Branding

On Thursday of this week, William Faulkner from Logopak came into class to talk about product branding. I also found this article that says consumers usually follow their gut when choosing a brand. The article relates this to dating websites and how people choose a compatible mate by following their gut and not using the rational list of personality traits given by the matchmaking website. This relates to how consumers choose products and which brand they use because, like William said, there usually isn’t much of a difference between brands; it’s all based on emotional feelings toward a product or brand. Brand managers should think more about how to win over consumers in a way that makes them feel comfortable in their decision to buy your product. When was the last time you chose a certain brand over another? What was the basis of your decision?
