See Old Positioning

"When you're going so fast, you can't stop and think about a 'brand'."

"It's good enough, just get it out the door."

"We don't have a large world-class marketing team yet, so we need brand police."

OLD POSITIONING

Ring's mission is to reduce crime in neighborhoods and empower consumers by creating a Ring of Security around homes and communities with its suite of smart home security products: Ring Video Doorbell, Ring Video Doorbell Pro, Ring Stick Up Cam and the new Ring Floodlight Cam.

With these security devices, Ring has created the neighborhood watch for the digital age and continues to keep homes around the world safe.

With Ring, you're always home.
