Press Releases - March 19, 2019

Technology & Telecommunications Industry Ranked #3 in MBLM’s Brand Intimacy 2019 Study

The technology & telecommunications industry ranked third in MBLM’s Brand Intimacy 2019 Study, which is the largest study of brands based on emotions, climbing up one spot from the 2018 study. Apple ranked #1 in the industry for the fourth year, followed by Samsung and Google. The remaining brands in the Top 10 for the technology & telecommunications industry were: Sony, Microsoft, AT&T, HP, Verizon, Dell and LG.

Brand Intimacy is defined as the emotional science that measures the bonds we form with the brands we use and love. Top intimate brands in the U.S. continued to significantly outperform the top brands in the Fortune 500 and S&P indices in both revenue and profit over the past 10 years, according to the Brand Intimacy 2019 Study.

“With its presence and dominance in our modern day living, technology & telecommunications continues to build emotional bonds with consumers,” stated Mario Natarelli, managing partner, MBLM. “Brands that are part of the smartphone ecosystem – device manufacturers, content providers, access brands and apps – have higher rates of Brand Intimacy than those that do not. Device manufacturers performed particularly well, which suggests hardware brands are benefitting the most from the increasingly important role that smartphones play in our lives.”

Additional notable findings in the technology & telecommunications industry include:

  • Apple was the #1 brand for both women and men
  • Apple was also #1 for millennials, users over 35 and users with incomes of $50,000 or more
  • Google was the #1 brand for users with incomes under $50,000

MBLM explored the tech giant Google in a piece released in conjunction with the findings, “What’s Going on with Google?” The article delves into the Brand Intimacy profile of Google and its recent advances and setbacks. It discusses its Brand Intimacy performance, notably, its strong linkage to the archetype of enhancement and its success at connecting with millennials.

The Brand Intimacy 2019 Study contains the most comprehensive rankings of brands based on emotion, analyzing the responses of 6,200 consumers and 56,000 brand evaluations across 15 industries in the U.S., Mexico and UAE. MBLM’s reports and interactive Data Dashboard, which features a brand ranking tool, showcase the performance of almost 400 brands, revealing the characteristics and intensity of the consumer bonds.
