In this discussion, you will first introduce yourself to your peers. Tell us a little about yourself. You are also asked to share your thoughts on the importance of brands to you as a consumer. What comes to your mind when you hear the word brand? In this discussion you will share your thoughts about a favorite brand of yours and why you chose the brand. Also, you will discuss how the emotional connection with a brand develops.
In your initial post, answer the following:
- Introduce yourself to your peers. Where are you from? What is your educational and/or professional background? What are your hobbies or interests?

- When making a purchasing decision, is the brand important to you? What about the brand resonates with you?
- Determine whether your favorite brand has a stated “brand promise.” If so, what is it? If not, identify one from another company of your choice. Remember the brand promise is usually different than a tagline or slogan.
- Do you have an emotional connection with the brand? If so, can you describe it briefly? Consider factors such as trust, respect, and other strong feelings.
- When considering a purchase, do you look first for your favorite brand? This may be considered top-of-mind awareness or the first brand to come to mind. Provide an example of a brand that is on top of your mind.
