Are you aware of the studies or surveys that you participate in actually do provide valuable insights into the lifestyle and opinions of men and women in most age groups? I am presenting some interesting survey results of a study/survey conducted by the MBLM company (pronounced as “emblem”.)
MBLM has several studies and reports to share;
To better understand this impact, marketing firm, MBLM, has added to its annual Brand Intimacy Report, the largest study of brands based on emotions, with it’s BFF report which shares more specifics in a variety of demographics and other comparative factors.

Top 10 Brand Intimate Famous Figures:
Today, entertainers, athletes, politicians, impresarios, and spiritual leaders drive many of the trends, beliefs, and messages we consume. Think about the world we live in and the impact they have on the products and services we buy, use, and sell. In this way, they are undeniably powerful brands.
To complement our annual ranking of brands based on emotion, we’ve released our BFF (Brand-intimate Famous Figures) study, which shares the most intimate living celebrity brands in the U.S. While the study covers 25 of today’s most well-known personalities, this article will focus primarily on the top 10. These results reveal the uniqueness of American culture today, with the top 10 representing two presidents, a former first lady, actors, a business luminary, musicians, and a religious leader.
