business.\n\nProduce fully accountable results which show you are worthy of repeat customers spending their hard earned money on or die on the vine.\n\nHey but what the hell - to use an overused liberal cliche (which of course they can't or won't back up with anything more than worthless rhetoric)- kids are our most valuable asset.

Because celebs are regarded as trend setters.  If the public sees them wearing or using a certain product its a free ad to the consumer by the manufacturer.
