A detailed analysis of the 7 main emotional dimensions along which brands connect to their consumers
The Brandhouse Emotion 100™ report
http://www.sourcewire.com/releases/rel_display.php...

The report, produced in conjunction with The Centre for Brand Analysis, is the result of an empirical study, conducted amongst a nationally-representative sample of 2000 UK consumers


Brandhouse yesterday unveiled a new study, the Brandhouse Emotion 100™ report, that maps, for the first time, the emotional brandscape of Britain.

The report, (contact Mark Rae 020 7985 7373 for more information) produced in conjunction with The Centre for Brand Analysis, is the result of an empirical study, conducted amongst a nationally-representative sample of 2000 UK consumers, of an issue that has, to date, been largely unexplored.

Although it is increasingly acknowledged that positive emotional connections between brands and consumers generate higher loyalty, support price premiums, defend brands from aggressive competition and create a buffer in economic downturn, there has, until now, been no systematic study of the issue and the emotional factors and mechanisms at work.   Brandhouse

Michelle Obama still has time for the occasional copy of Vogue Michelle Obama: Vogue cover girl

In her new role as the White House's 'Mom-in-Chief', she runs the First Family while her husband runs the country.

But as you can see, Michelle Obama still has time for the occasional copy of Vogue.As the cover girl, of course.
Every first lady since Lou Hoover - save Bess Truman - has been featured in the high-fashion magazine, but Mrs Obama is only the second to grace the cover.

Celebrated celebrity shutterbug Annie Leibovitz photographed Mrs. Obama, who wore a magenta silk dress by inaugural gown designer Jason Wu, for the issue, which hits newsstands in New York and Los Angeles Feb. 17.

“First and foremost, I wear what I love,” the First Lady says in her Vogue cover story. “If I can have any impact, I want women to feel good about themselves and have fun with fashion.”
