I guess I'm disappointed that burton would allow itself to get pimped by HP to sell free and highly discounted logo services. If that's what 'building a brand' is all about then, well, Burton you suck.

if there was ever a better time to switch to rome, I don't know when that would be... ;)
- I have some burton bindings and pants but I never fully jumped on the burton bandwagon, even when I was selling a ton of it manging a shop. Just too big.– kld1/2

These HP websites are the inspiration that sooo many 'creative' marketing cunts have been looking for! Now they can create their own logos and brand strategy....
FFS!

I find it funny how people get all caught up in snowboard brands.
"I'm not going to buy Burton anymore because they did a commercial with HP." Who cares? Congrats to Jake for building such a huge and successful business.
I don't know about others, but I buy my gear for how it fits and how it performs. When it comes to boots, board bindings I never look at the brand... I buy the best fit and option for me. And when it comes to outerwear I buy what visually appeals to me... not what brand it is.

There a disconnect between this page
http://www.logoworks.com/brochur…
and this one
http://h30393.www3.hp.com/printi…
does burton farm out brochures to HP?
- rhetorical question of course– kld

I'd forgotten all about that site..
sweet fancy moses..i wouldn't get terribly worried about something like this...anyone that would use a site like that to create their own branding or logo...well...frankly, you wouldn't want them as a client anyhow...
they're along the lines of folks that would try to con you into coming up with a design for their site or ad campaign, then either complain about the cost, or say 'well..i've got a (cousin brother nephew etc) that has photoshop, and they can do it for $50'...
folks like that DESERVE crap logos and clipart nonsense...
i get a kick out of seeing Burton and HP hocking stuff like this online, when you can be sure as hell NO one from either of those companies would ever actually use it...

- They look for web people every year. I wonder if it's just high turnover or they just can't get good people in VT– joyride1/3
  they have done nothing but expand that dept. exponentially every year they have had it. that is why.– madirish2/3
  why not just use logoworks instead of hiring people ... ha!– eegrek3/3

Jake needs sponsors too! I just wish it was a cooler company like cannon or nikon. This isn't their first partner up anyway. They've done shit with Motorola and Apple. There gear is tech and I'll buy it till I die. Except endevour is looking pretty appealing if only I could get a deal...

yeah, it's just strange taking a company with roots in good design and selling cut rate logos with their image. The whole HP campaign and this logo site seem at odds.

Funny, I read the Burton manifesto and company history where "Burton" explained how they did not figure out and or understand the marketplace at first and now... if you have seen the HP tv commercial Burton claims that their audience did catch on to their brilliance and it took some time for people to realize what a great brand it was... What a flip-flop bullshit arrogant position.

this is a stupid discussion. HP prolly called Jake...
HP: "hey Jake lets do an all expenses paid ad with a helicopter and you and your buds in the backcountry and profile your company and we'll provide Burton with ink cartridges for life"...
Jake: "fuck yeah you're on".
