What happens when the trademark owner takes protecting their trademark too far as to be deemed as domineering? The best examples of crossing the line can be witnessed with non-profit organizations. Non-profit organizations working towards the same cure should all be the best of pals, right?
After all, the more money generated for their cause helps fund research to find a cure. Unfortunately, this is not reality. The reality is that non-profits are just as fiercely competitive as for profit businesses. They do not like to share funds or be associated with other non-profits. Susan G. Back in , the Wall Street Journal published an article on Non-profit organizations battling each other over trademark infringements.
Carol Cone, founder of Cone Communications, was a major force in this development. Research underwritten by her small Boston-based public relations firm proved that, given the same cost and quality, more than half of consumers would switch from a particular store or brand to one associated with a good cause. Armed with this data, Carol Cone set out to teach America how to do well by doing good. And in , she set about helping Avon cosmetics stake out a claim on breast cancer.
The fulcrum that made this maneuver possible was the pink ribbon. About two inches long, the original Avon pink ribbon is a weighty and formidable piece of jewelry, half pink enamel and half gold cast, winced in the middle by a flowering gold rose.
The pink signaled breast cancer, but the addition of the color gold and the rose are distinctly Avon. The Susan G. Komen Foundation began offering a pink rhinestone brooch. Carolee Jewelry designed another one—a female runner in midstride, flowing loop ribbon in hand. Nightshirts, angel statuettes, teddy bears, sports clothes, credit cards, Daytimers all hit the market and, with increasing speed, other companies joined in, each offering its own version of the traditional ribbon.
It is a quality that the breast cancer awareness ribbon both captures and enables. The pink ribbon is not indicative of any of that. Of course, not everyone in the breast cancer movement thinks that commercial benefit is bad.
And according to the American Cancer Society, the percentage of women getting annual mammograms and clinical breast exams has more than doubled over the last decade.
