Well now, that's pretty funny because I work in "entertainment" and do a lot of branding I think even if I didn't I would not consider it a good idea as "Official" comes off as arrogant and pretentious to most people unless you're about as known as Kylie Jenner or Justin Bieber. Why does she need her last name? How many Samantha Maria beauty vloggers are there, really?thischick wrote:I don't think you all know much about marketing and stuff... Seems like you're more intent on hating her.
Anyway that's a horrible sounding last name. I wouldn't use it. Plus she might want to change her name if she ever gets married which would be so much trouble if that's your entire brand.
Adding the or official is a great way to get the name you want if it's taken for instance samanthamaria might have already been taken on one of the social media accounts so you add the or official to still have that name.

Re: BeautyCrush - Part 9
I really think at this point in social media that "official" is just a means to distinguish an authentic account from fakes and most people grok that.

Re: BeautyCrush - Part 9
It's about BRANDING herself as SammiMaria something she's been calling herself besides beautycrush for years. Since someone else has that name on Instagram and probably Twitter too she added official. I think most people understand it's used for that reason or to distinguish her account from the fake accounts of which there are several. Official because it's the official account for her brand. That's what she is by the way. She isn't just some beauty blogger at this point. She's a big deal to her fans and probably to the brands who pay her.LifeIsPeachy wrote:Well now, that's pretty funny because I work in "entertainment" and do a lot of branding I think even if I didn't I would not consider it a good idea as "Official" comes off as arrogant and pretentious to most people unless you're about as known as Kylie Jenner or Justin Bieber.

I can guarantee you that the majority of people don't see this as pretentious and who cares about the few who do.
As someone who works on branding specifically not just in "entertainment" what you call yourself is very important and adding the (which plenty companies or people brands do i.e. Thepatriciabright) or official is the way to have the name and branding you want if what you originally wanted is taken.
Re: BeautyCrush - Part 9
"She isn't just a beauty blogger at this point", girl bye. Everyone getting famous for being themselves is a brand, that doesn't mean she's not "just a beauty blogger", what else is she? Anyway, there's a reason most big YT'ers don't add "official" or "the" but obviously you know better. Let's just disagree.thischick wrote:It's about BRANDING herself as SammiMaria something she's been calling herself besides beautycrush for years.

Re: BeautyCrush - Part 9
Vom. Those "I style my boyfriend's wardrobe" vids are so childish. They're a way to say 2 things:
1) Hey guys, I have a boyfriend!
2) Look how tiny I look in his shirts, like a delicate baby bird. Please comment on it.
Although Sammi probably doesn't look that small in his shirts, lol. Whenever I see Jason's arms on Sammi's insta I mistake them for hers >__> If I started wearing my boyfriend's clothes all the time he'd probably be irritated. I know I would be if I wen to get one of my favorite shirts and it had been worn and thrown in the laundry.

Re: BeautyCrush - Part 9
Yep lets disagree but I'll say this. When someone is making the high six figures or more to just be themselves. When they have sold out products. When they consult with brands more than you guys see and when they get paid just to wear clothes or products like Kim K they are more than a beauty blogger. I mean the girl launched her own clothing brand. How many people posting here have done that. She created a career outside of the rat race.LifeIsPeachy wrote:"She isn't just a beauty blogger at this point", girl bye.

So have others like Jacyln Hill who's stuff sells out fast or these other white and Asian gurus.
I know she has most of her success because she has light brown skin and blue eyes but she has turned it into an amazing business and career opportunity. She could do so much now if she doesn't screw it up.
Just beauty bloggers only do that without branching out.
I think a lot of people here are shortsighted because they are jealous and pretty much force hating these people.
I read for market research and to laugh here and there but to say these girls aren't business women behind the scenes when they are buying million dollar (or close to it) homes in expensive cities is crazy. That's a business, man.

Re: BeautyCrush - Part 9
What career and amazing business?? please! they have 5 ítems since 1 year in her store online ugly, expensive and copy of any other brand of low-end... is that business? her style is horrible lately... the boyfrien style is awful for her..she wants to be chic and she looks horrible lately. She has luck that has many supporters like me before and that in London the youtubers earn much and achieved many things with her videos... This does not happen in the rest of Europe... so successful? her videos are worse...she shows expensive products of skincare but her skin is not nice and i could continue with a lot of things.. It is not hate is reality...

Re: BeautyCrush - Part 9
and I'm very very very tired of hearing that we are jealous and haters when we say something negative, if your favorite actor makes a movie that you don't like, don't like and that´s all , Why if a youtuber makes videos that you don't like and you say it you have to be a hater and be jelaous? enough is enough! at the moment majority of her followers must be 15 years old and for them she must be a goddes.. but for me no. There are things that I like but right now there are more things that do not

If you're making a profit despite not being that great you're doing something right. Obviously or we would watch her and talk about her thus keeping her relevant. If someone can't admit that then I think they're jealous haters because it's just facts.
We can say her weave sucks, videos don't seem like she puts much effort in them and Jason seems like a prick.
We can't say that she isn't influential. She makes companies money because people buy what she wears. She launched a clothing line and sold the items, she travels for free + tons of other stuff.
She's a business woman and I'm sure her taxes prove that.
If you can't admit that about her and these other youtubers who do this full time than you're either incredibly stupid or you're so blinded by jealousy fueled hate that you'd rather pretend they have no success. Bloggers have landed jobs with major companies. That's amazing.

Re: BeautyCrush - Part 9
Lol. You guys sound so butthurt.
From a branding point of view, it makes no sense to have her as SamanthaMariaOfficial in one place and then just SamanthaMaria elsewhere. Branding is about consistency. From a marketing standpoint, it's just smart.

Re: BeautyCrush - Part 9
not to be creepy but when you google her full name her businesses show up. "Beautycrush limited" is registered to a normal house adress. I hope this is the adress of her last house! otherwise people could easilly find her. someone so "big" in the business wouldnt be that dumb, right? on the other hand, i never knew her full name even though i've been watching her since the beginning.

It's very easy to find when you want to know more about novem and Knight. Like any business. It gave Jason's name which we already know and her namejustsayin wrote:not to be creepy but when you google her full name her businesses show up.

Re: BeautyCrush - Part 9
Btw I do believe the novem and knight business just worked out because of Jason. I don't know why but I'm under the impression it's mostly his company, I mean in terms of funding
I wonder if Samantha really makes a whole lot of money (I know she has one millions subs but in terms of video views she's not really high, and I don't know why I feel like she could be making a lot more)

Re: BeautyCrush - Part 9
I mean, I don't even know where to start. I realize you're on some sort of crusade, I just can't figure out what point you're trying to make anymore. That she makes money off of YT?

I don't see a lot of "hate" for Sammi here, a lot of other YT'ers get it pretty bad on GG but here it's mostly constructive criticism. Where's the hate? Saying she's only successful because of her skin tone and eyes is fucked up, even us "haters" give her more credit than that.

There are 7 companies registered at that address including Sprinkle of Glitter and Inthefrow.
