28 Tribal Branding Program The survey results suggest that there is support for developing a tribal brand for forest products that could be based on a unique set of tribal values: Traditional forest stewardship ethic Spiritual and cultural respect for forests and land High quality timber resource
29 Tribal Branding Program First Things First 1) Do the tribes want to proceed with the development of a tribal brand for forest products? 2) Do the tribes want to proceed with a cooperative marketing program? 3) Do the tribes want to proceed with a tribal certification program?
30 Tribal Branding Program Strategic Issues 1) Scope of a tribal brand national vs. regional vs. enterprise specific solid wood products vs. generic forest products (incl. NTFP s) 2) Brand Development (who takes the lead in the development of a tribal brand and quality standards?) ITC tribal forest products brand council outside consulting firm 3) How would a branding program be funded? start up funding programmatic funding 4) Which tribal enterprises wish to participate?
31 Tribal International Marketing Program The survey results also suggest that a large number of tribes are interested in learning how to access international markets to provide a measure of protection against downturns in the domestic markets and/or to receive higher prices for their forest products. While domestic market remains in recession, US exports of wood in products increased by 29.6% in 2010 Given the interest by the Obama administration in increasing US exports by 50% by 2015, how might Native American tribes take advantage of this effort to increase their international marketing capacity and expertise?
