Q1:
The brand name, which will be perfect for her business, is "Moonmoon Coffee Shop."

Q2: Yes, as a customer, we all consider brands in our minds because we have a good picture in our minds about that brand's product, which makes us purchase that brand's product by ignoring the other brand products. For a customer, the first impression is the last, and if the first impression of the product is good, then customers start using that product only.

Customers prefer to buy these things only when there is any skim related to that product. It will increase the business's sales, and the customers will get satisfaction after purchasing the product. Customers place to buy the right quality products at low prices, and if if the business is referring any scheme to the customers, then they automatically by Rose products from the company. It will help the business to grow and try to take the competitive advantage over their competitors in the marketplace.
