Please keep your hat on

Will's description of the demise and resurgence of Snapple is a salutary lesson in how reckless marketers can be - not just with brand essence, but with heritage and iconography. The jinxed replacement of Coke Classic is not the only brand failure.

So a quick plea to whoever eventually takes over as brand steward of Innocent drinks. Please keep those bobble hats! Genius.

Sometimes...the brand gets a bit overmanaged for me. But I just loved this folkiness and the use of cause related maketing with such a light-touch.
